This guide, "Beginning Nfc: Near Field Communication with Arduino, Android, and Phonegap," published by O'Reilly Media on January 14, 2014, is authored by Tom Igoe, Don Coleman, and Brian Jepson. It serves as a comprehensive resource for learning Near Field Communication (NFC) and developing applications utilizing this technology. The book covers key technologies such as NFC, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), and the NFC Data Exchange Format (NDEF), and is intended for individuals looking to build practical NFC-enabled projects.
This manual provides detailed instructions and examples for working with NFC across various platforms, including Android, Arduino, Embedded Linux (with examples like Raspberry Pi and BeagleBone), PhoneGap, and Node.js. It outlines how to read NFC tags, build tag-writer applications, and implement peer-to-peer communication between devices. The content also explores practical applications, such as controlling home devices and creating hotel registration systems, requiring knowledge of HTML and JavaScript for development.
Jump into the world of Near Field Communications (NFC), the fast-growing technology that lets devices in close proximity exchange data, using radio signals. With lots of examples, sample code, exercises, and step-by-step projects, this hands-on guide shows you how to build NFC applications for Android, the Arduino microcontroller, and embedded Linux devices.
You’ll learn how to write apps using the NFC Data Exchange Format (NDEF) in PhoneGap, Arduino, and node.js that help devices read messages from passive NFC tags and exchange data with other NFC-enabled devices. If you know HTML and JavaScript, you’re ready to start with NFC.
- Dig into NFC’s architecture, and learn how it’s related to RFID
- Write sample apps for Android with PhoneGap and its NFC plugin
- Dive into NDEF: examine existing tag-writer apps and build your own
- Listen for and filter NDEF messages, using PhoneGap event listeners
- Build a full Android app to control lights and music in your home
- Create a hotel registration app with Arduino, from check-in to door lock
- Write peer-to-peer NFC messages between two Android devices
- Explore embedded Linux applications, using examples on Raspberry Pi and BeagleBone
