High-performance solution by Infineon increases customer satisfaction
Consumers in densely populated areas desire faster transaction speeds and greater convenience. This has led to a rising trend in payments through contactless-card and touch-and-go mobile technology. Consumers can get from point A to B with nothing more than a quick tap of their mobile phone -- a convenience most rush-hour commuters appreciate. Across the globe, transport operators not only strive to make commuters' daily lives more convenient but also desire to implement standardized contactless ticketing solutions that will reduce overall costs.
More room for designers to think outside the box
Infineon solution has the fastest security controller and a high-performance NFC which allows device manufacturers to realize smaller designs, leaving more room for designers to think outside the box and make the overall system simpler and cheaper for manufacturers while Infineon's technology leadership in hardware-based solutions establish a strong foundation for reliable and secured cellular connectivity and mobile applications.
