Method, system and apparatus for automatically linking digital content to a device

摘要

A method, system and apparatus for automatically linking technical information to a near field communication (NFC) tag comprises programming and/or encoding the NFC tag with a network address of a data source containing technical information, such as maintenance and servicing information, of an object, and then adhering a NFC tag body to that object. When the object is being serviced or maintained by an end user, the end user only needs to tap the NFC tag with a NFC enabled device in order to automatically access the technical information. In some embodiments, the NFC tag body is a tag that typically would otherwise be adhered to the object.

主权项

1. An apparatus comprising:
a tag body; and a programmable NFC tag embedded within the tag body, wherein the NFC tag is encoded with a network address of a remote networked location that stores servicing and maintenance information of an object, wherein the tag body permanently displays a password that is associated with the remote networked location and that is for obtaining access to the information in response to the remote networked location receiving the password as an input.
