FeliCa Developer Akira Iga Wins at Innovator Awards
Yuri Kageyama reports for the AP on Akira Iga, a Sony executive responsible for the FeliCa technology used for mobile payments.
Iga developed a technology, called FeliCa, which uses a tiny integrated computer chip in plastic cards that can communicate as quickly as fractions of a second so that people can simply slap their cards on a panel to gain entry at train station stalls or avoid the hassle of coins at cash registers.
