Samsung will drop plastic ID cards for NFC equipped smartphones at its headquarters

Samsung will drop plastic ID cards for NFC equipped smartphones at its headquarters

NFC still isn't a ‘mature' technology, if you use the metric of ubiquity. It's not everywhere yet, despite Nokia recently bragging that it has been using NFC for years. But it's getting there. Slowly, true, but it is.
The latest example of NFC stepping more and more into the mainstream comes from South Korea, and from Samsung specifically. The electronics giant is going to replace plastic ID cards at its headquarters in Suwon with identification (and access permission) based on NFC-enabled smartphones.
