Hello, need some help here guys.

I am required to capture data from MyKads and store them. Are there any MyKad readers being sold? Do I need some kind of development kit in order to capture data from the reader to the PC? Has anyone done this before?

Thanks for any help.

Never built it before, but heard it from MyKad convention few years ago:
Card Readers' company name = tricubes
Brand is something like sekure (or so... forgot already)

7-11 got sell those mykad readers..

n your astro decoder can check also..

i tink u switch to channel 800
let me look around

Yes there's mycard reader for sale..
If not mistaken i saw ppl post at LYN b4....or maybe its at http://www.lelong.com.my

u just need reader or also the SDK ? the reader is cheap, but the SDK is expensive. There are few types of SDK as I know, the one which reads JPN data only or JPJ data also, cost like RM1K and RM1.5K.

I m not selling but used them b4 and still using now. The SDK is licensed to my company and it is private property, u need to purchase yourself. If not forgotten I did start a post b4 in CodeMaster long time ago about MyKad, try search and see if u can still found it.

That MyKad thread in Codemasters long ago is lost.
And now I've figured out what the commands are to read the surface information. When I've time, I might write an article about it.

Hmm i actually has a modem card reader....
A 28.8kbps modem which has card reader capabilities...

some help to the thread starter would be where could he buy the SDK and/or some helpfull links. dont just say u have this n that. show some direction people!.

i just tried googling and found this link, they are a malaysian company

hope it helps

Lolz tats my ex company
Anyway....im not a teacher thats y i dont spoonfeed

Hi, I did involve in a project which needs to retrive from Mykad and insert into database. You can check the IRIS reader of IRIS Smartcard Reader
The SCR21U. Currenttly, Maxis Information Kiosk and Bodyshop are using Mykad reader for their own purpose, you can go and take a look.

URL = Link to the product page

is there any software to read mykad data?cause i have smart card reader for my pc but doesn;t have the softtware for it.

Do you think ppl design the MyKad reader for fun ?
Yes there are, but I bet your reader cant be supported.

what makes u think that ? care to justify ?

Cause the MyKad SDK has to work with the reader that it comes with. Its something like hardware come with driver, just little different, the SDK has been hardcoded to look for that particular type of reader. I think its for security purpose or avoid their SDK being widely distributed(they make no money).

But it is possible for some1 to re-write the SDK implementation to work on other hardware devices (not the full sdk but just parts of it for reading data for example) correct ?

cos i know my dell keyboard (it comes with a smartcard reader) could detect the kind of chip the mykad uses.

a search on sf.net shows that there are such things around but just not for mykad's

http://sourceforge.net/search/?type_of_sea...words=smartcard

can we use the sdk and the writer to modify the data in mykad?

THe SDK Is A MUST cause the SDK consist the decrypt Key which decrypt the data on myKad, Actually almost all the card reader CAN useto write the data to it, just the encrypt scheme not implementted on the SDK.

So U may purchase the write SDK when u got enought Rights do that.

Buy from IRIS Corp.

Ok. I don't have time to complete my original MyKad reader program. Having difficulties with the dreaded user interface hell. So tonight I work on a quick-and-dirty console application in C. You need to use a hex editor to look at the output dump file. But, the basic information like name, IC no., are printed in the console too.

Who has the copyright and license of MyKAD SDK?

If M'sian government is holder the above, then should this SDK be avaliabe to public to s/w developers for a minium fee at least? Just SDK that allow to capture data stored on the chip only.
