International Classification:
G06K 7/08, G06K 5/00
US Classification:
235437, 235449
Abstract:
A method of transmitting encrypted information to a mobile device and a payment service uses a card reader. The card reader has device electronics that include a microcontroller with logic resources with code and an output jack. A raw magnetic head signal is received from a reading of the card in the slot. The raw magnetic head signal is converted into a processed digital signal that the microcontroller can interpret. The logic resources and the code create both an encryption and signed signal. An encrypted and signed output jack message is delivered to the mobile device through the output jack based on the contents of the signal, with at least a portion of the output jack signal being encrypted.

International Classification:
G06K 7/08
US Classification:
235449
Abstract:
A method of transmitting information to a mobile device uses a card reader that has an asymmetric spring. The card reader includes a housing with length, height and width dimensions, a read head with a slot, a microcontroller, an output jack and the asymmetric spring coupled to the read head. The asymmetrical spring positions the read head to be offset in the housing, with the housing length and height edges being non-symmetrical in respect to the length and height edges of the read head. A card is slid in the slot. Data is read from the magnetic stripe; A raw magnetic signal is produced indicative of data stored on the magnetic stripe. The raw magnetic head signal is converted into a processed digital signal that the microcontroller can interpret. An output jack signal is sent to the mobile device.
