IC enables batteryless RF communication
Panasonic Automotive & Industrial Systems Europe's range of NFC tags has expanded with the introduction of a new IC for batteryless RF communication which is compliant with JISX6319-4 (212kbps/424kbps), ISO/IEC14443 TypeA (106kbps), and ISO/IEC14443 TypeB (106kbps/212kbps/424kbps) 13.56-MHz contactless IC card standards and therefore guarantees global interoperability.
RFID sensors: Filling a real need or hoping for the best?
RFID is booming - it now accounts for the largest number of silicon Integrated Circuits (ICs) made of one particular type. But in addition to over 20% growth over the next few years, there is much more to come. According to IDTechEx, RFID is moving beyond wireless identification alone to wireless sensing of parameters such as temperature, humidity and much more.
Mobile ID turns smartphone into connected ID card
Notify the council of your new address, pick up your rental car, car share, or vote by smartphone app? Increasing connectivity enables a wide range of new and useful online services to be accessed anytime from anywhere. The success of these services, however, depends on secured digital identities and authentication processes for mobile devices. These solutions supplement proven electronic identification (eID) documents and offer users faster and ...

Collaboration ensures seamless smart lighting technology
A collaboration has been announced between Casambi and EnOcean. EnOcean has newly developed a batteryless Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) switch module with Near Field Communication (NFC) that expands its range of energy-harvesting wireless solutions for the Internet of Things (IoT).
Bluetooth suits rapid enterprise IoT development
Alpha Micro has begun distributing a secure, certified Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) v4.2 and Near Field Communication (NFC) module, the Laird BL652. The module is compact, energy-efficient and powerful. This tiny footprint stand-alone module offers multiple interfaces and an easy-to-use application development environment for easy integration of secure connectivity into EioT devices without impacting power budgets or space limitations.
New contactless reader introduced as industry progresses
It has been announced that ID TECH has released a new NFC/Contactless EMV reader, the ViVOpay Kiosk III SRED.As Contactless/NFC payments rapidly gain traction, ID TECH continues to expand its NFC reader line by introducing the industry’s first SRED contactless-only module: Kiosk III SRED.
Better user interfaces using Bluetooth low energy
Different industries and application areas make use of standalone devices, devices that without the need for interactions are used to control local equipment.One example of this is a heating control system hidden in the basement of a building, quietly doing its work without any need for interaction with the device.
