First Claim
Patent Images
1. A vehicle, comprising:
- two or more soft touch radio frequency (RF) antennas, placed outside the vehicle, to communicate sensitive information associated with a user of the vehicle, wherein the soft touch RF antenna makes physical contact, outside the vehicle, with a receiver;
two or more RF transceivers, each RF transceiver associated with one of the two or more soft touch RF antennas, the two or more RF transceivers to communicate sensitive information associated with a user of the vehicle;
a processor in communication with the two or more RF transceivers, the processor to;
receive an input to deploy one of the two or more RF antennas;
select a first RF transceiver associated with the deployed RF antenna to send the sensitive information; and
send the sensitive information to the first RF transceiver.

Abstract
A vehicle includes two or more soft touch radio frequency (RF) antennas and two or more RF transceivers to communicate sensitive information associated with a user of the vehicle. A processor in communication with the two or more RF transceivers selects a first RF transceiver associated with the deployed RF antenna to send the sensitive information and sends the sensitive information to the first RF transceiver.

11. A method for communicating information with a vehicle, comprising:
-
receiving an input to deploy one of two or more soft touch radio frequency (RF) antennas, placed outside the vehicle, to communicate sensitive information associated with a user of the vehicle, wherein the soft touch RF antenna makes physical contact, outside the vehicle, with a receiver; selecting a first RF transceiver associated with the deployed RF antenna to send the sensitive information; sending the sensitive information through the first RF transceiver; and transmitting the sensitive information, from the first RF transceiver and through a soft touch RF antenna, to the receiver. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)
