DRIVER'S LECENSE DETECTOR
First Claim
1. A system for detecting a license comprising:
- a. a tag device coupled to the license; and
b. a detector for transmitting a first signal to the tag device to request and receive information contained within the tag device, wherein the tag device receives the first signal from the detector and sends a second signal to the detector, and further wherein the information contained within the tag device sent within the second signal indicates the presence of the license at the location of the tag device.

Abstract
A license detector system enables a person such as a police officer to monitor vehicles on the road to ensure drivers have valid licenses. Within each valid license is an RFID tag which contains specific information and each RFID tag is able to send that information to a detector when requested. To use the system, the police officer aims the detector at a vehicle, initiates the signal to be received by the RFID tag within the license and waits to receive a signal back from the RFID tag. If a signal is received, then a valid license has been detected within the vehicle. However, if no signal or an invalid signal is received by the detector, then no one, specifically the driver of the car, has a valid license. Upon discovering such information, the police officer should be justified in stopping the vehicle and taking the necessary police action.

17. A system for detecting a driver'"'"'s license within a moving vehicle comprising:
-
a. a passive Radio Frequency IDentification tag device coupled to the driver'"'"'s license; and b. a detector for transmitting a first signal to the tag device to request and receive information contained within the tag device, wherein the tag device receives the first signal from the detector and sends a second signal of the information contained within the tag device to the detector, further wherein the detector further comprises; i. a processor for processing the information; ii. a first transmitter for transmitting the first signal; iii. a sensor for sensing the second signal; iv. a verifying component for authenticating the second signal by determining if the second signal has authentication data; and v. an indicator for indicating whether the license is detected. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
