    Abstract: The present invention is a novel thin and flexible radio frequency (RF) tag that comprises a semiconductor circuit that has logic, memory, and radio frequency circuits, connected to an antenna with all interconnections placed on a single plane of wiring without crossovers. The elements of the package (substrate, antenna, and laminated covers) are flexible. The elements of the package are all thin. The tag is thin and flexible, enabling a unique range of applications including: RF ID tagging of credit cards, passports, admission tickets, and postage stamps.

    Abstract: Methods for processing information to be substantially unintelligible by a machine but understandable by a person include disguising information in the form of tex t and creating a graphical image file of the text. The text may be disguised before, during o r after the creation of the graphical image file. The text may be disguised by manipulating the characte rs of the text, such as by replacing characters of the text by other characters having a similar appearance or by words corresponding to the characters, or by adding obviously superfluous characte rs or words to the text, for example. The text may also be disguised by processing the graphical imag e file to provide a background to the text which has low contrast with respect to the text. An alpha-numeric or textured background may be provided, for example. The graphical image file may be par t of a Java Applet. Text may also be disguised through direct encoding in a Java Applet. It woul d be difficult or impossible for a machine to accurately capture the disguised information wit h a harvesting program, even if the program used optical character recognition. Information may also be disguised in the form of a dynamic media, such as audio or video. Creation of the audio or video file may be sufficient disguise; the information may be further disguised, as well. The audio or video file may also be part of a Java Applet. Once again, it would be difficult or impossib le for a machine to accurately capture such information. The invention is particularly suited fo r disguising personal information on a communications network, such as an e-mail address on a web page stored on the World Wide Web. Computer readable media storing the media file, software executable to disguise the information, web sites including the disguised information and servers storing the disguised information, are also disclosed.
