The technology is passive, meaning that the ID card does not have a continuous signal so students will not be tracked when they are not on the bus.The ID cards only power up to talk to the SMART tag Driver Tablet when the student is on the bus. Also, only the student’s name and associated bar code will be printed on the ID badge.
