NFC & RFID
Near Field Communication(NFC) and Radio Frequency Identification(RFID) are wireless technologies used in IoT applications for tracking, identification and data exchange. The RFID works through electromagnetic fields for identification of objects/ individuals in long range while NFC is a family of RFID, which will ensure close-range 2-way communication during secure transaction and data sharing purposes.
Our Experience with NFC & RFID in IoT Projects
We devised wearable devices for US prisoners to track their vital health parameters, such as heart rate, acceleration, and gyroscopic data. These wearable features RFID tags, with readers placed at the door thresholds, allowing continuous tracking of inmates’ health while ensuring monitoring at specific locations. Thus, this innovative IoT healthcare solution has prevented custody deaths.
