Currently I am writing an essay on Near Field Communication (NFC) for Com320 - Computer Networks. I have just come across an interesting video which shows how NFC can be used to help elderly people. The video explains the benefits of using this technology to assist elderly people ordering their meal on wheels, along with other stuff such as ring their children. The only issue I have with this video is that a lot of elderly people do not know how to use recent technology such as mobile phones, or struggle to use them. So therefore i am not totally convinced on the idea the video is trying to sell however I can see how in the future it may become a more common factor in our lives.
Here is the link to the video.
