In-building locationing and tracking is really heating up, and Motorola’s MPact platform, combining Wi-Fi with Bluetooth Low Energy beacons, is an interesting approach for retailers – and perhaps beyond.
I attended the IEEE’s recent Rock Stars of Mobile Cloud event in Boston. Here are few interesting observations from a very diverse set of presenters.
A survey we’ve been conducting at Network World’s Wireless Infrastructure 2014 events confirms some key predictions on how organizations are deploying 802.11ac – but with a few surprises as well.
I recently wrote about one idea for dealing with the credit-card-fraud nightmare. Startup Ondot Systems has their own solution in production today – and a seasoned and creative management team to back it up.
In which Craig and Mike get closer to understanding how a Wi-Fi camera can fake out the sophisticated electronics in a 2014 Jeep. And this ain’t pretty.
I recently had the privilege of speaking on the general topic of WLAN testing and benchmarking at a graduate Enterprise Wireless Networks class at Syracuse University.
IDC’s annual Directions conference focused this year on the “Third Platform”, which has mobility at its core. But there’s a lot more to this concept, with huge implications for the future of IT overall.
Most people think of M2M and IoT as being all about short, infrequent messages. But thinking about the end-to-end solution, there’s often a role for broadband as well.
As I noted in my last post, announcements around 802.11ac continue at a furious pace, with significant advances and meaningful differentiation as well.
Recent announcements from WLAN industry leaders show that even in the face of playing-field-leveling developments like 802.11ac, there are still enormous opportunities for differentiation and customer-facing benefits.
