Abstract: The instant invention is directed to a tuned inductive coil that is designed to work within the field of a separate NFC (Near Field Communication) tag for the purpose of harvesting ambient energy that is transmitted during the bi-directional signal process in order to effect unique functionality which requires higher energy consumption and which would not otherwise be possible or as effective absent such harvest of energy such as, but not limited to operation of a light, a sound or a tactile transducer or similar circuitry, separate of the function of the nearby NFC tag.

Abstract: A combination mobile payment-information delivery system. The system can include a point of sale (POS) device having a mobile payment chip and antenna. The POS device can also have a first near field communication (NFC) device. The POS device with the mobile payment chip and antenna is operable as a mobile payment portal. In addition, the POS device with the first near field communication (NFC) device is operable as a consumer/end-user targeted information (CTI) portal. In this manner, the use of NFC technology for delivering in real-time consumer/end-user targeted information (CTI) is combined with POS devices that can execute mobile payment transactions.

Abstract: A digital electronic multimedia synchronizing and routing system. The system has a dynamic digital presentation system (DPS), a content controller and a plurality of digital primary presentation (DPP) contents. Also, the DPS and the content controller display each of the plurality of DPP contents on the DPS per a pre-defined time schedule. The system also includes an interactive content platform with a plurality of customizable digital secondary interactive (CDSI) contents or presentations. The interactive content platform is in synchronization with the pre-defined time schedule for the display of each of the plurality of DPP contents, and per a contactless data-exchange protocol engagement with a personal electronic device (PED), the interactive content platform provides synchronized CDSI content to the PED.

Abstract: A system, computer-implemented method and removable computer-readable medium with software for creating and displaying automatically and dynamically, in real time, from image and audio files stored on the removable computer-readable medium, a transient themed digital multimedia slide show presentation on a computer or other playback device. The only user preparation required is in the selection and transfer of the image and audio files to be used for the slide show presentation to the removable computer-readable medium. Upon insertion of the removable computer-readable medium into the removable media drive of a computer or other playback device, the software launches automatically and begins creating and displaying the slide show presentation with no further effort on the part of a user.
