<p>The Android Smart Card Emulator allows the emulation of a contact-less smart card.
The emulator uses Android’s <abbr title="host card emulation">HCE</abbr> to fetch APDUs from a contact-less reader.
The app allows to process the Command APDUs either by delegating them to a
remote virtual smart card or by a built-in Java Card simulator. The response
APDUs are then returned to the smart card reader. Together with
<a class="reference internal" href="../TCardEmulator/README.html#tcardemulator"><span class="std std-ref">Tizen Smart Card Emulator</span></a> it is also possible to use a smartwatch as communication
device instead of the phone.</p>
<p>With the built-in Java Card runtime of <a class="reference external" href="http://www.jcardsim.org/">jCardSim</a> <a class="footnote-reference brackets" href="#id4" id="id5">1</a> the app includes the following
Applets:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p><a class="reference external" href="https://developers.yubico.com/ykneo-openpgp/">OpenPGP Applet</a> <a class="footnote-reference brackets" href="#id6" id="id7">2</a> (application identifier <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">D2760001240102000000000000010000</span></code>)</p></li>
<li><p><a class="reference external" href="https://developers.yubico.com/ykneo-oath/">OATH Applet</a> <a class="footnote-reference brackets" href="#id8" id="id9">3</a> (application identifier <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">A000000527210101</span></code>)</p></li>
<li><p><a class="reference external" href="http://www.pwendland.net/IsoApplet/">ISO Applet</a> <a class="footnote-reference brackets" href="#id10" id="id11">4</a> (application identifier <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">F276A288BCFBA69D34F31001</span></code>)</p></li>
<li><p><a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/vletoux/GidsApplet">GIDS Applet</a> <a class="footnote-reference brackets" href="#id12" id="id13">5</a> (application identifier <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">A000000397425446590201</span></code>)</p></li>
</ul>
<p>The remote interface can be used together with the <a class="reference internal" href="../virtualsmartcard/README.html#vicc"><span class="std std-ref">Virtual Smart Card</span></a>, which allows
emulating the following cards:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p>Generic ISO-7816 smart card</p></li>
<li><p>German electronic identity card (nPA)</p></li>
<li><p>Electronic passport</p></li>
</ul>
<p>The remote interface can also be used together with the <a class="reference internal" href="../pcsc-relay/README.html#pcsc-relay"><span class="std std-ref">PC/SC Relay</span></a>,
which allows emulating a contactless card from an existing contact-based card
(by relaying the commands from PC/SC to the phone).</p>
<p>You may also attach your own simulation to the remote interface by implementing
a simple interface through a socket communication.</p>

</div><p>The Android Smart Card Emulator has the following dependencies:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p>NFC hardware built into the smartphone for <abbr title="host card emulation">HCE</abbr></p></li>
<li><p>Android 4.4 “KitKat” (or newer) or CyanogenMod 11 (or newer)</p></li>
<li><p>permissions for a data connection (communication with Virtual Smart Card) and
for using NFC (communication to the reader); scanning the configuration via
QR code requires permission to access the camera</p></li>
<li><p>Virtual Smart Card <a class="reference internal" href="../virtualsmartcard/README.html#vicc-install"><span class="std std-ref">installed on the host computer</span></a> for
using the remote interface</p></li>
</ul>
<p>Please note that the currently emulated applets are verifying the PIN by
transmitting it without any protection between card and terminal. You may want
to have a look at <a class="reference external" href="http://sar.informatik.hu-berlin.de/research/publications/SAR-PR-2014-08/SAR-PR-2014-08_.pdf">Erik Nellesson’s</a>
