Near Field Communication (NFC): A short-range wireless communication technology that allows devices to exchange data over distances of less than 4 inches. It is used in mobile devices and other smart devices to enable contactless transactions, data sharing, and access control. Examples of NFC applications include mobile payments, public transit systems, and access control for buildings and vehicles.
