iPhone with RFID technology?

Filed in archive Implementation on July 8, 2009

You can never imagine talks of latest iPhone without a hint of rumors being included to it. To continue with the tradition McRumors has been talking about surfacing of three new Apple patent applications with host of new features being added to the next gen iPhone.

So let me reveal to you some of the exciting features which could find a place in your favorite iPhone.

In the future you might see your very own RFID technology being implanted in your iPhone. RFID reader could find a place in the actual display panel of the device enabling to read RFID tags which are becoming a common phenomenon nowadays. This would mean you could see the phone being used beyond the consumer domain also.

Besides this there are also talks about adaptation of grid of piezoelectronic actuators which would lead to a tactile touch screen. This implies iPhone users will be able to feel virtual buttons and though it may not be the first phone to adapt it but this feature is impending in a phone of such class.

Next there seems to be plans about enhancing security of the iPhone by including fingerprints of the phone user as an input method which means every part of the phone may not be accessible for everyone.

What all I can say is that I am thoroughly excited at the moment and hope the features are included in the iPhone pretty soon.
