U.S. Wireless Sensing Networks: R&D and Commercialization Activities
Fuji-Keizai USA, Inc., Oct 2004, Pages: 189
Sensors, interfaced with or embedded in communications networks, collect data about the physical world -- about people, objects and their physical properties, and events.
Wireless connectivity, in particular, makes it possible to locate sensors in many different environments, have the data collected centrally and then disseminated via the Internet or other wide area network.
This report looks at the development and commercialization of sensors outfitted with wireless radios and used in applications across many industries.
The main thrust of our report is to introduce the market's key players, from traditional market leaders to new entrepreneurial start-ups to top-tier R&D organizations.
Section 1: Market Landscape. Explains the factors driving development and demand for wireless sensor networks, and assesses current market segmentation and size.
Section 2: Technology Overview. Concisely explains the underlying enabling technologies--wireless LANs, PANs, WANs; microsystems; power management technologies; and standards.
Section 3: Industries and Applications. Presents select examples of wireless sensing applications in medicine, security, building control, home automation and transportation.
Section 4: U.S. Commercial Companies/Ventures. Profiles 31 companies active in the wireless sensor network marketplace, their products and target markets.
Section 5: R&D Activities and Alliances. Profiles 26 different R&D projects at universities or under study at joint commercial/academic research centers.
Section 6: Conclusions and Suggestions. Summarizes our key findings and highlights suggested opportunities for traditional network service providers.
