A device, such as a flexible card, may include a dynamic magnetic stripe emulator operable to transmit magnetic stripe information, a first magnet adjacent to a first side of the dynamic magnetic stripe emulator, and a second magnet adjacent to a second side of the dynamic magnetic stripe emulator.

A system for tracking a harvested agricultural product unit includes a magazine configured to be disposed on an agricultural implement and to facilitate insertion of one or more stakes into the harvested agricultural product unit. The magazine is also configured to store the one or more stakes having a radio frequency identification (RFID) tag. The RFID tag is configured to identify the harvested agricultural product unit and to associate the harvested agricultural product unit with harvesting data. Further, the system includes an insertion device configured to insert one of the stakes from the magazine into the harvested agricultural product unit.

Provided is an IC tag favorably applicable even to linen products. An IC tag 100 using a magnetic field type tag unit 110 in which an IC chip and a coil antenna to be electrically connected to the IC chip are embedded inside a hard resin material. The IC tag includes: a flexible film made of resin (a base film 121, a cover film 123, and a protective film 124); and an auxiliary antenna 122 formed on the film, wherein the magnetic field type tag unit 110 is fixed to the film by an adhesive 130 with elasticity at a position that enables communication by electromagnetic coupling between the coil antenna and the auxiliary antenna 122.

Provided is a method of magnetically controlling a magnetic structure, the method including: providing a solution containing magnetic structures, each including a magnetic axis in which magnetic nanoparticles are arranged; and controlling movements of the magnetic structures by applying an external magnetic field to the solution.

A transaction card construction and a method for making transaction cards provides increased security for transaction card magnetic strips. The transaction card construction includes a card inlay and a clear card body. The card inlay is formed via a lamination press process with the magnetic strip attached to a back surface of the card inlay. The card body may have a window through which a data storage element may be exposed for accessing, such as by a magnetic stripe reader or EMV chip reader. The card body may be formed by adhering the card inlay to the clear card body.

An circuit includes a first inductive coil and a second inductive coil each including a plurality of metal traces. The first and second inductive coils are each configured to receive a first signal from an electromagnetic field and generate respective first and second output voltages. Each of the first inductive coil and the second inductive coil are configured to inductively couple to the electromagnetic field. A first circuit element is configured to receive the first output voltage and generate a first response at a first power level of the first output voltage. A second circuit element is configured to receive the second output voltage and transition to an active state to perform one or more functions when the second output voltage exceeds a second power level. The first and second power levels are related to movement of the first and second inductive coils through the electromagnetic field.
