WASP?s collection and distribution technology combines WiFi and ANT+ to create a cost effective and efficient monitoring solution
If versatility and efficiency for group monitoring is top-of-mind, then North Pole Engineering?s WASP (WiFi ANT Sync Pod) offers the perfect solution. This revolutionary technology enables mobile, rechargeable and flexible connectivity solutions ideal for monitoring sensor information from groups of people or devices.
A WASP is a standalone bridge unit that enables ANT+ connectivity through WiFi networks to other devices or over the Internet. WASP devices are strategically placed within a desired area or attached to the user to capture real-time biometric information. The WASP device(s) join the local network and/or other specified devices on the network. They then pair with ANT+ devices within the coverage area to wirelessly communicate data through the internet to the desired monitoring location & audience.?
?WASP is a game changer for how ANT+ radio technology can be used,? said NPE?s Director of Engineering, Rick Gibbs. ?Utilizing the interoperable architecture of ANT+, a WASP enables one-to-many, many-to-one or many-to-many wireless connections in a single environment. The WASP acts as a bridge facilitating the collection of data. It is an easier method of aggregation as it doesn?t require a dedicated display device such as a watch or a phone to collect sensor data. Instead of collecting the data on your device and uploading it to an application, WASP Technology, through the use of ANT+, automatically does it for you making it the most convenient and efficient monitoring solution available.?
?ANT+ is the ideal solution for WASP because it has the lowest power battery and can have simultaneous connection to multiple devices,? added Gibbs. ?The ability of ANT+ to pair with another device automatically makes it the most efficient technology on the market; after the initial configuration of the ANT+ devices, the user no longer needs to worry about the delivery of information.?
WASP Technology enables new user experiences in a variety of environments, which primarily include four market segments:
