West Technology Research Solutions (WTRS) has released a new report titled ‘Wireless Sensor Network Technology Trends, Q3 2011’ in which it has presented an analysis of the activities carried out by well-known industry partnerships.
Kirsten West, who is the Principal Analyst in WTRS, has revealed that there was great potential for wireless sensor networks in smart meters in regions outside the US while their usage in the US seemed to be bleak. The report gives predictions about the market for wireless sensor networks and also gives information about newly emerging technologies along with software such as Bluetooth, ZigBee, IEEE, Z-Wave, and Dash7, to name a few.
The report also gives a comprehensive analysis of chipset features. It takes a look at energy harvesting technologies used in wireless sensor networks and provides forecasts for a period of five years on unit shipments, detail sales volume, average selling price by geography and vertical market segments. Volume data and historical data are also given in the report. Forecasts about applications in medical, consumer, industrial automation, facility medical, building automation, smart metering, agriculture, transportation, security fields, energy management, residential health and home area networks are also provided in the report.
