First Swarm Platform for Industrial Safety Applications
Nanotron Technologies launches revolutionary platform with swarm features.
(firmenpresse) - Berlin, February 28, 2013 - Location awareness specialist, nanotron Technologies, has launched a new product to revolutionize industrial safety applications: the swarm platform. It consists of swarm radios controlled by a swarm application programming interface (API) as well as swarm toolkits enabling fast development and implementation of location-aware applications. Swarm is currently used for collision avoidance, secure access and virtual safety zones.
Swarm radios with their application-programming interface are optimized and tested low power 2.4 GHz Chirp Spread Spectrum radio modules. They can be directly deployed - there is no need for low level driver software. Nanotron CEO Dr. Jens Albers explains: "Our swarm platform significantly reduces overall development effort for new location-aware products thus reducing time to market." Nanotron CTO Rainer Hach adds: "The new nanotron product enables users to easily create their own location-aware applications. Much of the development risk has been eliminated, since users rely on proven radio hardware and the comprehensive application interface."
Nanotron"s swarm product will help to solve several problems wherever distance monitoring and automated communication is crucial. In mining for instance, swarm can be used for collision avoidance: An alarm is generated if machines or people get too close. Nanotron"s small low power swarm radios serve as the key element for these types of mobile solutions.
The new nanotron swarm platform relies on swarm intelligence: Individuals in a swarm know their position and communicate with one another thus moving around securely without interfering with each other. Implementing this idea, nanotron has developed its swarm platform. Besides communication, it incorporates location awareness, the ability to measure the distances between individuals in the swarm.
