Near Field Communication Technology: A New Evolution!



Near Field Communication (NFC) technology aims to introduce more flexibility and convenience in our lives by making the exchange of digital data connections between electronic devices, and transactions much easier. NFC technology finds application particularly in mobile phones, which work by identifying the NFC tag (integrated card) to another device that is in close distance (40-10 cm), which leads to the exchange of data between the two. Near Field Communication technology is actually an evolution of RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology for contactless payment systems.

NFC technology also is believed to be very similar to Bluetooth technology, except that it requires only two mobile devices in the immediate vicinity, without any need to determine the pairing of two devices to work together as in the case of Bluetooth.

Although the Near Field Communication technology is still undergoing a variety of pilot tests around the world, it has some great opportunities in the development of numerous applications for the market in the near future. Some major areas of application are:

...

* Transportation: NFC can be used for contactless payment cards in public transport systems such as railways, taxis, and buses. Each time a person travels, check-in (parking fee and ticket), and check-out can be done using your mobile phone to touch the NFC tag and the amount can be reduced from its source to pay directly.

* Health: It is widely used in the health domain, as well as research areas for various bolesti.NFC tags can be scanned by health workers, and nurses care for patients and the data can be stored in the database podataka.Povijest patient visits and medication for it can easily be accessed whenever needed by the doctor. This is a great potential to improve health standards throughout the world.

...

* Marketing: Near Field Communication finds a large number of marketers to advertise their product promos to a wider audience through the NFC Smart plakata.Osoba can simply touch the NFC-enabled phones on posters (which is the NFC tag) to get all information such as promos, coupons, and tickets for the event, movie, or play. This means that everything related to the event can be transferred to the phone using NFC posters even while you travel. Smart Poster is an excellent way of viral marketing and attracting new customers for the product or service. Smart posters is already in trials in the Asia Pacific region so that it can be widely used in the near future.
