A method for forming a medium, the method comprising the steps of:
- forming an antenna layer having an antenna on a base layer;
- providing a transponder having a memory and adapted to cooperate with the antenna with the transponder having a thickness;
- joining a material layer to the antenna layer, the material layer having a thickness that is at least equal to the thickness of the transponder and having a void sized to receive the transponder;
- and,
- positioning the transponder in the void so that the transponder can cooperate with the antenna formed on the antenna.
