Abstract

The present invention provides an engine, system and method for providing an NFC tag capable of receiving a charge and performing as an active tag without interaction.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
I claim: 
     
         1 . An NFC tag, comprising:
 a capacitor layer comprising at least one capacitor communicatively coupled to at least one inducer; wherein a gate separates the at least one capacitor from the at least inducer and wherein the at least one capacitor is capable of receiving a charge through the at least inducer;   wherein the capacitor layer is about 1 mm to about 2 mm thick.   
     
     
         2 . The NFC tag of  claim 1 , wherein the gate is closed. 
     
     
         3 . The NFC tag of  claim 1 , wherein the inducer receives an electric charge from at least one external source. 
     
     
         4 . The NFC tag of  claim 1 , wherein transceiver receives a charge from the inducer. 
     
     
         5 . The NEC tag of  claim 1 , wherein the gate is operable via Hall effect. 
     
     
         6 . The NEC tag of  claim 1 , further comprising at least one LED. 
     
     
         7 . The NEC tag of  claim 1 , further comprising at least one LED indicative of the charge of the capacitor.
