NACCU’s Talking Campus ID Tech: Contactless

Andrew Hudson   ||   Sep 21, 2018  ||   , ,

The latest installment in NACCU’s Talking Campus ID Tech series is devoted to advanced card technologies, including contactless, NFC and mobile. Hear from Barton Lawyer, assistant director of IT at Duke University, as he discusses a wide array of modern card technologies, along with their inherent benefits to campuses and student alike.

In the video, Lawyer provides a detailed explanation of the difference between prox and contactless, the technology underpinning NFC, and other credential form factors like wearables, and how these technologies can be implemented on your campus. Lawyer also talks about Duke University's move to contactless credentials.

The campus identification and transaction industry’s professional association, NACCU, takes great pride in its ability to educate members and the entire higher education community. That’s the idea behind the association’s “Talking Campus ID Tech” video series.

The video series details key campus identification technologies and features subject matter experts from the NACCU member community talking about key topics like this installment dedicated to barcodes.

The videos are presented by NACCU and produced by NACCU and CR80News. The full series can be viewed at NACCU.org.
