Definitions
- Radio-frequency identification (RFID) technologies have been incorporated into bracelets and are being used for such things as identification, access control, and age verification.
- RFID Radio-frequency identification
- various venues have begun to use RFID bracelets to quickly and uniquely identify patrons that have access to restricted areas, such as back stage events, alcoholic beverage sales, etc.
- These bracelets can be made using a narrow band of plastic or other suitable material and a prefabricated RFID tag, so that they are inexpensive to produce and easy to use.
- RFID bracelets are susceptible to misuse and unauthorized use.
- the bracelet can be slid over the wearer's wrist and removed from the wearer without disabling the RFID function of the bracelet.
- the authorized patron could provide the opportunity to give access to a restricted area to an unauthorized patron. For example, a patron with an "adult" RFID bracelet that allows access to alcoholic beverage sales could be removed and given or sold to a patron not of legal drinking age. A number of mechanical measures have been taken to prevent such RFID bracelets from being transferred.
- personnel administering an authorized RFE bracelet haphazardly attach the RFID bracelet to an authorized wearer such that removal is possible by sliding the bracelet over the wrist.
- the RFID bracelet can be removed and given or sold to an unauthorized user.
- the unauthorized user can then slide the RFID bracelet over his or her wrist and proceed to make unauthorized purchases and/or enter restricted areas.
- the issuing venue is responsible for these unauthorized uses. For example, if a minor uses an authorized person's RFID bracelet to purchase alcoholic beverages, the issuing venue can loose its license to sell such beverages and/or be imposed a fine.
- the present invention is an authorization method and system for an RFED bracelet that can be tightened after it is attached to an authorized wearer such that unauthorized removal of the bracelet disables the RFID functionality.
- a method for authorizing use of a disabling RFID apparatus includes attaching the apparatus to a wearer, verifying credentials associated with use of the apparatus, and tightening the apparatus to the wearer to prevent unauthorized removal of the apparatus.
- An optional security method can be included by updating a data field indicating the credentials have been verified and the apparatus has been tightened to the wearer.
- the method further includes checking the validity of the RFID apparatus prior to use and using the RFID apparatus upon validation, wherein checking the validity of the RFID apparatus includes visually inspecting the RFID apparatus by an authorized person or electronically inspecting the RFID apparatus using an RFID reading system.
- electronically inspecting the RFID apparatus using an RFID reading system includes placing the RFID apparatus in proximity to an RFID reader, and, if the RFID apparatus is functional, reading identification information associated with the RFID apparatus. Next, a database is searched using the identification information of the RFID apparatus to determine if the data field has been updated indicating the credentials have been verified and the apparatus has been tightened to the wearer. Use of the RFID apparatus is allowed if the data field has been updated.
- the RFID apparatus can include an electrically conductive loop disposed in the band, wherein severance of the electrically conductive loop disables the apparatus.
- the RFID apparatus can further include a tightening mechanism for attaching the apparatus to the wearer.
- the tightening mechanism can include a series of projections positioned to allow the apparatus to be tightened and not loosened. The series of projections can sever the electrically conductive loop on an attempt to loosen the band.
- the RFID apparatus can include an RFID circuit disposed in the band and an antenna also disposed in the band.
- the RFID circuit, the antenna, and the electrically conductive loop are coupled in series, wherein severance of the electrically conductive loop necessarily disables the RFID circuit.
- the credentials associated with use of the apparatus can include age of the wearer, access to a restricted area, and/or a reentry request. In one embodiment, the credentials associated with use of the apparatus can be verified by authorized personnel. In still a further embodiment, the credentials data field can be stored on an electrically erasable programmable read-only memory within an RFID chip or in an external database.
- FIG. IA shows a plan view of an RFID bracelet using a single use locking- hole mechanism according to the prior art
- FIG. 1 B shows a plan view of an RFID bracelet using an adhesive locking mechanism according to the prior art
- FIG. 2A shows a plan view of an embodiment of the RFID bracelet including one embodiment of a tightening mechanism
- FIG. 2B shows a partial, exploded cross-sectional view of the tightening mechanism of FIG. 2 A.
