Bluetooth:
The Future of Wireless Medical Technology? (2/02) A new
technology that borrows from telemetry, IrDA, and 802.11 is
set to continue the wireless trend. Medical device designers
now have several wireless options for their products. No
single wireless technology meets all design goals and
addresses all the issues presented to designers. For every
design project that includes wireless technology, decisions
must be made to identify most the appropriate technologies for
that application and device-use model. For many applications,
Bluetooth wireless technology will be the most appropriate
choice. |
