NFC: Technology empowering a cashless society!
NFC or Near Field Communication has emerged as one of the finest technology for wireless transmission for secured data. NFC is that technology which is responsible for transferring data amidst NFC-powered smart devices. When you add NFC with any physical device, it simply becomes smart, although an individual requirement for each product still differs.
Limited to about 4 inches or 10 centimetres of data transfer range, NFC tags are made up of a radio chip, nanoantenna and a storage memory for storing the crucial data while transferring. At the receiver’s side, when it comes to picking the NFC signals, EM waves generated by senders can be picked up by a receiver with much ease.
