Cell phone tech and intelligent cash device

The Wallet Card is the first IoT Card™ from Dynamics. With almost 200 internal components, this Internet of Things device incorporates a number of cutting-edge technologies including:
  • A cell phone chip and cell phone antenna so data can be transferred between Wallet Card and the bank anywhere in the world and at any time of the day.
  • A battery and organic recharging chip so that the card charges itself through normal operation. Wallet Card can last indefinitely without the need for the consumer to perform any physical action.
  • A card-programmable magnetic stripe, card-programmable EMV chip, and a card-programmable contactless chip. At any time a new card profile can be downloaded to the card so that when that card is selected, the card’s magnetic stripe, EMV, and contactless data is written to the associated components.
  • A 65,000 pixel display and user interface so that a cardholder can change between different cards and informational screens. 
This really is an intelligent cash device packaged as an ATM card. Wow, and they are getting a bunch of design awards.  This is an impressive integration.  The cell technology gives this thing instant communications.

OK, great.  You don't always need that, one can wait until  an ATM or kiosk with an NFC interface.  But, cell phone? Why not, try it out, there are a myriad of reasons this will work.
