I am guessing that you have an Arduino Uno board handy. Even though most of the available libraries (for PN532) are focused primarily on Arduino Mega, I still prefer the Uno, as it’s more comfortable ...

The Arduino acts as the brains of the operation while an off-the-shelf NFC/RFID reader module is used to read the RFID tags. To add new keys to the system, [Jason] simply swipes his “master ...

Makers and developers that are looking to build NFC Arduino-based ... NFC projects and takes the form of an Arduino compatible development board with a built-in Near Field Communication module.

An Arduino Nano controls two relays which in turn can turn the car on, start it, and turn it off. Instead of adding a button for “push to start” he opted for a 13.56MHz RFID module.

Alpha Micro has begun distributing a certified Bluetooth Low Energy v4.2 and near field communication module, the Laird BL652. The compact stand-alone module is said to offer multiple interfaces and ...

There’s a new Arduino on the way. ... Primo will include Bluetooth LE (low energy), NFC, Wi-Fi, and infrared built-in — you typically need a “shield” add-on to get these features.

Despite this, Arduino is just one among many of its kind in a market that is booming after new demand; so the Bluetooth and NFC of the Primo could give Arduino an edge over its everyday competition.

Here's an instance of NFC technology that's more exciting than yet another tap-to-pay scenario. Google employee Paul Carff combined a Motorola Xoom running ICS with an Arduino microcontroller to ...

Using a one-meter-by-one-centimeter copper cable, the Android app Tricorder, and a 120-ohm resistor, Joe made a coil from all the copper wire, which then connected to the arduino via the resistor ...

Well tech tinkerer Joe Desbonnet has whipped up what he dubs "poor man's NFC" using an Arduino, some magnet wire, and any compass-equipped Android smartphone (which is almost all of them).
