Patent ID: 7058362

Claim:
A wireless communication system comprising: a number of actuators each having one or more antenna associated therewith and being adaptable to be located on or within an element and being adaptable for causing said element to deform in a desired manner when actuated; control transceiver means, operable to communicate in a wireless manner with said number of actuators, for supplying a modulated command signal to at least one antenna; whereby, in response to said modulated command signal, material characteristics of the respective actuator or actuators cause said modulated command signal to be demodulated without the use of any active electronic devices, whereupon said element is enabled to achieve the desired deformation; and communications means for communicating said modulated command signal between a controlling base unit and at least one of said number of actuators, which includes a substrate portion having non-linear material characteristics in order to transmit said modulated command signal.
