Applications

for Wireless Radio Modems

BlueRadios Bluetooth modular Surface Mount Technology (SMT) devices mount directly into your products, converting them into Bluetooth-enabled wireless devices. BlueRadios wireless data radio modems are wireless transceivers - they can receive and transmit both data and voice simultaneously. Bluetooth® uses frequency hopping spread spectrum 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:

Industrial Products Machine-to-machine (M2M) Asset tracking Primary sensing elements Energy and facility management Automated meter reading (AMR)	Medical Devices Lab equipment Medication monitoring Surgical devices Home health products Clinical devices	Consumer Products Computer peripherals Handheld's Palmtops Laptops Intercom Systems
Transportation Shipment tracking Tractor/trailer communication Remote printing of shipping labels Hands free control Asset management	Military/Government Security systems First responder devices Remote controlled weaponry Data collection devices Video surveillance	SCADA Sensors PLC's RTU's Data acquisition Telemetry

An application example is a customer device, accessing the Internet through a Bluetooth®-enabled mobile phone as shown below:

Security: Surveillance equipment, tracking, security guard gateway control, passage control and intruder alarms are different security applications for which the Blue Radios intelligent serial interface is well suited. The Bluetooth specification provides robust and secure transmissions with both encryption and frequency hopping. There are no transmission wires that can be damaged or intentionally cut. Without cabling, it is just as easy to create a temporary security solution as a permanent.

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 Blue Radios device built into machinery. Today most machinery and telemetry equipment operate on a TCP/IP protocols and in such environments Blue Radios offers a product that reduces installation and cabling costs dramatically. A number of Blue Radio 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 Bluetooth chips, such as handheld PC's, PDA's and other portable equipment gathering data from machines. Other solutions the Company offers is Bluetooth repeaters.
