Abstract:
A case for a mobile device that can include a piezoelectric component that is configured to output current in response to external pressure applied to the case, a switch between a near-field communication (NFC) antenna and an NFC circuit, and a controller that is configured to be powered by the current from the piezoelectric component to open the switch after an amount of time during which the switch is closed after the external pressure stops being applied to the case.
