Near Field Communication in the Real World: Turning the NFC Promise Into Profitable, Everyday Applications

Overview Now that international standards have been agreed and published for Near Field Communication (NFC), the market is set for widespread adoption of the technology in a whole range of applications. Innovision sees three key areas of application for NFC: service initiation, where the technology is used to 'unlock' another service (such as opening another communication link for data transfer); peer-to-peer, where NFC is used to enable communication between two devices; and payment & ticketing, where NFC will build on the emerging smart ticketing and electronic payment infrastructures. This paper sets out Innovision's view of emerging NFC applications, technology and markets, and describes how the company's existing technology and development expertise is being adapted to help ensure successful take-up of the technology.
