SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING CONTACTLESS CONTROL OF HARDWARE

Abstract:

A system and method for providing contactless control of hardware that includes receiving an image of a digitally encrypted code that is associated with the hardware and presenting a contactless control panel user interface on a portable device that includes a graphical representation of at least one physical control panel of the hardware. The system and method also include communicating the at least one user input provided upon the contactless control panel user interface to the hardware through near field communication (NFC communication) between the portable device and the hardware. The system and method further include controlling the hardware to execute at least one function based on the at least one user input received by the hardware through the NFC communication.
