• Key Concepts: 
  Near Field Communications (NFC) is a short-range wireless communication technology that enables two-way communication between two devices. It is used in SAP Connected Vehicle Solution (EHS-CVS) to enable communication between vehicles and other devices, such as smartphones, tablets, and computers. NFC allows for secure data exchange between the two devices, making it an ideal technology for vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In order to use NFC in SAP Connected Vehicle Solution (EHS-CVS), the vehicle must be equipped with an NFC reader. This reader will be able to detect and read NFC tags that are placed on other devices, such as smartphones, tablets, and computers. Once the NFC tag is detected, the reader will be able to exchange data with the device. This data can then be used to provide information about the vehicle’s location, speed, and other relevant information. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using NFC in SAP Connected Vehicle Solution (EHS-CVS), it is important to ensure that the NFC tags are placed in a secure location. This will help to prevent unauthorized access to the data being exchanged between the two devices. Additionally, it is important to ensure that the NFC reader is properly configured in order to ensure that it can detect and read the NFC tags correctly. 
  
  Related Information: 
  NFC is also used in other applications such as contactless payment systems and access control systems. Additionally, it can be used for data transfer between two devices without requiring a physical connection.
