Ushering in a radical evolution of the user and fan experience, Nike and the NBA have unveiled the Nike NBA Connected Jersey. Using new NikeConnect technology, each adult-sized Nike NBA Connected Jersey will have an embedded NFC (near-field communication) chip. In June, Apple announced that the iPhone’s NFC chip could now be used on tags that are outside the company’s in-house payment system, and the Nike NBA Connected Jersey is one of the first products to take advantage of that update.
