Open authentication protocols have become a standard solution to allow interfacing of third-party applications and websites. This paper presents a rationale for the use of secure memory cards with NFC-enabled service. A software application prototype is presented to show how a secure memory card can provide a portable authentication module to access web services. The prototype shows that it is possible...
Self-reporting patient data are valuable feedback for medical treatment and care process, as well as for clinical trial studies and support of medical treatment. However, traditional paper-based medical patient longitudinal surveys or questionnaires for health and well-being status information are time- and cost-consuming, and may suffer from low patient compliance. Consequently, an NFC-based electronic...
Mobile interactions with public displays are often indirect and not very convenient for multiple users at the same time. In this paper we use the physical, touch-based interaction with Near Field Communication (NFC) to investigate direct mobile interactions with public displays for multiple users. For that purpose, we adopt the Whack-a-Mole game for dynamic NFC-displays, which combine the physical...
Near Field Communication (NFC) has become widely available on smart phones. It helps users to intuitively establish communication between local devices. Accessing devices such as public terminals raises several security concerns in terms of confidentiality and trust. To overcome this issue, NFC can be used to leverage the trusted-computing protocol of remote attestation. In this paper, we propose...
Inherent obstacles in current mobile applications are the limited input and output capabilities of mobile phones. In many ways, e.g. in terms of display capabilities and processing power, todaypsilas mobile phones are quite versatile and provide opportunity for a multitude of new applications. Conversely, mobile phones will always be somewhat limited by certain form factors that are intrinsic to their...
In this publication several near field communication (NFC) based sensor demonstrations and related measurements are discussed. These include basic temperature sensor applications and some more complex scenarios with external sensors and actuators. The reader device can be a commercial NFC enabled mobile phone or specially developed hardware. Based on the experience gathered with demonstrations and...
The deployment of mobile and ubiquitous computing in smart objects introduces the concept of an Internet of things which will offer new scenarios for learning processes. This paper presents this concept in relation with some other new alternatives of spaces for learning. A basic architecture for interaction is proposed and a set of prototypes that we have developed are also explained as part of an...
