"Near Field Communication (NFC) is perhaps one of the most impressive technologies on which we are going to heavily rely in future"
NFC brings to us the possibilities of :
* making payments using cellphones or other NFC lashed gadgets just like we do using our credit/debit cards rather more seamlessly. So it would be like an e-wallet in your pocket.
* on parking permits.
* for downloading or accessing data by bringing NFC lashed device in proximity of a NFC readable information.
* buying and receiving railway/bus tickets and receiving them on your NFC-cellphones.
* interacting with posters, magazines etc.
* ...........and many more; the list is quite long.
The beauty of this technology would not just help our pocket get rid of the extra weights of various credit/debit/identity cards and tags but would also provide extra security and save a lot of time.
NFC is a short range radio technology. It operates at 13.6 MHz frequency and about 424 kbps data transfer rate. Establishing NFC connection is real fuss-free, just bring two NFC-compatible devices in close proximity and its done. NFC is almost similar to RFID technology rather a more advanced and developed version of it. Like RFID, NFC also uses inductive coupling for data transfer but unlike RFID, NFC supports two way communication and that makes it more secured and efficient.
The technology is still being nurtured and is under trial in some of the countries but its not too far when we could seek its services.
There have been lot of rumors about Apple introducing NFC in its next generation iphone. Well I would hope that these rumors shape in reality and we could soon meet some of the gadgets embedded with NFC technology.
"I guess everyone of us would love to have an e-wallet in our pockets because we hardly forget to carry our cellphones with us every time we go out. "
