I had been eagerly looking forward to the tech event in my community, a hub of innovation filled with students, professors, and hobbyists alike. Armed with my latest project—a smart energy system combining AI and solar technology—I was ready to make connections and share ideas.
However, as the crowd around my demo booth grew, I hit a snag: I had run out of business cards. Interested attendees eagerly asked for my contact details, but without cards, I resorted to calling them out manually. Some jotted them down, while others, frustrated or hurried, walked away.
The missed opportunities were a blow to my momentum and left me thinking about a better solution. That’s when it hit me: an NFC-enabled ID card. It already exists but can be innovated. A simple tap would instantly share my contact details and project information, keeping the focus on my innovation—not logistics.
This experience cemented this project idea: combining tech and simplicity for seamless networking.
