Abstract:
A card may store data on integrated circuits housed within the card. The card includes two short-range antennas and one long-range antenna that are configured to transmit the data. Antennas of the card may be configured to transmit the data in different directions as a result of a signal-blocking layer embedded within the card that isolates respective antennas from electromagnetic signals originating from a direction on the opposing side of the blocking layer. The long-range antenna may be configured to transmit identification data of the user, while the short-range antennas may be configured to transmit financial data related to the user. A system may be configured to instantiate events for the user of the card with the long-range antenna. Events that are instantiated by the long-range antenna may then be executed using the short-range antennas.
