The wallet incorporates RFID-blocking layers to prevent electronic data theft from contactless cards and features an integrated solar-powered rechargeable battery to ensure long-term, self-sustained operation. The invention thus provides a compact, energy-efficient and multi-layer secure personal accessory that effectively combines biometric authentication, real-time tracking and smart theft-response capabilities in a single portable device."
