The changing face of NFC

By 2020, 40 billion devices will be connected to the Internet of Things (IoT). Consumers are demanding experiences that are more intelligent. With near-field communication (NFC), products are smarter, more interactive and more traceable — they can talk to each other and to smart devices — and that means a more trustworthy world for consumers, creators, brands and businesses. With NFC technology now also supported by the latest generation of Apple iOS 11, 12, and 13-enabled devices (in addition to Android), high-performance NFC inlays and tags are rapidly fulfilling a vast variety of use cases, including consumer electronics, smart home, transit, supply chain management, fashion, retail, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, gaming and toys.
