Congratulations to BigG for Using web-NFC to help catch BAT’s (i.e. Buses & Trains) and Dude, where’s my keypad? ! You are the grand prize winner RFID or NFC Discovery Kit and you win a $200 shopping cart.
Congratulations to dougw for Long Range Passive RFID, misaz for Custom NFC Tags and JWx for NFC powered high voltage generator / NFC field detector with neon lamp . You are the first place winners and a $100 shopping cart.
The idea was to build projects that use NFC or RFID for applications such as access control, asset tracking, making contactless payments, and more. Both RFID and NFC use radio waves to communicate. RFID systems have an RFID tag or smart label, an RFID reader, and an antenna. The RFID tag uses an integrated circuit and an antenna, which to transmit data to an RFID reader. Examples of projects you could do include RFID door locks, using an RFID tag to build a pet tracking device, embedding RFID in a wristband or ring for attendance monitoring at events, an NFC payment system to allow purchases from a smart phone, an RFID device you can use to prevent theft such as in clothing or valuable items, integrate RFID with an everyday item to share information with social media, and more. Applications for RFID include theft prevention of automobiles, collecting tolls without stopping, traffic management, building access control, automated parking, dispensing goods, tracking library books, and tracking a wealth of assets in supply chain management. NFC also has many exciting applications such as smart cards, e-wallets, smart-ticketing, moderating health and medical conditions, and keyless access.
With the ubiquity of smart phones in today's world we were interested in what projects you would come up with for this challenge. We kicked things off with ready-to-use tags for NFC/RFID and an evaluation board. Anyone was free to use whatever components they wanted but the hope was the giveaway would spark your creativity!
