Abstract :
Near Field Communication (NFC) enables fast interactive mobile services as it allows two mobile devices to quickly and securely exchange information when they are within touching range. However, NFC-enabled phones are virtually absent on the market today, which impedes the break-through of these useful services. This paper presents the Mobile Touch Technology, which utilizes the mobile phone´s microphone plus its connectivity capabilities to effectively emulate NFC with mobile phones that are already widely available on the market.
