In the amount of time it will take you to read just this page, there will be:
- 50 new diabetes patients worldwide
- 1013 transistors manufactured
- 9625 mobile phones sold
- Close to one ton of NOx emitted in Hong Kong
- Your well conditioned heart will have beaten 125 beats less than for an inactive person
(yes, that means 13 million times less per year !!) and you will probably have lost
between 120 and 175 neurons
Everyday we lose precious data which if captured could be processed to improve our daily
lives!
What can be done about it ? By extending our mobile phones to serve as gateways to connect wireless sensors to the cloud.

We started working with Bluetooth sensors in 2005 and found renewed inspiration when
GPRS and 3G opened up a whole new world of possibilities for real time sensing. Our next
stage will be to integrate social networks and sensor networks.
Here are some applications in the works:
Environmental monitoring:
- Bicycle route optimisation
- Air cabin quality monitoring on commercial flights
- Ventilation and indoor air quality optimisation in stores
Sports:
- Endurance running
- Driver physiological response during championship races
- Sailing and kite surfing
What is your application going to be?
Here are a few examples of what inspires us everyday to improve our solutions:
