NFC for Dummies

This book is for people who want to get the most from their NFC enabled device. There is a compelling draw to such technology and an obvious popularity, particularly as Apple Pay and other applications gain popularity.

This book documents everything a newcomer needs to know about Near Field Communication technology, approaching it from the point of view of a smart person who is intimidated by the technology and baffled by the scant documentation and online support. All topics will be covered. As usual, humor is generously sprinkled through the text. It provides relief, but never gets in the way of important stuff. The reader will end up keeping this book close, referring to it often as they explore the features of NFC enabled devices, and how NFC is a rapidly growing technology that impacts the future of the mobile devices, and the applications used.

The book covers:
Overview of NFC
History of NFC
The technology behind NFC
IoT and Powered Chips
The Mobile Wallet
NFC: The New Mobile App
Proximity Technologies
Non-Payment Applications
The Future of NFC
