Introduction
The LEGIC Booster is an active dual ID tag enabling simultaneous identification of the inserted LEGIC smart card and
the embedded vehicle ID resulting in rapid driver and vehicle monitoring.
A LEGIC smart card can be placed in the device (representing driver ID). Additionally a separate ID is programmed in
the LEGIC Booster (representing vehicle ID). Once configured, the LEGIC Booster allows a driver ID badge together with
its embedded vehicle ID to be read from a distance up to 10 meters (33 feet) in combination with NEDAP TRANSIT
readers. This solution substantially enhances the level of security when controlling activities of vehicles that are
regularly used by different drivers. Additionally a fully integrated vehicle and personnel access solution can be
implemented. The LEGIC Booster Ultimate further enhances the level of security with additional communication by
checking the LEGIC Booster Ultimate authenticity.
For more details about the NEDAP TRANSIT reader refer to the TRANSIT installation guide.
The combined vehicle and driver identification is a unique NEDAP patented feature. Optionally the vehicle-ID can be
omitted if more information from the LEGIC card is required.
The LEGIC Booster supports LEGIC Advant and Prime cards.
NEDAP can also supply Booster devices that are able to read NEDAP, EM4200, HID-Prox or MIFARE/DESFIRE cards.
The LEGIC Booster was developed based upon the unique patent of the Nedap dual band technology. This technology
enables reading of the low frequency credit card sized tag by the TRANSIT microwave reader. The microwave
technology in the 2.45GHz band allows identification at a distance up to 10 meters, even at high speeding passage.
The LEGIC Booster Ultimate has an extra 433MHz band for a triple band technology for extra LEGIC Booster Ultimate
authentication.
