ISMANING, Germany, May 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- SCM
Microsystems, Inc.
(NASDAQ:SCMMNASDAQ:PrimeNASDAQ:Standard:NASDAQ:SMY), a leading
provider of solutions that open the Digital World, now offers its
newest CHIPDRIVE(R) solution for business productivity, aimed at
the transportation industry: CHIPDRIVE Driver Card Company Edition.
"Commercial transportation companies throughout the EU are legally
obligated to collect and archive driver- and vehicle-specific data
so that drivers' driving and resting times can be better monitored,
and road accidents caused by overtired drivers can be reduced.
SCM's new CHIPDRIVE Driver Card Company Edition is an affordable,
easy to deploy and easy to use solution that automates data
collection to help transport companies comply with driver data
collection requirements," said Stephan Rasch, Product Manager with
SCM Microsystems. CHIPDRIVE Driver Card Company Edition is an
enhancement of the successful CHIPDRIVE Driver Card from SCM
Microsystems. Both solutions enable commercial drivers to read-out
driver relevant data while on the road and to transfer it to their
employers using only a notebook PC and a smart card reader. The new
CHIPDRIVE Driver Card Company Edition solution also enables the
collection and read-out of relevant vehicle data, including
tachographic data, providing transportation companies with critical
information about the mileage, time on the road and performance of
individual vehicles and entire fleets. This data can be used to
monitor vehicle condition and aid in scheduling maintenance and
repair, furthering the safety objectives of companies and
regulators alike. New features of CHIPDRIVE Driver Card Company
Edition include the ability to illustrate and diagram the data that
is collected to better evaluate and demonstrate drive and vehicle
status. The new solution also includes a new "authority export"
capability, which enables the rapid transmittal of information
requested by regulatory bodies, including detailed data about
individual driers, vehicles and times. This data can also be
filtered and diagrammed to document failures and offenses of
drivers, in case of safety violations or evaluations. "Feedback
from our customers indicated that they loved the ease of use and
convenience of the original CHIPDRIVE Driver Card, and wanted to
see additional features that would make the product even more
useful. CHIPDRIVE Driver Card Company Edition offers the same
convenient read-out, evaluation and archiving as the original
version, and also offers new capabilities that allow companies and
regulators to review and evaluate more data, more quickly," added
Rasch. CHIPDRIVE Driver Card Company Edition is available as
software on CD-ROM. Furthermore available is the CHIPDRIVE Driver
Card Company Solution, which includes CHIPDRIVE Driver Card Company
Edition software on CD-ROM and an SCR3311 smart card reader, and
the CHIPDRIVE Driver Card Professional Kit, which includes
CHIPDRIVE Driver Card Company Edition software on CD-ROM, one
SCR3311 smart card reader, 10 SCR3310 smart card readers and 10
driver card licences. More information can be found at
