Nhổn – Hanoi Station Metro Line: Smart Technology Hidden Behind the “Tiny and Charming” Coin Tickets
The Nhổn – Hanoi Station metro line is one of Hanoi’s largest and most modern public transportation projects, marking a significant step forward in transforming the urban landscape and serving as a “key” to reducing traffic congestion in the city.
A standout feature of this metro line is the use of coin token tickets—an intelligent solution hidden behind a compact and simple design. The token features the Khuê Văn Các symbol, an iconic representation of the capital, Hanoi.
Contactless Chip Technology – The Foundation for a Seamless Experience
The coin token is embedded with advanced contactless chip technology, compliant with international standards and compatible with the Automatic Fare Collection (AFC) system. This allows passengers to avoid purchasing paper tickets for every trip, saving time and effort. The check-in and check-out processes are quick, accurate, and transparent, enhancing the operational efficiency of the system.
Outstanding Advantages of the Coin Token
- Compact and Durable Design: The token resembles a coin, with its antenna and chip securely soldered, ensuring high durability and resistance to impacts and environmental conditions. The token can withstand a drop from 2 meters onto a concrete surface without damage.
- Contactless Chip Technology: The chip inside the token communicates with the scanning systems at entry and exit gates, allowing for quick and secure movement.
- Exceptional Security: Modern encryption technology prevents counterfeiting and duplication, ensuring high security for the system.
- Compliance with ISO 14443 Type A: This standard is widely used in contactless payment systems.
- Unlimited Readings: The token can be used repeatedly without limitations.
- Long-Term Data Storage: The token can store data for up to 10 years, aiding in effective monitoring and management of travel history.
Importance of the Metro Line
With the goal of contributing to the economic and social development of the capital, the Nhổn – Hanoi Station metro line aims to connect different areas, reduce traffic congestion, improve the environment, and promote the use of public transportation. The project has received strong positive feedback from the public, with over 400,000 passengers in the first 7 days of operation.
MK Smart is proud to have played a crucial role in the project by providing smart contactless cards and chips for the tokens used on the line. MK Smart is committed to supporting the government and agencies in building a digital society, smart city, and sustainable payment systems.
