Phones, Wallets & Keys
Posted on January 11th, 2012 2 comments


Typically, men at least, carry a phone (smart if they’re smart), a wallet and keys. Women – go figure
Why do men/women need to carry three items when just one, the smart phone will do? When are we going to break the mold of ingrained behavior because that’s the way our fathers and mothers did it? When are we going to start using near field capabilities of smart phones to pay for everything? When will Apps be developed and locks be modified to recognize specific patterns (think QR codes) to unlock doors, devices, turn cars on etc.? Some may ask why. I ask why not? Hank

I worked on something liked this over the past summer. It was at Alcatel-Lucent and I was working on a mobile application to allow coupons, debit, credit cards and other redemptions automagically between local areas around a city. It’s becoming a reality and is really cool.

I’m not going to lie this scares me a little. There’s so much that could go wrong: your smart phone gets stolen/lost, it could break or fail to unlock or turn something on, (I don’t know if this is possible…) a hacker could get you house, car or bank information. Theres just a lot that could go wrong. But if your a person that doesn’t own a smart phone than I guess you wouldn’t have to worry about any of that.
