 compliant smart cards. Today Identita announces two new three-factor devices available for shipment in October 2006.

1. A biometric display card. An ISO 7810/7816 compliant card capable of meeting all credit card and secure card requirements. A card holder performs a biometric "match on card" of their fingerprint which would be validated by the secure microcontroller embedded within the card. After verification of the fingerprint the LED display on the card will output an OTP (one time passcode) value which the user can then input into any device for confirmation of their identity.

2. A biometric audio card. An ISO 7810/7816 compliant card capable of meeting all credit card and secure card requirements. A card holder performs a biometric "match on the card" of their fingerprint which would be validated by the secure microcontroller embedded within the card. After verification of the fingerprint the card will emit an audible acoustic signature which carries an encrypted OTP (one time passcode) value which any device capable of accepting sound (Computer, Smart Phone, PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) A handheld computer for managing contacts, appointments and tasks. It typically includes a name and address database, calendar, to-do list and note taker, which are the functions in a personal information manager (see PIM). , BlackBerry, Tablet) can record for confirmation of their identity.

Both products are available in a non-biometric version (two-factor) which is activated by a pressure sensitive switch on the card then protected by a pin.
