Biochipping Data Through Near Field Communication
A microchip in your hand could create no need for keys, key fob, credit cards or large wallet
Near field communication (NFC) is a short-range wireless technology that enables simple and secure communication between electronic devices. There are two frameworks at play, in close proximity about 10 cm apart. Such is considered a passive communication which means the microchip stores data that can be read by another device but cannot read data themselves.
The term biohacking is not new but it is becoming more of an above-ground concept. In Sweden, you can get a small microchip implanted into your hand that can store and passively retrieve data. The biochip can open doors, pay for meals connect to cashless apps; the Swedish national train tickets are integrated and so are gym membership passes. A touchless scanner receives passive information just like a wireless credit card reader.
