Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current wireless identification technologies face limitations such as data duplication, security vulnerabilities, reliance on specific applications, and privacy issues, making them unsuitable for secure and multi-application environments.
Innovation Solution
A method where a wireless identification device transmits an encrypted instruction set to a wireless reader, allowing it to dynamically process and transfer data to a specified address, with features like unique encryption keys and programmable memory, enabling configurability, security, and privacy settings.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If prior art wireless identification devices use standard encryption methods, then data transmission is achieved, but security is compromised due to lack of unique encryption per device
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the encryption parameter from standard fixed methods to unique variable encryption keys stored in the wireless identification device's memory. Each device has its own encryption key that is read and applied during data transmission, making the encryption parameter device-specific rather than universal.
2Ease of operation
If readers are pre-configured with application-specific settings, then application functionality is achieved, but adaptability to other applications is lost
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transforms the reader from a static pre-configured system to a dynamic system that receives configuration instructions from the wireless identification device itself. The reader's behavior changes based on the instructions received, allowing it to adapt to different applications without pre-configuration.
Solution Approach 2:
The wireless identification device provides its own configuration instructions to the reader, eliminating the need for external pre-configuration. The device serves itself by containing the necessary programming to direct how its data should be processed and where it should be transmitted.
3Adaptability or versatility
If data is transmitted to multiple applications, then comprehensive monitoring is achieved, but data duplication occurs across databases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an intermediary instruction set that acts as a mediator between the wireless identification device and the reader. This instruction set contains the specific routing information that directs data to the correct application or database destination, preventing duplication by ensuring data goes to the intended location only.
4Reliability
If wireless identification devices are made secure with unique encryption, then security is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses copying by storing the unique encryption key and instructional data in the wireless identification device's memory as a copy of the necessary programming. This allows the device to contain all necessary security and operational information locally without requiring complex external systems.

AI summary
A method and apparatus for selecting a wireless reader action comprising the steps of a wireless communication identification device which is a wireless identification device transmitting output data; the wireless reader thereafter receives the output data, wherein the output data comprises an instruction set how to process the output data; and the wireless reader processing the output data and performing a suitable action in compliance with said output data instructions. The wireless identification device comprises at least one of a unique data address and a unique variable encryption key, which is transmitted as part of the instruction set. Authentication of data and resulting permission to decrypt the wireless identification device output data is transmitted to at least one of an authentication server or user API, which processes the data, and generates an authentication code where the wireless identification device output data corresponds with authentication criteria.
