Abstract
The present invention contemplates a method of activating a wearable device, the method comprising the step of detecting an electromagnetic field generated by a Near Field Communication ('NFC') transmitter within a detection range of an electromagnetic field detection circuit of the wearable device. In response to detecting the electromagnetic signal, the method further contemplates emitting a trigger signal to trigger a flip-flop, wherein triggering the flip-flop causes a switching transistor to switch between at least one of an activated state and a deactivated state, and wherein causing the switching transistor to switch between at least one of the activated state and the deactivated state, switches a connection between an electronic circuit and a power supply between at least one of a on state and an off state.