- FIGS. 3 A and 3B show a flow chart diagram for activating the RFID bracelet of FIGS. 2A and 2B.
- passive radio frequency identification (RFID) bracelets include circuits containing an antenna and other circuitry that responds to an RF interrogation signal.
- a transponder In response to the RF interrogation signal, a transponder emits an RF signal representative of information pre-stored or pre-programmed into the transponder.
- the information could include a serial number, the date the bracelet is issued, the date the bracelet expires and will no longer be usable for access, the age status of the wearer, and/or whether the bracelet can be used for purchasing goods or services. Any other desired information, depending on the context in which the bracelet is to be used, may be pre-stored or pre-programmed in the transponder.
- Information stored on the transponder chip may also be used to access information stored in a database.
- the antenna is typically formed as an etched copper coil, though it may be formed using a conductive ink, electrodeposited copper, or the like.
- the transponder is electrically connected to and derives power from the RF signal received by the antenna.
- a connection is made between the antenna and the transponder in the form of a continuous electrically conductive loop that extends along the length of the wristband.
- the conductive loop serves a disabling function such that severance of any portion of the wristband also severs the conductive loop, thus rendering the RFID function of the bracelet inoperable.
- FIG. IA is a general illustration of a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) bracelet 100 using a single use locking-hole mechanism according to the prior art.
- the bracelet 100 is generally an elongated band 110 with opposite ends 112, 114 that can be brought together and fastened to form a closed loop around a wearer's wrist, for example.
- RFID Radio Frequency Identification
- the band 110 includes a plurality of adjustment holes 116, a single-use locking mechanism 118, and an RFID transponder circuit 120 including a tamper wire 122 that is an electrically conductive continuous loop running along the length of the band 110.
- the combination of the RFID transponder circuit 120 and tamper wire 122 preferably span the length of the band 110, such that any cut, tear, or severing made to remove the band 110 from the wearer will necessarily render the bracelet 100 unusable.
- the single-use locking mechanism 118 is a mechanical non-reusable tamper- resistant locking mechanism. As illustrated, the single-use locking mechanism 118 consists of a barbed peg 124 and a locking hole 126 in a flap 128 of the band 110. The single-use locking mechanism 118 is used to fasten the opposite ends 112, 114 of the band 110 together under the flap 128 to form the closed loop as will be explained in more detail below. - 5 -
- the adjustment holes 116 are used to adjust the bracelet 100 to conform to body parts of different circumferences, e.g., a wrist or an ankle.
- the barbed peg 124 is inserted through a selected hole 116 as required for a snug fit.
- the flap 128 is then folded along an imaginary line 130 and the barbed peg 124 is then passed through the locking hole 126.
- the barbed peg 124 is shaped to resist removal from the locking hole 126 without also destroying the locking mechanism 118 and rendering it incapable of being refastened. hi some instances personnel administering the bracelet 100 haphazardly attach the bracelet 100 to the wearer such that removal is possible by sliding the bracelet 100 over the wrist.
- FIG. IB is a general illustration of an RFID bracelet 100' using an adhesive locking mechanism 140 according to the prior art.
- the bracelet 100' includes similar components as described with reference to FIG. IA, except the adjustment holes 116 and the locking mechanism 118 have been replaced with an adhesive locking mechanism 140.
- the adhesive locking mechanism 140 is used to adjust the bracelet 100' to conform to body parts of different circumferences and is well known in the art.
- Personnel administering the bracelet 100', as with the bracelet of FIG. IA haphazardly attach the bracelet 100' to the wearer such that removal is possible by sliding the bracelet 100' over the wrist. It is preferable that one of the tamper wire 122 or the RFID transponder circuit 120 overlap with the adhesive mechanism 140.
