Abstract

Developing a competent and efficient product is the most challenging things in today‟s market. Near Field Communication (NFC) technology is an evolved form of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) for electronic devices which allows them to communicate with each other by simply touching or bringing them very close to each other. The Smartphone nowadays will not be only used as a camera, personal agenda, GPS; the NFC technologies increase initiatives to be used as a wallet for payment. NFC technology offers passengers who travel by public transport in a more convenience way by tap and go using Smartphone. So that, passenger can save energy, cost and time during busy hours. Develop a NFC project for passengers who travel using public transport. Design an application of program purposely for the Near Field Communication technology by using MIT apps inventor software. The designed system is analyzed in term of characteristics of NFC likely one way communication, two way communications, fast set up time, limited range and compatible with RFID module. Survey has been conducted to study the public awareness regarding NFC. As a conclusion, the best recommendation to improve the application of NFC Smartphone in public transport was proposed based on the analysis. The advantages of the NFC Smartphone application in public transport perhaps will become one of the high demand technologies in the market.
