Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a contactless card for selecting an application using tilt information,

The present invention relates to a contactless card for selecting an application using tilt information. More particularly, the present invention relates to a contactless card capable of automatically activating an application desired by a user using tilt information of a contactless card on which a plurality of applications are installed.

Generally, a smart card refers to a plastic card capable of processing predetermined information through communication with a card reader.

Such a smart card has a contact type card and a non-contact type card according to a communication method with a card reader, and a Combi card and a hybrid card in which a contact card and a non-contact card are combined in one card . A contact card is a card capable of communicating with a card reader by contacting a gold-plated contact surface with a card reader. A contactless card is a card that is wirelessly connected to a radio frequency Frequency) type of card that can communicate with the card reader.

The contact type card has an IC chip (Integrated Circuit Chip) built in an inlay made of a plastic resin and has an operation mode in which when the card is inserted into the card reader, the contact of the card contacts the contact of the card reader, . The contact type card having this type of operation is mainly used in fields requiring high security, but there is a problem that electrical shock or physical damage may occur due to frequent contact of contacts.

In the contactless type card, the arithmetic element and the memory element necessary for the information processing function are the same as the contact type card, but the power supply for driving the chip in the card is made through the electromagnetic coupling of the wireless antenna, It is distinguished from the contact card in that it uses the induction method. In other words, the non-contact type card includes a loop type wireless antenna and an RF chip in an inlay layer made of a plastic resin. When the card is approached to the card reader, an induced electromotive force is generated in the wireless antenna, Can be read by the card reader. This contactless card is strong against the external environment because it does not have direct contact with the outside, and operates when it is approached only within a certain distance without needing to insert or contact with the card lid. Therefore, The application range is gradually expanding.

On the other hand, in order to perform various transaction functions (applications) independent of each other using one card, application modules supporting respective functions must be provided on the card. In an actual transaction process, There is a problem in that the convenience associated with the use of the card is deteriorated because a separate input process is required through the card terminal to activate the application.
