Follow on Google News | ACS Awarded NFC Forum Certification for ACR1252UACS has received the NFC Forum Certification for its ACR1252U.
The ACR1252U is a next-generation USB NFC reader and one of the first NFC Forum-certified readers in the industry. This contactless reader builds on 13.56 MHz and ISO14443 contactless technologies, which are among the most widely adhered to standards in the industry. Being authorized to use the NFC Forum Certification Mark proves that the ACR1252U can truly perform the three NFC modes: card emulation, reader and peer-to-peer (P2P). The ACR1252U performs these by mimicking an NFC card/tag, reading an NFC card/tag and interacting with other NFC mobile phones/devices, respectively. Together, these technical features mean that the ACR1252U is good not only for traditional network security and loyalty applications, but also for some interesting and creative NFC applications, such as smart posters, mobile payments, and file exchange with other NFC devices. The NFC Forum Certification is also an industry gold standard of compliance that guarantees a level of interoperability with other NFC devices. Given the foreseen upsurge of NFC devices and applications, this interoperability makes devices more versatile and widens options for users. “The NFC Forum certification was awarded to ACR1252U after a series of laboratory tests. It is another ACS milestone and a proof of our R&D efforts devoted to NFC technology,” Engineering samples of the ACR1252U will be available at the end of 2013.
