EETimes Europe reports that geolocation will soon be a commodity among machines
Leading industry magazine EETimes Europe has reported that geolocation will soon be a commodity among machines. In a special feature devoted to M2M applications in its April 2011 issue, EETimes focussed on DecaWave ScenSor, and how UWB technology is being harnessed by partner firms AeroScout and MicroStrain. “Just looking at power consumption which is often a limiting factor for battery based sensor networks, our next-generation of devices based on the ScenSor radio could operate for ten times longer than with the current ZigBee solutions we use at the moment” Chris Townsend vice president of MicroStrain says in the article.
