Definitions
- the present invention relates to apparatus and methods for accessing information documents and more particularly to apparatus and methods for accessing radio frequency identification documents.
- Radio frequency identification (RFID) chips have been utilized in identification and other documents. Unfortunately, information contained on such documents can sometimes be accessed by unauthorized parties by use of an RFID reader. What is needed is a means and method for restricting access to RFID chips to authorized requestors.
- FIG. 1 is a plan view of an apparatus with optical security module coupled to decoder and integrated circuit of the present invention.
- Apparatus 15 of the invention can be any suitable apparatus containing information in an integrated circuit provided with the apparatus.
- apparatus 15 can be an information document, an identification card or a passport.
- apparatus 15 includes an integrated circuit 1 coupled to an aerial or antenna 6, a light or optical sensor 2 coupled to the integrated circuit 1, a decoder 4 coupled to the integrated circuit 1 and graphic code 5 contained in a field, all mounted or provided on a substrate 16 such as a planar substrate that is substantially rigid.
- the graphic code 5 can be out any suitable type, for example machine readable graphic code such as a bar code or a machine readable zone.
- the aerial or antenna 6 can be in the form of an RFID tag or transponder of any suitable type, for example a loop antenna shown as having a plurality of concentric loops and as shown having three concentric loops.
- the antenna 6 is coupled to the integrated circuit 1 by any suitable means such as a first connector wire 6a and a second connector wire 6b.
- Integrated circuit 1 can include a memory 17 and a switch 18 and in one embodiment can be an RFID chip of any suitable type. Any suitable information can be included within memory 17, such as personal information, biometric information, bank information and/or medical information. Access to information contained in memory 17 of the RFID chip 1 is controlled by the decoder 4. More specifically, the decoder 4 serves to move switch 18 to an on or off position for respectively permitting or denying access to information within memory 17.
- the substrate 16 can have a size and rigidity approximating that of a credit card and can be made from a substantially plastic material.
- Apparatus 15 is for use with a wireless reader 7, which in one embodiment is an RFID reader 7, and a light source 10 of any suitable type such as a light emitting diode or a laser diode. Additionally provided is a code reader 8 for reading the graphic code 5 on the substrate 16 and a light controller 9 for adjusting the beam of light emitted by the light source 10 as a function of the information contained in the graphic code 5 and read by the code reader 8.
- Wireless reader 7, code reader 8, light controller 9 and light source 10 can be separate devices or grouped in any suitable manner such as in a remote device 21.
- the apparatus 15 is carried by a user within range of RFID reader 7.
- RFID chip 1 can be wirelessly powered by an electromagnetic signal supplied by RFID reader 7 and through antenna 6 to the chip 1.
- RFID chip 1 Upon initial reception of a signal from RFID reader 7, access to the information contained within memory 17 of RFID chip 1 is denied because switch 18 is in an off position.
- RFID chip 1 relays a request to RFID reader 7 for additional information, and reader 7 then directs the code reader 8 to read out the information located in the field of the graphic code 5 regarding the form, amplitude, frequency and other information of the light beam that must be received by the light sensor 2 to unlock RFID chip 1.
- Such information read or obtained from graphic code 5 is transferred to the light controller 9, which generates the necessary input signal to the light source 10 to enable the light source to encode or emit a light beam of the appropriate form, amplitude and frequency, and containing any such additional information, to cause the light sensor 2, upon receiving such light beam, to send an appropriate signal to the decoder 4 so as to cause the decoder 4 to move switch 18 to an open or on position.
- the encoded light beam can include coded pulses of light.
- the decoder 4 decodes and compares the signal or data received from the light sensor 2 with data in the internal memory 17 and upon confirmation that the received signal from the light sensor is sufficient to permit access to the RFID chip 1, sends an authorization signal to the chip 1 to grant the RFID reader 7 access to internal memory 17 of the chip 1.
- the requested information within the memory 17 is then wirelessly transmitting, by antenna 6 or an antenna included within RFID chip 1, to the RFID reader 7.
- apparatus 15 can be utilized with biometric readers (not shown) or any other additional security device.
- a biometric reader such as a fingerprint reader can be used with graphic code reader 8 for providing the necessary information to light controller 9 to enable the light source to generate an appropriate light beam for impinging on light sensor 2 so as to grant access to RFID chip 1.
- the reader after ascertaining a user by checking a fingerprint provided by the user against fingerprint information stored in or available to the fingerprint reader, the reader communicates the user's identity to the code reader 8. The code reader 8 then confirms the correctness of the user against information available in the graphics code 5 before communicating with controller 9 to enable the light source 10.

Abstract
L'invention concerne un appareil destiné à être utilisé avec une source lumineuse et un lecteur sans fil comprenant un substrat ayant une surface et un circuit intégré porté par le substrat et conçu pour la communication sans fil avec le lecteur sans fil. Un décodeur est porté par le substrat et couplé électriquement au circuit intégré. Un capteur lumineux est porté par le substrat et conçu pour détecter la lumière émise par la source lumineuse. Le capteur lumineux est couplé électriquement au décodeur. Un code graphique lisible par une machine est disposé sur la surface et contient des informations d'activation destinées à être utilisées par la source lumineuse pour amener le décodeur à activer le circuit intégré lorsqu'une lumière spécifiée est émise par la source lumineuse et détectée par le capteur lumineux. Lors de l'activation, le circuit intégré communique sans fil avec le lecteur sans fil. L'invention concerne également un procédé.
