From smart watches and fitness bands to industrial, healthcare and wellness products, wearable electronics comprise a new growth vector for the exploding Internet of Things (IoT) market. Wearable products require a broad range of technologies—from microcontrollers (MCUs) and microprocessors to control the device, to sensor-fusion and sensor management, GUI and touch interfaces, BLE and Wi-Fi for wireless communication and security for authentication and anti-counterfeiting.
Atmel develops turnkey system on a chip (SoC) solutions for wearable designs. These devices leverage our broad product portfolio, global support infrastructure, strategic partnerships, and Atmel® Studio development environment.
Atmel BLE solution is especially suitable for wearable application. The Atmel® SmartConnect Bluetooth® solution is a family of self-contained, low-power, and certified modules bringing Bluetooth Low Energy connectivity to any embedded design. These integrated modules offer the ideal solutions for designers seeking to develop wearable or IoT devices without any Bluetooth Low Energy (Bluetooth Smart), IP Stack or RF experience. SmartConnect BLE opens the door of the Internet of Things to the vast array of battery-powered devices and applications requiring the integration of BLE connectivity without compromising on cost and power consumption |
