PIN privacy shield
To prevent shoulder surfing when entering a PIN code, a privacy shield has
smartly been integrated in the design. Fold it out when performing transactions;
fold it in when not in use. Easy as that!
This patented concept helps to keep the shape of XENTISSIMO very flat, making it
easy to carry it in the hand, on a belt, in a suitcase etcetera. Besides that, the
position of the convertible shield also determines whether XENTISSIMO is
operational: only when it is in the upright position, both the frontal chip-card
interface and the lateral magnetic-stripe reader are accessible.
The pivoting mechanism, based on the combined use of specially shaped notches
and springs, makes sure that the shield remains properly in place in either
position.
The PIN privacy shield complies with the latest international security regulations
like PCI PED.
