Said to be the industry’s smallest cellular solution for M2M communications Sierra Wireless’ AirPrime WS6318 module provides essential M2M connectivity in a module measuring just 15 x 18 mm. As a result, OEM customers can integrate GSM connectivity into smaller and more inconspicuous products. For example, by embedding health monitoring and wireless communication capabilities into a small watch or wristband, a health application provider could extend its service to customers that would be unwilling to wear a bulky monitoring device. In this way, the AirPrime WS6318 aims to open the door to connected devices that were previously impossible and enable M2M innovators to address markets that otherwise would be out of reach.
Future Electronics will be showing the product on stand H10.
Future Electronics will be hosting several seminars over the course of the exhibition, all of which will take place in Seminar Room 2.
The seminar on 13 March, from 9:15 to 10:15 am, will cover Sierra Wireless and RF Monolithics wireless communications. Richard Carter, RF Monolithics’ director of European sales, will give a presentation.
On 14 March, two seminars will be presented in collaboration with Philips Lighting: from 9:15 to 10:15 am, Henk Rotman, OEM manager, Philips Lighting Africa, will discuss LED modules, while the 10:45 am to 12:45 pm slot will feature Future Lighting Solutions and will cover Philips Lumileds (lighting solutions and high-powered LEDs) as presented by Oriol Soteras, Philips Lumileds, Spain.
