Pesticide overuse poses significant risks to human health and environmental integrity. Addressing the limitations of existing approaches, which struggle with the diversity of pesticide compounds, portability issues, and environmental sensitivity, this ...

Securely exchanging contact information is essential for establishing trustworthy communication channels that facilitate effective online collaboration. However, current methods are neither user-friendly nor scalable for large groups of users. In ...

Public displays are becoming ubiquitous in urban spaces but face challenges such as display blindness, interaction blindness, and attention competition. As mobile devices continue to evolve, people increasingly rely on smartphones as their primary means ...

Passports are part of critical infrastructure for a very long time. They also have been pieces of automatically processable information devices, more recently through the ISO/IEC 14443 (Near-Field Communication – NFC) protocol. For obvious reasons, it is ...

We present a computation fabrication workflow for generating and fabricating flexible printed circuit board (FPCB) designs of identifiable building blocks based on near-field communication (NFC) for rapid assembly. This workflow streamlines production ...

Plugging a cable or peripheral into a device is an integral aspect of daily use of computing devices for most users. Yet, in low-light or constrained-visibility conditions the simple act of finding the receptacle to connect a cable to can be challenging ...

In this paper, we propose NFCStack, which is a physical building block system that supports stacking and frictionless interaction and is based on near-field communication (NFC). This system consists of a portable station that can support and resolve ...

We present the design and prototype of the DecoLeaves shirt, a battery-free wraparound style shirt that gives the autonomy to its wearer for modifying her appearance by moving a smartphone secretly in the shirt’s pocket. It is designed to express ...

Barcodes and NFC have become the de facto standards in the field of automatic identification and data capture. These standards have been widely adopted for many applications, such as mobile payments, advertisements, social sharing, admission control, and ...

This paper builds a Near-field Communication (NFC) based localization system that allows ordinary surfaces to locate surrounding objects with high accuracy in the near-field. While there is rich prior work on device-free localization using far-field ...

We present Project Tasca, a pocket-based textile sensor that detects user input and recognizes everyday objects that a user carries in the pockets of a pair of pants (e.g., keys, coins, electronic devices, or plastic items). By creating a new fabric-...

This paper presents NFCSense, a data-defined rich-ID motion sensing technique for fluent tangible interaction design by using commodity near-field communication (NFC) tags and a single NFC tag reader. An NFC reader can reliably recognize the presence ...

The use of Near Field Communication (NFC) technology in tourism has provided tourists with new opportunities. NFC technology ensures cost savings for companies, favorably influences the process of forming a tourist experience, promotes the promotion and ...

There has been a significant increase in the use of mobile devices and their possibilities for interaction. Currently several actions in people's surrounds, both face-to-face and in virtual spaces can be performed by using these devices. Some examples ...

Various barriers prevent blind and visually impaired people accessing the rich multisensory experiences available at heritage centres. These barriers include large bodies of text and items in glass cases, which are difficult to see. Feedback from the ...

Current UHF RFID systems suffer from two long-standing problems: 1) miss-reading non-line-of-sight or misoriented tags and 2) cross-reading undesired, distant tags due to multi-path reflections. This paper proposes a novel system, NFC+, to overcome the ...

Letters of Credit (Letter-of-Credit) frauds are deceptive attempts against financial institutions, primarily by providing availing false/falsify documentation as a proof of shipment of goods when, either, inferior goods were shipped, or no delivery was ...

Asset management is essential since it helps an organization track and manage its assets using a systemized approach. Asset management software has been adopted in many organizations these days, but there are some problems with the procedures which lead ...

Many museums exclude visually impaired people by offering only visual presentations of exhibition pieces. To improve the experience of the botanical garden in Würzburg for visually impaired people, we conducted a human centered design process with blind ...

Recently, "Smart tourism" has appeared as a new term to describe the application of the technological advancements that rely on sensors, big data processing technique, open data, open API, new way of connecting and exchanging between humans and machines ...
