Vehicle marking system

Car theft is the most common  crime in the whole of Europe. The vehicle registration card introduced in Hungary reduced the number of thefts and the sale possibility of stolen cars. But recently, the illegal spare trade has gained ground by dismantling  stolen cars, instead of the misuse of vehicle documents protected on high level. This activity raises the risks identified by the insurance companies, increasing indirectly the charges for all owners by the insurance fee.

The vehicle marking system is a security marking technology, which places specific individual marks on the vehicle using various elements and materials, which can be only partly removed by corrosives or re-polishers.

The vehicle marking system is placed at thirteen different spaces in the vehicle, which are invisible to outside observers, except the RFID chip. The system consists of a unique, uncopyable RFID chip, twelve almost impossible to forge graphic security identifiers as well as a special UV reactive marking material placed under each graphic security identifier, which can be removed only by corrosives or re-polishers. Data can be integrated either to national or international producers’ databases or other databases, using the in-house developed data-related software.

The electronic service booklet equipped with a chip capable of multiple applications would provide the possibility for the authorities to be able to electronically store all vehicles’ data undera central control, from their issue. This chip would serve not only the secure control, but it would allow the expert services a comprehensive documentation of their services compulsory under warranty as well as afterwards, and it would authentically support the sale procedure of the vehicles as well.

Components of the marking system

RFID INDENTIFIER:

passive or active, unique electronic identification chip encoded or otherwise protected, suitable for storing all important data of the vehicle.

LABEL:

graphic security identifier, it is basically a sticker equipped either with twelve individual chips marked with serial number, barcode, or miniature RFID, or with visual marks and security markings on demand, which is placed uniquely, in exactly specified spaces and ways, on certain elements of the vehicle.

MARKING

special marking material, it can be used universally, on vehicles as well. It is a UV-reagent chemical suitable for markings; the material can be applied on all fully polished surfaces of the vehicle.
