First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for signaling information by a radio frequency identification (RFID) circuit having a unique number generation portion that is activated when the RFID circuit is read by control equipment, said method comprising the steps of:
- a) exposing on a material data bits of the number generation portion of the RFID circuit in a manner that the data bits will represent binary ones or zeros;
b) altering on a material the data bits of the number generation portion of the RFID circuit in a manner that the data bits will represent binary ones or zeros;
wherein the RFID circuit has a unique number generation portion that when combined with the number generation portion of the RFID circuit indicates to the control equipment which remote control device is being touched;
c) touching contacts on the material so that the RFID circuit will perform some function; and
d) coupling the RFID circuit to equipment to remotely control the equipment.

Abstract
A remote control device that is combined with a modified RFID circuit that allows an individual to enter information into different types of equipment. When an individual touches graphite contacts on the modified RFID circuit with his/her finger, the circuit will activate a RFID reader causing an action on another device.
