Description


Objective: The major objective of the Carbine project is to establish a cost effective display technology and to provide the smart card market with thin, flexible, low consumption bistable display modules compliant with this market specifications and which can be easily integrated into actual smart cards. The Carbine project will also impulse, through a detailed business plan, the actions needed to produce at very term the mass production of such display modules.

Work description:
The project can be split into 7 major parts:
- Display module and smart card applications specification (performances and interfaces at system and sub-system levels)
- Development of the LCD display (design and development of technical and technological solutions including the manufacturing of parts needed for the project).
- Development of control, command and interface circuits (design and development of technical solutions, including the subcontract of the manufacturing concerning some parts needed for project)
- Development of the module assembly (design and development of technical solutions allowing to transfer the ASIC on the LCD display and to interconnect the display module with the remaining parts of the smart cart)
- Integration and tests of the display module assembly to confirm its performances and its ability to be integrated by smart card integrators.
- Design, development, integration, demonstration and evaluation of 2 applicative configurations specified by 2 major smart card integrators. One will demonstrate a solution using electrical contacts to allow the refreshment of the data, the other will demonstrate a contact less solution. These 2 integrators will perform the functional and environmental tests and check the integration capability of the display module.
- Built of complete business plan concerning the manufacturing of such a "flexible bistable display module", identifying all the industrial facilities and resources needed, sales actions required, recurring and non recurring associated costs, intellectual property situation and potential manufacturing sites, in order to be able to launch the mass production at the end of the project.

These 7 parts will be related to 8 Work packages (because of the 2 smart card integrators) referenced from WP1 to WP8.

An additional work package (WP0) concerns the overall project management.

Milestones:
Project milestones are defined at points where needed parts, services and technologies are realised or defined, e.g. definition of flexible display technology, availability of ASIC's definition files, realisation of first display module. The results of the project will be an exploitable bistable flexible LCD technology from a European source demonstrated in smart card applications.
