Abstract
A dual memory Secure Digital (SD) card is provided which allows for remote data updates without disruption to a currently executing program, as well as a system and method that utilize the dual memory SD card. The dual memory SD card may include a primary memory, an independent secondary memory, and a microcontroller or Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) that can load either memory upon boot up of a host computer. The dual memory SD card may also include a wireless interface, such as Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, in addition to a standard SD pin interface. An automated data synchronization system is provided which allows a new version of data to be uploaded onto the secondary memory of the dual memory SD card while an existing data version is running on that same dual memory SD card and swapped into operation upon the next reboot of a host device.
