DYNAMIC IDENTITY REPRESENTATION IN MOBILE DEVICES
A mobile device includes a memory device, a display device, and processor coupled to a secure element. The secure element is configured to provide identity data that includes both static data and dynamic data. The memory device includes a plurality of applications and is coupled to the processor. When an application in the memory device is executed it causes the processor to request identity data from secure element in order to provide a representation of the identity data via the mobile device.
1 . A mobile device comprising:
a display device;
a processor;
a secure element coupled to the processor, the secure element configured to provide identity data when requested by the processor, the identity data including static data that does not change each time the identity data is requested, and dynamic data that does change each time the identity data is requested; and
a memory device coupled to the processor, the memory device including an application that when executed by the processor causes the processor to request the identity data from the secure element, and to display the identity data as a visual indication on the display device.
2 . The mobile device of claim 1 wherein the visual indication comprises a barcode.
3 . The mobile device of claim 1 wherein the static data comprises payment card account identification data.
4 . The mobile device of claim 1 wherein the dynamic data comprises payment card account verification data.
5 . The mobile device of claim 1 further comprising:
a speaker coupled to the processor;
wherein the application further causes the processor to request identity data from the secure element to be transmitted by the speaker; and
wherein a sequence of dynamic data provided to the processor for display differs from a sequence of dynamic data provided to the processor for transmission via the speaker.
6 . The mobile device of claim 1 further comprising:
a speaker coupled to the processor;
wherein the application further causes the processor to request identity data from the secure element to be transmitted by the speaker; and
wherein the dynamic data provided to the processor for display and dynamic data provided to the processor for transmission via the speaker are part of a common sequence of dynamic data.
7 . A mobile device comprising:
a plurality of devices to transmit identity data, wherein the plurality of devices includes a display device to display a visual indication of identity data, the display of the visual indication of identity data being one of a plurality of identity data transmission modes used by the plurality of devices;
a processor; and
a secure element configured to provide the identity data when requested by the processor, the identity data including static data and dynamic data, wherein the dynamic data provided to the processor over multiple requests forms a first sequence of dynamic data;
wherein the first sequence of dynamic data is unique to the identity data transmission mode corresponding to the display of the visual indication of identity data.
8 . The mobile device of claim 7 wherein the dynamic data comprises payment card account verification data.
9 . The mobile device of claim 7 wherein the visual indication comprises a barcode.
10 . The mobile device of claim 7 wherein the plurality of devices comprises a near field communications (NFC) radio, wherein transmission of identity data by the NFC radio is a second one of the plurality of identity data transmission modes.
11 . The mobile device of claim 7 wherein the plurality of devices comprises a speaker, wherein transmission of identity data by the speaker is a second one of the plurality of identity data transmission modes.
12 . The mobile device of claim 7 wherein the plurality of devices comprises a Wi-Fi radio, wherein transmission of identity data by the Wi-Fi radio is a second one of the plurality of identity data transmission modes.
13 . The mobile device of claim 7 wherein the plurality of devices comprises a bluetooth radio, wherein transmission of identity data by the bluetooth radio is a second one of the plurality of identity data transmission modes.
14 . The mobile device of claim 7 wherein the plurality of devices comprises a cellular telephone radio, wherein transmission of identity data by the cellular telephone radio is a second one of the plurality of identity data transmission modes.
15 . A mobile device comprising:
a plurality of devices to transmit identity data, wherein the plurality of devices includes a display device to display a visual indication of identity data, the display of the visual indication of identity data being one of a plurality of identity data transmission modes used by the plurality of devices; and
a secure element configured to provide identity data when requested, the identity data including static data and dynamic data, wherein the dynamic data provided over multiple requests forms a sequence of dynamic data;
wherein the sequence of dynamic data does not vary based on which of the plurality of identity data transmission modes is used to transmit identity data.
16 . A method comprising:
requesting identity data from a secure element;
receiving from the secure element identity data that includes static data that does not change for each request of identity data and dynamic data that does change for each request of identity data;
generating a visual indication of the identity data; and
displaying the visual indication on a display screen of a mobile device.
17 . The method of claim 16 wherein the dynamic data is generated by the secure element each time identity data is requested.
18 . The method of claim 16 wherein the static data comprises payment card account identification data.
19 . The method of claim 16 wherein the dynamic data comprises payment card account verification data.
20 . The method of claim 16 wherein the visual indication comprises a barcode.
