A smart card reader is a device for reading and writing data to smart cards. A smart card reader can extract data from an Emirates ID card and the information can be saved in a database for easy access and retrieval.
Smart card readers
have their names since they can read the data from a tag smartly. It is smart because inserting or showing the card automatically derives the data on the chip. A smart card reader can have different shapes, sizes, colors, and designs. Smart readers are of various types, including contact and contactless based, with USB cables and without USB cables.
In contactless, the card can tap on the reader, which will derive the data from the card. The contactless card reader works on radio frequency. The reader detects the frequency of the card, and that’s how the reader gets the data from the card. In the contact reader, the card is inserted into the smart card reader, which reads the chip on the card and gets the data which is stored on the chip. Smart readers also can write data on the card apart from reading the data from the card.
