Nokia Research Center is trying bring in the best technologies to the Nokia products. Their main fields include materials science, battery research and radio technology.
The research center currently released a new video called “Explore and Share.” I guess it has to do with the NFC file transfer. This means that the file transfer from your friend’s smartphone to yours can be done much easier and faster. The feature used to be available for the Nokia customers, but the transfer was rather slow and you could transfer only 512 MB.
To fight this NFC was using additional features like Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. This allows the smartphone of the new age to transfer files shot by the powerful cameras. The videos are usually even “heavier,” especially if they are shot in 1080p capturing.
The second part of the video demonstrates “Express Tags.” Those are similar to NFC tags, but they give a chance for 100 Mbps data transfer and store up to 1 GB of data. This will help the owners of the smartphone to transfer 1 GB of data in 10 seconds, which is much faster than with 3G transfer. The only disadvantage of the features is that it will require a special radio inside like Bluetooth and Wi-Fi and will need a special storage chip. This might mean the price of the feature-based devices will be slightly higher.
