Magnetic Swipe Reading Technology
Your typical bank or credit card is a magnetic swipe card.

There is an ISO standard which determines the size of the card and the position of the black band or magnetic strip.

The principle of an access control system which uses magnetic swipe technology is that a unique number is encoded onto the user card. The card reader reads the number which the access control unit interprets and in conjunction with a database determines if the user is valid and unlocks the relevant door.
