Extending the Internet
The Internet of Things (IoT)
 Connectivity & Communication between Devices
and Physical Objects, or "Things," is a growing
trend that is often referred to as the Internet of
Things.
 Technologies that enable integration of real world
data and services into the current information
networking technologies are often described under
the umbrella term of the Internet of Things (IoT)”


Sensor devices are becoming widely available
- Programmable devices

- Off-the-shelf gadgets/tools

nanoBlue: Get Connected...


NanoBlue is focused on linking, processing and sharing information between
devices and people with ultralow energy consumption in hostile environments.
In particular the product provides;









instant connectivity -7X faster connectivity than competitors
the world’s smaller size,
lower power consumption
High security
100% compatibility /portability to all embedded platforms
Easy integration with other Software and Systems
Ultralow Energy enabling 10 years battery life on a coin battery

Elements that create a unique product able to process information at lower energy
Nanoblue enables you to communicate with objects via your Mobile Phone,
PC,Tablet
and other devices to communicate with each-other to make people’s life better
and
reformulate their relation with the environment.

nanoBlue Applications
NanoBlue opens up possibilities and applications, such as:
•
•
•





Logistics monitoring, where packages decide where to be shipped,
Smart City- urban planning, energy efficiency networks, where lights decide when to be switched,
intelligent shopping,
Smart Mobility- Cars have become the “ultimate mobile device” and we, the people, are becoming
“connected drivers. Remote diagnostic capabilities that alert them when parts need replacement
e-Healthcare - Patients are ingesting Internet devices into their own bodies to help doctors diagnose
and determine the causes of certain diseases,
Intelligent shopping,
Smart product management,
Smart meters,
Home automation
Sport & Fitness
Consumer Electronics
PC Peripheral
Being an extremely small sensors it can be placed on plants, animals, and geologic features, and
connected to the Internet

Therefore through Nanoblue objects will no longer be neutral and passive, but active and
participatory in all new forms of interactions for the creation of a smarter planet.
