Combination process interaction

Abstract

A method for applying the application of reading multiple NFC tags. By examining the context of the reading, the identification of the NFC tags, and a direction, pattern and/or sequence of reading, a corresponding action is determined and requested.

What is claimed as new and desired to be protected by Letters Patent of the United States is: 
     
       1. A method of using multiple NFC tags to cause an action to be performed: reading a first data by a mobile communication device from a first NFC tag; reading a second data by said mobile communication device from a second NFC tag; interpreting by said mobile communication device the first and second data from the first and second NFC tags respectively to at least respectively identify the NFC tags; and causing by said mobile communication device an action to be performed based on identification of the NFC tag, wherein said step of causing by said mobile communication device an action to be performed based on identification of the NFC tags further comprises:
 causing by said mobile communication device an action to be performed based on a sequence and identification of the NFC tags. 
 
     
     
       2. The method of  claim 1 , further comprising the step of:
 interpreting by said mobile communication device the first data to identify an appropriate program related to the first data that should be running on the mobile communication device. 
 
     
     
       3. The method of  claim 2 , further comprising the step of:
 determining whether the appropriate program resides on the mobile communication device, and if the program does not reside on the mobile communication device, then 
 determining where to download the appropriate program from; and causing the appropriate program to be downloaded. 
 
     
     
       4. A method of identifying action to be performed derived from a motioning of a Mobile NFC Device in a pattern over a surface containing a plurality of placed NFC tags, comprising the steps of:
 dynamically polling by the Mobile NFC Device a reading of the NFC Tags; 
 interpreting by the Mobile NFC Device of a sequence of the NFC Tags being read for an action or variation of an action; and 
 causing by said Mobile NFC Device said action or variation of actions, based on the users dynamic pattern of motion of the Mobile NFC Device over the strategically placed NFC Tags on the surface where the Mobile NFC Device is Motioning. 
 
     
     
       5. A method of reading multiple NFC Tags by an Mobile NFC Device, comprising:
 reading at least two NFC tags from a field of a plurality of NFC tags; and 
 interpreting the reading of said at least two NFC tags, where each unique sequence can create a multiple number of possible actions, where said multiple number of possible actions is greater than the number of NFC tags in the plurality of NFC tags. 
 
     
     
       6. A method of reading an NFC Tag multiple times by a Mobile NFC Device, comprising the steps of:
 reading by a Mobile NFC Device an NFC tag in a pattern, where the NFC tag is read in a pattern defined to the user on their Mobile NFC Device via visual, auditory, or haptic feedback; and 
 where the pattern can cause a initiation of a specific action or variation of an action. 
 
     
     
       7. The method of  claim 6 , wherein said pattern is a timed pattern or rhythmic pattern.
