Title: LASER BAND TECHNOLOGY IN THE ITALIAN EID CARD |
 |
In difference to other European eIDs the Italian eID card (carta d’identità elettronica (CIE)) uses a so called laser band. The laser band is a laser optical engraved zone on which up to 1.8 MByte of data can be stored. This makes the laser band technology superior to smart chips or RFID that have less storage capacity today (up to 64 KByte of data). The problem of this technology is that a proprietary reader infrastructure is needed; only Italy is issuing such an infrastructure so far. For the most European countries the laser band and the data stored there is not be usable and will not be usable in future.
