Control Indigo with NFC phone

I want to be able to control my indigo from my NFC enabled phone. My plan is to put a NFC tag behind my keypad so i can touch the phone to it and it will set the house to unoccupied mode. What is the best way to handle the exchange from the phone to indigo? Should i set up sms control and have the phone send a sms to ichat or is there s more direct way to interface via applescript?

I think you're going to have to explain in more detail what the various parts are, what they're connected to, and what their function is.

Re: Control Indigo with NFC phone

Ok. The cliff note version is i want to be able to launch an action by tapping my NFC enabled phone (Samsung Galaxy S3) on a programmed tag.

I think i just came up with a solution as i was responding to this. I think i can program a tag to send a text message to my server using the Google voice plugin and control it that way. Let me work on it and i'll report back.
