October 23, 2002 -- San Diego-based Cubic Corporation (AMEX: CUB) today announced the availability of its new high-speed “smart” chip technology – the platform needed for “contactless” biometric identification cards and new multiple-application access systems. Cubic’s new CUB132 contactless microchip offers 32KB of memory, 16 times more than is currently available with the company’s popular 2KB GO CARD®. The GO CARD® is currently in use by the Washington Metropolitan Transit Authority (WMATA) SmarTrip® system, and being expanded to public transportation in Baltimore and suburban Maryland and Virginia, creating the first regional public transit fare collection system. Cubic’s smart card technology also is in use by transit authorities in Chicago and on its way to being implemented in Minneapolis, Los Angeles and San Diego. This quantity of memory that is available with CUB132 chip is not required for basic public transit, but it is needed for high-tech ID and other access systems that will meet the public's desire for one card that serves multiple needs, including security. The CUB132 chip makes possible new combination-transit or non-transit-based contactless smart card applications -- such as fingerprint and facial recognition identification -- that rely on the ability to read and write data securely at extremely high speeds. The new chip could be used for any number of access control applications, including those used by public and private employers, airports and public transit authorities. The CUB132 chip utilizes the world's fastest non-volatile memory and meets long-endurance, high-speed, low-power standards. The new Cubic chip represents the first availability of this kind of technology for smart card-based applications. Larger memory contactless cards are ideal for biometrics applications, such as digitized passport photos, fingerprints and medical information. The system also allows reloading from the Internet -- providing a variety of security, industrial and government applications. The Cubic Transportation Systems group designs and manufactures automatic fare collection systems for public mass transit, including rail and buses throughout the world. The Cubic Defense Applications group provides instrumented air and ground combat training systems, battle command training simulations, and simulation support for U.S. and allied military forces. The Group also produces high technology avionics, data links and communications products for government and commercial customers and provides a wide range of technical and logistics services.
