How does NFC work on Android?

Near Field Communication (NFC) is a set of short-range wireless technologies, typically requiring a distance of 4cm or less to initiate a connection. NFC allows you to share small payloads of data between an NFC tag and an Android-powered device, or between two Android-powered devices. Tags can range in complexity.

I found an answer,the ACS now provides android library and sample application for their readers.You can find library here and some information and video demo of android supported readers is here.

The only problem is that ACS android library supports only Android 3.1 and above. hope it will help you.

If you still have question feel free to ask..
