Claims20
A method of fabricating a card, comprising:
- providing a first layer of polymer;
- providing a second layer of polymer:
- providing a flexible circuit board between the first and second layers;
- providing a material including at least one manual user interface between the first and second layers, the at least one manual user interface inside the material;
- providing a soft laminate between the first and second layers, the material separating the laminate from the at least one manual user interface;
- and
- hardening the laminate.
