What is NFC?
NFC, UnTouch Tags, Tags
Near Field Communication (NFC for short) is a standard for transmitting data by radio over short distances. The transmission takes place in HF (13.56 MHz). This standard describes a wireless communication technology that enables a connection between an NFC-compatible device (e.g. UnTouch Phone) and an NFC tag, such as the UnTouch Tool and Person Tags. In practice, the device and tag must be close to one another.
What are NFC tags?

An NFC tag is a tiny chip, often encased in plastic, which is usually embedded in the center of an antenna (thin conductor track in the form of a flat coil). Depending on the material, NFC tags are extremely durable. The integrated chip contains a read-write memory with a maximum data transfer rate of 424 KBits/s.
Can the NFC tags also be used on metallic surfaces?

How does NFC work on smartphones?
NFC Handy, Smartphone, UnTouch Phone
NFC-capable smartphones, such as our UnTouch Phones, have an active NFC transmitter and an antenna that is either integrated in the housing cover or in the battery. This active NFC transmitter creates an electromagnetic field. If an NFC tag comes into this field, the NFC tag is activated via the NFC antenna and sends its information to the smartphone.

If a SIM card with internet connection is inserted, you can use the UnTouch app to query information such as the borrower, upcoming maintenance and reservations of a tool.
Are the current locations of my machines being displayed when using the UnTouch Tool Tags?
location, GPS, localisation, map
The UnTouch Tool Tags do not have a GPS location function, as the permanent tracking of tools via GPS requires the use of SIM cards and larger battery-operated tag modules. Since this means a high cost and maintenance effort, we have developed an indirect location determination. For this purpose, the locations and the geographic coordinates of the UnTouch Phone specified when the tool is issued are used when the UnTouch Tool Tag is recorded and then output on a map in UnTouch Web. If there are several tools in one place, they are put together in list form to form one location.

We are in regular contact with users and associations to further develop UnTouch.

Good ideas are always welcome!
