Abstract

See full text

A method of transmitting information to a mobile device uses a card reader inside of a housing. The read head is positioned offset from a center of a magnetic strip when the card is in the slot and is in contact with a bottom of the slot. A card is slid in the slot. Data is read from the magnetic stripe. A raw magnetic signal is produced indicative of data stored on the magnetic stripe. The raw magnetic head signal is converted into a processed digital signal that the microcontroller can interpret. An output jack signal is sent to the mobile device
