Golden, Colorado – XceedID Corporation, a leading global provider of contactless smart cards and readers, and Sino Security, a leading security equipment distributor in China, announced that XceedID readers had recently been selected by the Bejing Olympic Committee as the security reader for the upcoming Olympic games to be held in Beijing in 2008.
