Card for facilitating user interaction
First Claim
1. ) A card for identifying a user to a computer system using a sensing device, the card having an interface surface having disposed thereon or therein coded data, the coded data including a plurality of coded data portions, each coded data portion being indicative of an identity of the user, the sensing device being adapted to:
- (a) sense at least one coded data portion;
(b) generate, using the at least one sensed coded data portion, indicating data indicative of the identity of the user; and
, (c) transfer the indicating data to the computer system, the computer system being responsive to determine, using the indicating data, the identity of the user.

Abstract
A card for identifying a user to a computer system using a sensing device, the card having an interface surface having disposed thereon or therein coded data, the coded data including a plurality of coded data portions, each coded data portion being indicative of an identity of the user, the sensing device being adapted to:
(a) sense at least one coded data portion;
(b) generate, using the at least one sensed coded data portion, indicating data indicative of the identity of the user; and,
(c) transfer the indicating data to the computer system, the computer system being responsive to determine, using the indicating data, the identity of the user.

12. ) A method of using a card for facilitating interaction between a user and a computer system, the card having an interface surface having disposed thereon or therein coded data, the coded data including a plurality of coded data portions, each coded data portion being indicative of an identity of the user, wherein the method includes in a sensing device:
-
(a) sensing at least one coded data portion when the sensing device is placed in an operative position relative to the interface surface;
(b) generating, using the at least one sensed coded data portion, indicating data indicative of the identity of the user; and
,(c) transferring the indicating data to the computer system, the computer system being responsive to the indicating data to perform an action. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23)

24. ) A method of creating a card for facilitating interaction between a user and a computer system, the method including, in a computer system:
-
(a) receiving information indicative of an identity of the user;
(b) generating at least one coded data portion indicative of the identity of the user; and
,(c) disposing coded data on an interface surface of the card, the coded data including a plurality of the coded data portions disposed to thereby allow the identity of the user to be determined by sensing any one of the data portions with a sensing device. - View Dependent Claims (25, 26, 27, 28)
