infographic: how NFC can change our world

NFC has been the next big thing for some time now. But now it seems we're finally getting somewhere. There has been progress with rollout of payment terminals, and the major handset vendors have NFC in their roadmap. But if you think NFC is limited to making small, cashless payments, think again. This liberating technology could transform many day-to-day processes including ticketing, secure entry and authentication.

We've created this infographic on NFC applications to introduce you to some of our ideas. Please free to republish it on your blog, just make sure you credit us!
