Zusammenfassung:A wearable device (4) for secure execution of Near Field Communications identity-based data transactions with an enclosure (8) that contains a secure NFC integrated circuit (40), a secure Bluetooth Low Energy integrated circuit (48), a microcontroller (48) with a firmware program (104), a battery (44), and a passive sensor (16) that activates the microcontroller (48) when the device is removed or donned by the user. If the NFC integrated circuit (40) is in the enabled state when the microcontroller (48) is activated by the sensor (16), the firmware program (104) disables the NFC integrated circuit (40) function. If the NFC integrated circuit (40) is the disabled state when the microcontroller (48) is activated by the sensor (16), the Bluetooth Low Energy integrated circuit (48) is activated and a Personal Identification Number must entered into a software application (112) running on a Bluetooth-connected computing device (22) to enable the NFC integrated circuit (40) function.
