Applications for BlueRadios Wireless Radio Modems

 

BlueRadios® Bluetooth, Low Eenergy, ANT and WiFi modules come in Surface Mount Technology (SMT) packaging that mount directly into your products, converting them to wireless devices. BlueRadios wireless data radio modems are wireless transceivers - they can receive and transmit both data and voice simultaneously. Bluetooth for example uses frequency hopping spread spectrum (FHSS) technology with guaranteed packet delivery and encryption to deliver a robust and reliable digital data delivery transport.

 

BlueRadios wireless intelligent serial radio modems can be used in many different applications. The following table lists a few current examples:

Energy & Facilities Management

Energy management at its most basic level is simply a process used to reduce costs and energy usage. Effective energy management programs span the range from simple “home grown programs” to sophisticated consultant supported methods. Low cost and easy ways to reduce energy usage and expenses such as “turn off the lights” campaigns within a workplace or automated control systems and third party energy usage tracking programs can be effective. Facility management involves operation, maintenance and security of commercial institutional buildings.

 
Telehealth

Telehealth is one of the primary applications for Bluetooth low–energy wireless connectivity in medicine. Telehealth is a broad term used to describe telemedicine, telemonitoring and telecare. Wireless technology is making a huge impact in telemonitoring by enabling remote patient monitoring for the healthy (preventative medicine) and for those that require management of chronic diseases. Wireless technology will allow doctors to improve quality of care by providing a new method to collect more relevant data, more frequently and at a lower cost.

Industrial Environment

In an industrial environment, where cabling is frequently expensive and hard to install, cables from one point to another are easily replaced with BlueRadios device built into machinery. Today most machinery and telemetry equipment operate on a TCP/IP protocols and in such environments BlueRadios offers a product that reduces installation and cabling costs dramatically. A number of BlueRadio access devices (LAN Access Points) enable wireless connectivity throughout the factory floor, thus creating flexible points of control. Users can move around the factory with their portable computing equipment containing wireless modules, such as handheld PC's, PDA's and other portable equipment gathering data from machines. Other solutions the Company offers are Gateways and Access Points.
