	<p>SLIGOS Technicomer CP8 Demo card. Probably an access demo for the special Lausanne rail system.</p>
<p>The term "Cinétique System Metrocine" refers most likely to the engineering infrastructure and automated operations behind the Lausanne Metro, particularly its famous rubber-tyred M2 line, which features the steepest slope of any fully automated metro line in the world, tackling a 12% maximum gradient (and an 11.5% platform slope at the Lausanne-Gare CFF station)</p>

	<p>G-Tech Lottery card Demo for the G-Tech Users Conference at Pebble Beach California 1988 or Gaming functions concept. Gemplus Smartcard 1988. Attendee card Michel Mercier (Horizontal personalisation only), Executive Representative of Telemediacartes.</p>
<p>By 1988-89, G-Tech Corporation in partnership with Telemediacartes initiated a number of projects for Smartcard systems in USA, involving Lottery cards, Gaming- Casino, Providence, Rhode Island, Chicago, Atlantic City, and Las Vegas. These mostly took place around 1987-90</p>
<p>In 1988, GTECH Corporation—then the world's dominant provider of online lottery systems and computer networks—hosted its prestigious annual Users Conference at Pebble Beach, California.<br />
While specific workshop agendas or attendee rolls from this 1988 event are confined to archived corporate records, the conference took place during a defining era for the company:<br />
<strong>• Market Dominance:</strong> By 1988, GTECH supplied centralized technology and terminals for the vast majority of state-run lotteries across the United States and international markets.<br />
<strong>• The "Users" Network: </strong>The conference gathered GTECH's primary "users"—who were actually high-ranking state lottery directors, government officials, and international gaming administrators—to preview new terminal hardware, encryption technology, and transactional software.</p>

	<p>TMC Access card Personally used by Gerard Pons (manager of Telemediacartes) used at Sophia Antipolis (SA) site. Only 1 of 3 cards specially printed for Mr. Pons. Printed when the Amadeus project was actively being developed at S.A.</p>
<p>The AMADEUS Project, had the goal of upgrading the technology of European Airport and flight management. While the AMADEUS corporate headquarters were placed in Madrid, Spain, the <strong class="rQesXe MPyX" data-sfc-cp="" data-sfc-root="c" data-complete="true">core product development and engineering hub</strong> was built in <strong class="rQesXe MPyX" data-sfc-cp="" data-sfc-root="c" data-complete="true">Sophia Antipolis, France</strong></p>
<p>Sophia Antipolis is a massive technology park in the south east of France. It was designed in 1969 by French Senator Pierre Laffitte. Currently home to approximately 2500 companies. In the 1980's a number of American companies became residents during a major expansion phase. This led to a number of Telemdiacartes programs tailor-made for US company systems<br />
