Mass Transit Fare Collection System

Micrologic manufactures computerized ticketing or fare collection system  for masstransit busway or train systems. The system uses magnetic cards or contactless smart cards with single-pass or stored value capabilities.

A typical system consists of card-controlled turnstile entry and exit units and ticket dispensing units connected to a station computer server through a Local Area Network (LAN).

Stations are then networked with each other through a fiber-optic Wide Area Network (WAN) with the main server located in the central station.






Transactions from all the stations are captured into the main server's database. This acts as a back-up, and facilitates timely generation of reports.


For maximum efficiency, Micrologic uses contactless smart cards for both single and stored value applications. Transactions of one second per passenger is possible and the high maintenance associated with magnetic stripe cards is avoided. The cards are also very secure and can accommodate other applications such as car park and gas station transactions.
