A self-boarding pass having a batteryless thin flexible display inlay and a housing encapsulating the batteryless thin flexible display inlay. The batteryless thin flexible display inlay has a bi-state display, display control circuitry, a secure processor and an antenna. The housing has a composite layer having front and back faces and a window aligned with the display in the batteryless thin flexible display inlay, printing on the front face of the composite later and a transparent polyester plastic layer encapsulating the composite layer, the printing and the window.

Batteryless re-usable self-boarding pass

A system for identifying medication in the form of pills, capsules or tablets, and communicating medicine dosage and intake instructions to a user, utilizing Radio Frequency Identification Devices (RFID) and optical recognition technology. The RFID is performed by labeling a medicine container with a tag containing a unique identifier, associating the unique identifier with an audio file comprising instructions related to medicine usage, and delivering the audio file to an electromagnetic wave-enabled device. A wireless device, such as a mobile telephone or PDA, via a service, plays an audio and/or vibrational file associated with the unique identifier when the RFID tag is read by the device. The mobile device has a camera therein and is operable to capture an image of the pill, capsule or tablet and, via execution of optical recognition software, identify the pill, tablet or capsule, and verify the identity thereof.

The present invention provides a wireless internet protocol-based action-oriented system comprising an actuator, which may be worn on or carried by a user, and which may be activated by the user to wirelessly communicate, via an access point on a LAN, a signal to a base station server to execute an action command, such as a stoppage of nearby associated machinery or vehicles. Alternatively, sensors and/or detectors disposed on the actuator may independently transmit data to the base station server, which the base station server may then act upon. The system further includes a computer software program product, which links the actuator, access points, base station server and associated machinery and/or vehicles, and which allows the base station server to communicate with a corresponding machine or vehicle to order an execution of an action thereby. The system may further have a barcode scanner in communication with the base station server, and each actuator may further contain a barcode or unique identification number, such that actuator data may be entered into the base station server with ease and active controls set on the actuator. Thus, the actuator, in conjunction with the system and corresponding computer program product, allows a user to have the ability to immediately initiate a remote action, such as the halting of operation of industrial equipment or vehicles in communication with the system of the present invention operating over a wireless LAN, and allows system managers to easily set controls associated with each actuator.