- the RFID transponder 120 is depicted in the center of the band 110' in the previously described embodiments, it can also be located near or at an opposite end 112', 114' of the band 110'.
- FIG. 2A illustrates one embodiment of an RFID apparatus 200 according to the present invention that is adapted for mechanisms that tighten the wristband around a wearer's wrist or ankle.
- the apparatus includes a band portion 202 including a plurality of adjustment holes 204, a tightening locking mechanism 208, and an RFID circuit 210.
- the RFID circuit 210 includes a radio frequency identification (RFID) transponder chip 212, and an antenna element 214.
- the antenna element 214 is coupled to an electrically conductive loop 216 that preferably runs down the length of the band portion 202 and preferably closely surrounding each of the adjustment holes 204.
- the RFID apparatus 200 includes a hole 222 into which a tightening mechanism 208 may fit. As shown in FIG.
- an exemplary tightening mechanism includes a housing 300 having an entrance opening 302 at a first end and an exit opening 304 at an opposite end thereof. Openings 302, 304 are dimensioned to allow a tail 220 of band 202 to pass therethrough.
- a first series of projections 228 are disposed within housing 300 and extend towards a path defined by openings 302, 304.
- a second series of projections 306 extends generally towards projections 228. Projections 228 and 306 are in substantially facing relationship across a gap b. Gap b being sized, and projections 228, 306 being disposed to engage holes 204 as tail 220 moves in the direction of arrow A through housing 300. In a preferred, but not limiting example, projections 228, 306 are angled in the downstream direction of arrow A.
- Housing 300 may be a fit onto band portion 202 through an extension 224 formed on a bottom portion of the tightening mechanism housing 300 extending through hole 222 and secured by a snap 226.
- the tail 220 of band 202 is inserted into the tightening mechanism 208, such that the tail 220 fits into an interior portion of the tightening mechanism 208.
- Projections 228, 306 are angled inward to engage portions of the tail 220 as it is inserted therein in the direction of arrow A and tightened against the wearer's wrist or ankle.
- the tightening mechanism 208 arrangement thus permits or provides an RFID bracelet 200 that can be tightened against a wearer's wrist or ankle without necessarily severing the electrically conductive loop 216.
- the projections 228, 306 inside the tightening mechanism 208 engage respective adjacent ones of the holes 204 as the tail 220 is drawn through the tightening mechanism 208.
- the projections 228, 306 may deflect in the direction of arrow A, but are rigid in the opposite direction. Any attempt by the wearer to remove the apparatus 200 by pushing and/or pulling the band portion 202 back through the tightening mechanism 208 in a direction opposite to arrow A with sufficient force will thus cause damage to its respective hole 204, thereby rupturing the adjacent portion of the electrically conductive loop 216.
- the RFH) chip 212 becomes disabled once the electrically conductive loop 216 becomes ruptured or severed. It should be noted that an angled camming type of projection is shown by way of example. However, any type of projection which deflects more easily in one (specific) direction than another may be used.
- the tightening mechanism 208 can be a ratchet and pawl type assembly wherein the holes 204 are replaced by a series of teeth along a length of the band 202.
- the teeth can engage the ratchet and pawl type assembly in a one way direction thereby allowing the apparatus to be tightened to a wearer, but do not allow movement in the reverse direction damaging the KFID circuit.
- the wearer can return the bracelet to authorized personnel and receive the wearer's deposit back.
- the RFID function of the apparatus will become disabled once the release mechanism is engaged, such as by software, to allow removal of the apparatus.
- the RFID function can only be enabled by authorized personnel.
- FIGS.3 A and 3B show a flow diagram of a method of using the adjustable RFID apparatus 200 shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B or even other potentially differently configured adjustable wristbands in order to prevent unauthorized use of unauthorized removed or discarded bracelets.
