ANTplus (ANT+) radio in smart phone will control machines

Last week I proposed to one of my project customers to use an ANTplus (ANT+) powered smart phone as remote control for their machines. As we all know, there is no Bluetooth LE available. The other reason was that the costs for qualification with ANTplus are much lower than with Bluetooth LE. Even if we […]

ANT the coin cell battery powered WSN (wireless sensor network) – Free webinar

ANT is a low-power wireless networking protocol. It has the same audience like Bluetooth Low Energy. In contrast to Bluetooth LE the ANT protocol allows full mesh network topology. Furtermore it is already widespread in sports and healthcare. The ANT alliance has more than 300 members (e.g. Adidas, Garmin or Timex). The member no. 300 was the manufacturer of phones, Sony Ericsson.

MP45DT01: Digital microphone for people tracker, antitheft systems and wireless video cameras

Digital microphone to deliver crystal-clear audio and to eliminate the “GSM noise” in your M2M application

The MP45DT01 MEMS, digital-output microphone enables advancements in sound quality by providing omni-directional sensitivity to detect and filter out background noise. Sound quality can be further improved by incorporating multiple microphones in one device.
