The weekly report discusses the group's progress in learning about technologies related to data transfer, memory, and connection for their project. Specifically, the report focuses on Near Field Communication (NFC) technology, explaining its uses and benefits. NFC allows contactless data transfer between devices when they are brought close together, and can be used for applications like contactless payments, data sharing, and retrieving information from smart tags. The report notes that while NFC has many benefits and uses, implementing it fully requires more development and support technologies. Going forward, the group will continue learning about data transfer and sharing technologies to support their project.

Weekly Progress
For this week, we can’t catch the word or the new idea for search technology that we will do with
our project. But now we need to learn 3 topic of technology that are “transfer , memory and connection”.
We search a lot of information and share with our group such as Bluetooth , Wifi etc. and I’m very interesting
in “NFC”. What is NFC? I have know NFC since 3 month ago but don’t know all data and real benefit of NFC.
NFC( Near Field Communication) isn’t new. It used for many years and has a lot of useful. It’s
difference from RFID a little. Both NFC and RFID are used to transfer the data inside the devices. But NFC can
use in many function more than RFID. There are three parts for NFC :
1) Card Emulation Mode [ It’s used as same as contactsless smart card that mean using for transaction
example visa card.] ; 2) Peer to Peer Mode [It can transfer the data between two NFC devices as same as
bluetooth but it need to touch because it can transfer less than RFID in maximum but easy to transfer.It
doesn’t need to connect pair of devices.] ; 3) Reader/Writer Mode [It’s used to read and write as same
asContactless smart card(tag). It can read tag from smartposter etc.]

“benefits of NFC”
Engineering Analysis
Strong Point
- It has a lot of benefits for this technology
- In the future, I think we will use it more, be developed and give convenience to human.
Week Point
- It is hard to do ourselves in the real time because we need more intelligence and need more
things to support. But for me, I think this is a good case study for me to learn because only a
few people are interested and know this.
Next Week Job
I will learn more technologies about transfer and data to shared and support my group.