- a person requests access to an RFID apparatus 200 for a particular purpose, such as authorized purchases, entry to a restricted area, and/or exit and reentry to a venue. For example, the age of a person is verified in the connection of purchasing alcoholic beverages, whereas a guest list could be checked to determine if the person has access to a restriction area.
- the system would know that the person had previously been checked by an authorized party and would grant reentry to the venue.
- an RFID apparatus 200 is issued (granted) if access to a venue is authorized for such purposes (step 310). Access is denied if the apparatus is not authorized.
- step 320 the person (wearer) or an authorized person attaches the RFID bracelet to the requesting wearer's wrist or ankle.
- An authorized person who may be different from the authorized person of step 320, verifies the credentials of the wearer of the bracelet 200 (step 330). For example, at a venue where some patrons may be entitled to access alcoholic beverages and others may not, alcoholic beverage dispensing personnel may verify the credentials of the particular person.
- the authorized person tightens the bracelet 200 snugly against the wearer of the bracelet 200 (step 340). The authorized person should tighten the bracelet snugly enough so that the bracelet 200 cannot be slid off the wrist or ankle without incurring the aforementioned damage.
- the bracelet 200 is tightened sufficiently against the wrist or ankle of the wearer so that any attempt to remove the bracelet 200 by backing the tail 220 of the band portion 202 out of tightening mechanism 208 in a direction opposite to arrow A will cause damage to the electrically conductive loop 216 adjacent to one or more of the holes 204.
- This process thus prevents a situation which might otherwise occur when an unauthorized person, such as someone under legal drinking age obtains access to an older person's alcohol-authorized bracelet 200, who only secured it loosely to their wrist and then subsequently slipped the wristband off of the wrist and handed it to an unauthorized person.
- the individual wearing bracelet 200 is authorized for access to the appropriate limited services, such as the service of alcoholic beverages.
- An optional security measure can include updating a data field that indicates the credentials of the wearer have been verified and that the bracelet 200 has been tightened by an authorized person. At this point, the individual wearing bracelet 200 is authorized for access to the appropriate limited services, such as the service of alcoholic beverages. However, the bracelet 200 is checked for validity (step 360) each time the wearer tries to engage in such limited services.
- a wristband with tightening capabilities can be used, such as a wristband with a generic single-use adhesive or barbed-peg and hole closure mechanism.
- the authorized person would instead visually inspect the apparatus to ensure that it is adequately attached to the wearer. If the apparatus is not adequately attached, such as if there is a cut in the band or if it is on too loosely attached, the authorized person would replace the apparatus before issuing the individual authorization.
- the optional security measure (step 350) can subsequently be entered.
- the validity (step 360) of the bracelet 200 can be checked by either visually inspecting the bracelet 200 for tears by an authorized person or electronically inspecting the bracelet 200 utilizing an RFID reading system. Utilizing an RFDD reading system, the bracelet 200 is placed in proximity to an RFID reader. If the bracelet 200 is functional (not tampered with), the reader reads identification information associated with the bracelet 200. Next, a database may be searched using the identification information of the bracelet to determine if the data field has been updated indicating the credentials have been verified and the apparatus has been tightened to the wearer. If the data field has been updated, the intended purpose (use) of the bracelet 200 is allowed.
- the wearer may wish to remove the bracelet 200 (step 380).
- the RFID functionality of the bracelet 200 ceases to operate.
- a predetermined time limit or spending limit may be associated with the bracelet 200 which when reached will also deactivate the RFID functionality of the bracelet 200.
- the data field updating step can be performed by accessing data that is stored on an Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM) within the bracelet 200 specifically within the RFID chip 212 and/or accessing a database while the bracelet 200 is in the vicinity of a reader.
- EEPROM Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory
- projections 228 of the tightening mechanism 208 are formed with a thick enough portion of material and/or physically stronger materials than the materials used to form the bracelet 200. This guarantees that the bracelet 200 will break prior to individual projections 228 breaking, thus further ensuring that the electrically conductive loop 216 is disrupted when the bracelet is attempted to be removed or modified.
