ISELIN, N.J., Oct. 14, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- On Track Innovations Ltd, (OTI) (Nasdaq:OTIV - News), today announced that its subsidiary, PARX Ltd., is expanding its parking solution to France, with the addition of Reims, the 12th largest city in France with more than 185,000 residents, as the first municipality to introduce EasyPark(TM) in the country. PARX France will introduce the product under the brand name Piaf 2.

PARX France will manage the new EasyPark(TM) project. EasyPark(TM) is OTI's patented in-vehicle electronic parking meter. The EasyPark(TM) business model is one in which revenues are generated from product sales, transaction fees and customer support. Last year OTI acquired ID Parking, an electronic parking solution provider in approximately 40 municipalities in France. The acquisition enables OTI to leverage the platform to access the French electronic parking payment market and offer multiple solutions for parking payment.



"We are looking forward to the implementation of EasyPark(TM) in the first municipality in France. Our strategy of expanding EasyPark(TM) globally through local channels has been successful in Italy and Bermuda and we continue to work on additional locations," said Oded Bashan, OTI's Chairman and CEO. "The fact that EasyPark(TM) is an easy-to-use, cost effective solution that requires minimum infrastructure investment makes it an attractive parking payment tool for municipalities for on-street parking and parking lots worldwide."



Mr. Bashan continued: "The product's business model that enables OTI to generate revenues from transaction fees and maintenance and support on top of the product sale coincides with OTI's strategy to increase its ongoing recurring revenues."



Using Piaf 2 the driver pays only for the actual parked time. To activate Piaf 2 the driver turns on the contactless unit and places it in the car window. Upon returning, the driver turns the device off. This creates a uniquely convenient user experience by eliminating the need for cash, change, and saving the time looking for parking meters. Piaf 2 can be used for both on-street parking payments and for parking lots. Piaf 2 provides detailed reports to the municipality in order to better manage and monitor parking patterns across town. The parking system is able to support multiple rates, cities, tariffs in a modular, scalable and easy to implement way.

Frankfurter Flughafen
Polizei testet automatisierte Grenzkontrolle

Schneller über die Grenze: Mit dem Pilotprojekt "EasyPass" prüft die Bundespolizei eine Passkontrolle per Scanner und Kamera. Auf dem Frankfurter Flughafen können Einreisende mit ePass eine sogenannte Grenzkontrollspur durchlaufen.

Frankfurt/Main - In den kommenden Monaten können Reisende am Frankfurter Flughafen bei der Grenzkontrolle ein neues Verfahren testen und möglicherweise schneller durch die Überprüfung kommen. Innenstaatssekretär August Hanning gab am Freitag auf dem größten deutschen Airport den Startschuss für das Pilotprojekt "EasyPass".

Dabei wird die Kontrolle nach Angaben der Bundespolizei in Teilen automatisiert und auf Basis des elektronischen Reisepasses (ePass) und des darin digital gespeicherten Bildes vorgenommen.

Insgesamt vier Kontrollpunkte wurden im Ankunftsbereich des Terminals 1, Flugsteig C unmittelbar vor den Kontrollschaltern aufgebaut. Auf freiwilliger Basis können Reisende ihren elektronischen Reisepass künftig auf einen bereitstehenden Scanner legen, der die Echtheitsmerkmale des ePasses prüft und anhand der Daten wie Passnummer, Name, Geburtsdatum oder Länderkennzeichen die gesetzlich vorgesehenen Fahndungsabfragen einleitet.

Wird der ePass als gültig erkannt, öffnet sich laut Bundespolizei die sogenannte Grenzkontrollspur und eine Kamera erfasst das Gesicht des Reisenden zum Vergleich mit dem zuvor aus dem ePass ausgelesenen digital gespeicherten Lichtbild. Nach erfolgreicher Überprüfung öffne sich dann die Ausgangstür und alle zuvor erzeugten Daten würden gelöscht. Beamte im dahinter liegenden Grenzkontrollschalter beaufsichtigen den Prozess und entscheiden anhand der Überprüfungsergebnisse, ob weitere Maßnahmen erforderlich sind.

