MOUNTED TOKEN SYSTEM AND TRACKING
A mounted token system is configured to be worn by a wearer as a part of the grieving process. The mounted token system may include a token with an tracking indicator, a token mount, and a server. The token mount includes an anterior segment which includes an anterior opening, and a posterior segment moveable relative to the anterior segment. The token mount is configured to secure the token therein. At least a portion of the token is visible from an anterior side through the anterior opening. The server performs the following steps: present, to a first user via a graphical user interface, an invitation to provide information indicative of the tracking indicator of the token; receive, from the first user, information indicative of the tracking indicator; and store information indicative of the tracking indicator. The token may then be passed to a subsequent wearer, utilizing a new token mount.
Contactless card with transmission blocking element
Approaches herein provide protection for an identification chip of a contactless device using a transmission blocking element. In some approaches, a contactless card may include a body having first and second main sides. An identification chip may be coupled to the first main side, and the transmission blocking element may be slidably coupled to the body. The identification chip is covered by the transmission blocking element in a first position, and uncovered by the transmission blocking element when the transmission blocking element is in a second position. The transmission blocking element may include a first section extending along the first main side of the body, and a second section extending parallel to the first section. The transmission blocking element may further include a tab coupling together the first and second sections, wherein the tab is positioned within an internal slot embedded within the body.

Card holder and electronic device
A card holder is used for an electronic device having a housing, and is able to accommodate a data card and be inserted into the housing. The card holder includes a card tray and a card cover. The card tray is configured to accommodate the data card. The card cover is connected to the card tray, is rotatable relative to the card tray, and includes a first end and a second end opposite to each other and a first protrusion extending towards the card tray. When the card holder is in a state of being inserted into the housing and a pushing force is applied to the first end, the card cover is rotatable about the first protrusion such that the first end extends further into the housing and the second end extends out of the housing. An electronic device is also provided.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ATTACHING IDENTIFICATION TAGS TO OBJECTS USING A FLEXIBLE ATTACHMENT DEVICE
The present invention is a system and method for the attachment of a tracking sensor or identification device placed on an object without the need for an attachment tool or fasteners such as adhesives, rivets, screws, or bolts. Through the interaction of the attachment device and the particular portions of the object to which it is attached as to secure the device to the object using tension between the device and object due to the device having flexible prongs which grip the object when properly located on the object.
Automated Screw Identification System and Method
A tray includes a plurality of rows, each of which includes a plurality of slots. Each row contains a plurality of screws. Different rows may contain screws of different types, e.g., lengths. Each of one or more rows contains a machine-readable object (e.g., peg) containing data representing properties of the objects in the corresponding rows. Removal of an object from a row is performed by reading data from the machine-readable object in the row and using that data to modify (e.g., decrement or increment) a count of the type of object contained in that row.
Devices and methods for contactless card alignment with a foldable mobile device
Example embodiments of systems, methods, and devices for transaction card alignment are provided. In one example embodiment, a mobile device may include a first component and a second component foldable with respect to one another between a first configuration and a second configuration. The mobile device may further include a screen interface on an interior side of the first component, and an alignment feature along the interior side, the alignment feature providing alignment for a contactless card with respect to the screen interface, wherein the contactless card is uncovered by the second component in the first configuration and covered by the second component in the second configuration.
MOBILE DEVICE CASE FOR SECURED ACCESS AND IMPROVEMENTS
Mobile device cases are provided which, in a first embodiment, selectively limit a user's ability to control the user's own mobile electronic device. The case includes front and rear portions joined together and defining therein an opening for receiving a mobile electronic device, such as a mobile phone. A locking mechanism is provided for selectively securing the opening in a first locked position to prevent operational access to the mobile electronic device by the user until a predetermined condition is met. The case includes an indicia of time visible to the user during the period of time of prevented operational access. In a further embodiment, a case is provided with first and second polymeric shells each having an interior and an exterior surface thereon and connected together by at least one hinge portion. The first and second shell portions form a cavity of sufficient size to cover a mobile electronic device sufficiently to prevent access by its user. Tamper resistant and ultrasonic sensor defeating mobile device case embodiments are also contemplated by this invention.

The token may then be passed to a subsequent wearer, utilizing a new token mount.
Transaction card having features for easy removal from wallet
A transaction card includes a first full thickness portion and a second, reduced thickness portion. Each of the first and second portions includes a top surface and an opposing bottom surface spaced from the top surface by a thickness of the card. The first, full thickness portion includes an extent of the card that remains exposed when the card is inserted into a pocket of a card-carrying case, and a feature deviating from a flat region along at least one of the top surface and the opposing bottom surface of the card. The feature is configured for tactile engagement to facilitate removal of the card from the pocket.
