A business card is formed so that a USB connector can be created by folding the card along a centerline crease. The USB contacts are formed on the surface of the card and are connected to a memory on the card. To overcome the problem of the connector being too thin and not being held securely in the USB port on a PC, the card is folded in half. The resilience of the card forces the connectors on the upper surface into contact with the connectors in the PC port. The card may also be designed such that the constituent components of the connector form an "E" shape in the card. This allows the top of the card to be broken away along a preformed cut and then folded to form the connector. The memory may hold contact details, brochures or other digital information. |