Voraussetzung für die Nutzung des Systems ist ein gültiger, elektronischer Reisepass der Europäischen Union, der Staaten des Europäischen Wirtschaftsraumes oder der Schweiz. Außerdem muss der Nutzer mindestens 18 Jahre alt sein. Eine vorherige Registrierung zur Nutzung ist demnach nicht erforderlich. Reisende können selbst entscheiden, ob sie an dem Praxistext teilnehmen wollen.

Das Pilotprojekt läuft zunächst sechs Monate lang in Frankfurt. Die Bundespolizei erwartet davon eine Entlastung der konventionellen Grenzübertrittskontrollen zugunsten kürzerer Wartezeiten für Reisende. Staatssekretär Hanning erklärte laut Mitteilung: "Das Verfahren scheint auch vor dem Hintergrund der zunehmenden Verbreitung elektronischer Reisepässe als besonders zukunftsträchtig und nützlich für die Reisenden."

Ich nehme nicht an, dass OTI bei diesem Projekt dabei ist. Sonst hätten wir eine Meldung gehabt.

Ich finde die Meldung zu diesem Projekt aber gut, weshalb ich sie hier rein gestellt habe. Dass das die Zukunft der Abfertigung ist, steht für mich ohne Zweifel. Wäre halt schön, wenn OTI ab und zu dabei wäre.

       * Initial Order for 4,000 Saturn 6500 Readers Received
     * Commitment to Procure Further Larger Order Quantities in
                      Subsequent Project Phases


ISELIN, N.J., Oct. 20, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- On Track Innovations Ltd, (OTI) (Nasdaq:OTIV - News) a global leader in contactless microprocessor-based smart card solutions for homeland security, payments, petroleum payments and other applications, today announced DigiCore's decision to integrate OTI's Saturn 6500 contactless readers with its Fare Validators. The JSE-listed DigiCore Holdings specializes in the research, design, development, manufacturing, sales and support of technologically advanced GPS fleet management, vehicle tracking and EMV based fare management solutions. Digicore's decision to standardize on OTI's Saturn 6500 is strategically important in the context of developments in the local payment industry in South Africa.


OTI has received the first order to supply 4,000 smart card readers, together with a commitment to procure further larger order quantities in subsequent project phases.


In South Africa public transport by minibus taxi accounts for 65% of the transport total, 20% by bus and 15% by rail.

DigiCore's new Fare system, built on its highly successful C-track system, uses OTI's contactless reader, allowing passengers to receive a better, more convenient service and reduces cash handling by the driver. Reloadable, EMV compliant pre-paid cards will be issued to commuters to enable contactless transactions in accordance with the requirements of the contactless payment schemes of the Card Associations and the South African National Department of Transport (NDOT).

Deon du Rand, the Managing Director Technology for DigiCore, commented: "After evaluating various options, we selected OTI's Saturn 6500 contactless readers for our Tap-i-Fare fare management product range. This reader and the support from OTI allowed us to do the integration and demonstrate an end to end solution in record time."

Oded Bashan, Chairman & CEO, OTI, stated, "We are happy to see growth and expansion in the contactless payments market. The world trend for convenience in payment transactions, which reflects in the transition to contactless solutions, is supported by the major financial institutions. The transit payment market that relies today almost exclusively on cash can now enjoy the convenience and speed contactless payments can offer."

Hallo Freunde,

es gibt also wieder Hoffnung im Laden: Neben den vermehrten Meldungen zu neuen Projekten und Projektanläufen der letzten Zeit ist diese zu China für mich die Wichtigste in diesem Jahr. Folgende zwei Kernätze aus dieser News:

# In this tender, OTI is responsible for supplying the contactless readers and in addition will receive part of the profits from the overall program deliverables.

D.h. wir liefern nicht nur die Karten, sondern auch die  umsatzträchtigen Lesegeräte.

# Each one of these initiatives is large, complex, sophisticated and involves the integration of multiple sub systems, and thus takes long time. In recent years OTI has been working with strong local partners in order to be able to establish local products which support the Chinese opportunity.

Will heißen: Habt geduld ("... and thus takes long time.")


Herzliche Grüße an alle, die dieses Martyrium aushalten.
