About NFC's
NEAR FIELD COMMUNICATION (NFC) CHIPS ARE FOUND IN YOUR CREDIT CARD, YOUR WORK TAG, GYM TAG, AND SO ON.
THEY ARE HIGHLY DURABLE AND RELIABLE WAYS TO STORE INFORMATION.
YOUR SMARTPHONE CAN READ INFORMATION FROM NFC'S AND WRITE INFORMATION TO THEM (THIS IS ALSO HOW YOU PAY WITH YOUR PHONE).
WE WOULD UTILIZE THIS FEATURE TO TRIGGER YOUR PHONE TO SEND THE EMERGENCY TEXT MESSAGE.
THIS IS THE LOCATION OF THE NFC CHIP
THIS IS
THE ANTENNA
THIS IS THE BRAIN
PLEASE NOTE:
YOU COULD ALSO UTILIZE YOUR PHONE TO TRIGGER OTHER PHONE-RELATED ACTIVITIES LIKE AUTOMATICALLY CALLING EMERGENCY SERVICES.
How we will be using the NFC
-ENCODING THE PARENT'S NUMBER ONTO THE NFC-
ENCODING MEANS WRITING THE INFORMATION ONTO THE NFC CHIP. OVERALL, WE WOULD SEPARATE THIS PROCEDURE INTO TWO MAJOR STEPS:
1. INSTALLING AN APP THAT CAN WRITE TO THE NFC ON THE PARENT'S PHONE -> WRITING THE INFORMATION
2. INSTALLING AN APP THAT CAN TRIGGER THE PHONE AND READ IT ON THE CHILD'S PHONE
TO CONNECT THE NFC CHIP IN THE WHISTLE TO THE PHONE, THE WHISTLE SHOULD BE HELD AGAINST THE TOP PART OF THE BACK OF THE PHONE AS SHOWN HERE (AFTER INSTALLING THE APP).
