  • Fig. 8 is a block diagram showing the system architecture of an embodiment of the invention including a smart phone, and NFC chip and a cloud storage system.
  • Fig. 1A shows a heart shaped pendant 10 containing a center heart-shaped jewelry locket 12 shown from the front.
  • the jewelry locket is closed without being able to be opened from the front, although one could place a false door in the front of the locket.
  • a separate NFC chip 14 is shown in Fig. 1 B as is a separate cover 16 in Fig. 1C for holding the chip in place.
  • the pendant 10 may be carried on a chain 8.
  • Fig. 2A is a rear plan view of the pendant of Fig. 1 A and shows the open rear 11 of jewelry locket 12 with the chip 14 and cover 16 shown as Figs. 2A and 2B separated from locket 12.
  • a recess or rear compartment 18 is formed in the rear 11 of the locket 12.
  • Fig. 3A is another rear plan view of the heart of Fig. 1A showing the NFC chip 14 secured in place by an epoxy or other adhesive material attaching chip 14 in
  • compartment 18 There may be a cushioning material 20 provided between the chip 14 and walls 25 (see Fig. 5) of the compartment 18 so as to ensure secure attachment and impact minimization of the chip 14.
  • Cover 16 shown in Fig. 2C fits on the rear 22 of the locket 12 to secure the chip in place with the dog ears 24 of the cover 6 fitting into the dog ear recesses 26 in the corners of the rear of the locket 12 as shown in Fig. 4.
  • Fig. 4 is a rear plan view of this invention similar to Fig. 3A but showing the cover 16 in place holding the chip so as to be shock resistantly held in place and effectively operate. Cover 16 is flush with the rear surface of rear 22,

  • the NFC chip could be an MBT tag made by Toda Kogyo Corp. of Japan.
  • An NFC enabled smartphone 84 has a preloaded software application ("app") 86 which associates the NFC chip with a unique location in a cloud storage system 88 having the unique location associated with the specific NFC chip,
  • the recipient taps his/her smartphone 85 against locket 12 to establish an NFC link, and the smartphone then reads the NFC code which directs App 86 to connect smartphone 85 to the same cloud location related to that NFC code which was originally set when smartphone 84 was first tapped against locket 12.
  • smartphone 84 is linked to the specific cloud storage location where the stored media can be accessed and displayed on smartphone 85 which was originally set by smartphone 84.
  • the system works as follows: a person seeking to buy a special jewelry gift arranges to have an app 86 downloaded to the smartphone of the recipient of the gift.
  • the app communicates with the NFC chip 80 when the chip is brought into sufficient proximity with the smartphone so as to read a unique code or identifier from the NFC chip 80. Once the unique code is read, the app 86 to provides access to a cloud location associated with that unique code.
  • the purchaser of the gift also has access to the unique identifier associated with the NFC chip.
  • the purchaser e.g. a spouse
  • the app 86 will automatically associate her phone with the cloud location that is populated by content, such as photos uploaded by the gift purchaser.
  • Content in the unique cloud location can be uploaded by the party or parties who want to upload media to that cloud location.
  • Any NFC chip enabled smartphone could tap any item of jewelry containing an NFC chip with a preloaded unique cloud location and have direct access to that cloud location to download the media stored in that cloud location onto the NFC chip enabled smartphone.
  • This invention will find great appeal to those non-technical individuals who, by merely tapping their smartphone to a jewelry locket carried on a pendant or the like then has access to all the content seemingly magically carried to the smartphone by the locket without the recipient having to do anything more than tap the NFC enabled smartphone to the jewelry item containing the NFC chip.
  • the overall objective of this invention is to allow traditional jewelry wearers who may not be technically proficient enough to employ modern technology to use a special locket that appears to carry an enormous amount of content that can be seen on the screen of a smartphone.
  • the NFC chip itself, can store media, but media storage on such chips is extremely limited. It is a further object of this invention to provide access to media stored in a cloud specifically associated with an NFC chip which has a unique cloud location associated with that chip.
  • this invention provides for communication between a person's smartphone, which is NFC enabled and which has had an app downloaded to work with NFC devices, so that a unique location correlated with the specific NFC chip will be transmitted to the smartphone which then provides direct access through the app to the cloud in which the unlimited content can be accessed and viewed through the user's smartphone.
  • This invention may be used with any metal device, especially any jewelry item that can take advantage of the present invention.
  • This invention provides a unique combination of an NFC chip housed within metal, preferably precious metal, but so located as to provide sufficient distance between the walls of the NFC chip and the walls of a metal compartment in which the NFC chip sits.
  • the distances between the perimeter of the chip and the walls of the compartment or the structure of the walls themselves can be designed to enable RF transmission without serious degradation of the transmission characteristics. Preferred embodiments are described in this patent application.
