Sure, force all future products to include Apple's NFC interface
chip, rather than simply put an IR emitter into the iPhone and iPad.
Typically Apple.
I don't think that this is a proprietary chip.
In recent years Apple has be at the forefront of promoting open
standards. A prime example is HTML5 versus Flash...
The article actually talks bout several classes of devices using
different industry standards like RFID.
And third parties are already offering Apps to control their
proprietary home control solutions...
