Smart key card

1. A key card device comprising:

a memory device storing a digital signature for controlling at least one access mechanism;

a wireless transceiver; and

logic configured to:

establish an authorization policy with a mobile communication device;

receive a request from the mobile communication device to authorize a user request via the wireless transceiver;

determine whether the key card device is activated;

determine whether the received request satisfies the established authorization policy; and

authorize the received request via the wireless transceiver, in response to determining that the key card device is activated and in response to determining that the received request satisfies the established authorization policy.

2. The key card device of claim 1 , wherein the logic is further configured to:

identify the mobile communication device as being associated with a user of the key card device;

install the key card application on the mobile communication device in response to receiving the requested authorization.

3. The key card device of claim 2 , wherein the logic is further configured to:

receive a deactivation request from a facility management system, associated with the key card device, to deactivate the key card device;

deactivate the key card device in response to receiving the deactivation request; and

uninstall the key card application from the mobile communication device in response to receiving the deactivation request.

4. The key card device of claim 1 , wherein, when determining whether the received request satisfies the established authorization policy, the logic is further configured to:

determine whether the received request is included in a list of requests included in the authorization policy.

5. The key card device of claim 1 , wherein the request includes streaming particular content to the mobile communication device.

6. The key card device of claim 1 , wherein the request includes at least one of:

a request to contact a person on duty associated with a facility associated with the key card device;

a request to control a device associated with the key card device;

a request to obtain content associated with the facility; or

a request to contact a service associated with the facility.

a Bluetooth wireless transceiver; or

a Near Field Communication transceiver.

8. A method, performed by a mobile communication device, the method comprising:

installing, by the mobile communication device, a key card application associated with a key card device;

receiving, by the mobile communication device, a user request via a user interface associated with the key card application;

sending, by the mobile communication device, an authorization request to the key card device to authorize the received user request;

receiving, by the mobile communication device, an authorization message from the key card device; and

processing, by the mobile communication device, the user request in response to receiving the authorization message.

9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:

receiving data associated with the key card device;

sending an authorization request to the key card device to authorize the received data;

receiving an authorization of the received data from the key card device; and

providing the received data to a user interface in response to receiving the authorization of the received data.

10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the user request includes at least one of:

a request to contact a person on duty associated with a facility management system associated with the key card device;

a request to control a device associated with the key card device;

a request to obtain content associated with the facility management system;

a request to contact a service associated with the facility management system;

a request for directions to a facility associated with the key card device; or

streaming particular content to the mobile communication device.

11. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:

receiving an instruction from the key card device to uninstall the key card application; and

uninstalling the key card application in response to receiving the instruction.

12. The method of claim 8 , wherein the mobile communication device communicates with the key card device using at least one of:

a Bluetooth transceiver; or

a Near Field Communication transceiver.

13. A mobile communication device comprising:

logic configured to:

install a key card application associated with a key card device;

receive a user request via a user interface associated with the key card application;

send an authorization request to the key card device to authorize the received user request;

receive an authorization message from the key card device; and

process the user request in response to receiving the authorization message.

14. The mobile communication device of claim 13 , wherein the logic is further configured to:

receive data associated with the key card device;

send an authorization request to the key card device to authorize the received data;

receive an authorization of the received data from the key card device; and

provide the received data to a user interface in response to receiving the authorization of the received data.

15. The mobile communication device of claim 13 , wherein the user request includes at least one of:

a request to contact a person on duty associated with a facility management system associated with the key card device;

a request to control a device associated with the key card device;

a request to obtain content associated with the facility management system;

a request to contact a service associated with the facility management system;

a request for directions to a facility associated with the key card device; or

streaming particular content to the mobile communication device.

16. The mobile communication device of claim 13 , wherein the logic is further configured to:

receive an instruction from the key card device to uninstall the key card application; and

uninstall the key card application in response to receiving the instruction.

17. The mobile communication device of claim 13 , wherein the mobile communication device communicates with the key card device using at least one of:

a Bluetooth transceiver; or

a Near Field Communication transceiver.
