is a rechargeable contactless smart card ticketing system for JR Central railway network which was introduced in the Chūkyō Area (Greater Nagoya) of Japan on November 25, 2006. The name is an acronym for ''Tōkai IC Card''.〔(JR Bulletin 057 ). JR Central. Accessed December 5, 2007.〕 Just like JR East's Suica or JR West's ICOCA, the card uses RFID technology developed by Sony corporation known as FeliCa. As of December 2007, 350,000 cards have been issued. In the Nagoya area, 50% of the riders, or 70% of the commuter pass holders, use the card.〔Japanese Wikipedia article of TOICA, retrieved on April 3, 2008.〕 ==Usable area== TOICA is currently accepted on JR Central lines in the following area: *Tōkaidō Main Line, between Kannami and Sekigahara * * excluded, between Ōgaki and Mino-Akasaka, Atami and Kannami, Sekigahara and Maibara *Chūō Main Line, between Nagoya and Nakatsugawa *Kansai Main Line, between Nagoya and Yokkaichi *Taketoyo Line, (the whole line) between Ōbu and Taketoyo * Gotenba Line, between Gotenba and Numazu * Minobu Line, between Fuji and Nishi-Fujinomiya * Iida Line, between Toyohashi and Toyokawa * Takayama Main Line, between Gifu and Mino-Ōta * Taita Line, (the whole line) between Mino-Ōta and Tajimi 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「TOICA」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
