Re: [web-nfc] NFC for access management aka Hotels rooms ? (#356)

> * [ ]  Replacing room keys : hotel room keys could be transmitted directly to the guests’ smartphones, replacing magnetic strip cards, so automatic checking, bypassing the front-desk. I will not be surprised if some amount of cryptography is involved in this mobile NFC access control systems to defeat cloning. We need to check which underlying protocols are mostly used and if that makes sense for our web-nfc. [Ultralight](https://www.nxp.com/products/rfid-nfc/mifare-hf/mifare-ultralight:MC_53452), [Mifare DESFire](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIFARE#MIFARE_DESFire) or even Mifare Classic are most likely to be used but I am not sure about the protocols used by key companies like Assa Abloy.

Hi @riju , is this feature available now in Chrome browser to transmit digital key to door locks to unlock it? Waiting for your reply.
