Technologists have never had trouble coming up with potential applications for wireless sensors. In a home security system, for example, wireless sensors would be much easier to install than sensors ...

OSLO, Norway —Chipcon AS announced the availability of the CC2431, a system-on-chip IEEE 802.15.4 low-power wireless sensor networking product that also supports ZigBee. The device integrates ...

Wireless sensor networks (WSN) consist of small battery powered electronic devices - often known as 'motes' - which gather data from built-in sensors. A WSN is self-organising allowing it to have high ...

Wireless systems are replacing wired data transmission to an increasing extent, especially in sensor networks and control applications, where the cost of installation or modifications are a ...

Ultra-wideband technology (UWB) allows for low-power wireless communication, ideal for wireless sensor nodes. The IEEE 802.15.4 standardization committee who defined the MAC and physical layers ...

There’s no shortage of networking technology designed to connect devices wirelessly, but one way is perhaps the most people (even if you don’t know it yet). That would be Zigbee, a global ...

Wireless Sensor Networks will open the floodgates to the wireless revolution. But building a practical wireless network can be a daunting challenge unless the concepts are kept simple. Nobody can ...

The Digi International ConnectPort X is a ready-made gateway designed to speed the implementation of 802.15.4 or ZigBee wireless networks. It lets modular wireless nodes connect to the Internet via ...

If you can’t beat ’em, join ’em. Today the group that develops Bluetooth technology said it would join with rival short-range wireless technology from Nokia known as Wibree to develop all manner of ...

In the world of wireless communications, the name ZigBee is becoming as readily recognised as Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. Like those technologies, ZigBee defines a short-range wireless networking capability ...
