NFC, card emulation ( MiFare, FeliCa... )

Question

Hi,

I'd like to emulate an access card with my Windows Phone 8. Is there any support to the NFC card emulation in Windows Phone 8.0 SDK?

Thanks for your help!

Answer 1

See Proximity for Windows Phone 8 for a complete overview of what's available with the API.

Answer 2

Thanks for your help, I have read the overview but Proximity API doesn't support card emulation! Any other idea?

Answer 3

What you are after is software-based card emulation. Currently this isn't possible, the only card emulation this is available is using the Wallet APIs in conjunction with a SIM-card with a secure element supplied by a Telco. This SIM can have loaded onto it applets that would allow for card emulation via the Wallet APIs.

Are there any NFC SIM available for Windows Phone 8? Can we use UICC to test emulation on Windows Phone 8?
