Mozilla, in collaboration with its partners at Deutsche Telekom Innovation Labs (centers in Silicon Valley and Berlin) and T-Mobile Poland, developed the design and implementation of Firefox OS's NFC infrastructure to enable several applications including mobile payments, transportation services, door access and media sharing. The mobile wallet demo covering 'MasterCard(R) Contactless' technology together with few non-payment functionalities will be showcased in "FoxDen" talks.
