Roke ZigBee - Short Range Low Cost Communications ZigBee is a communications standard that provides a short range low cost networking capability. ZigBee has been developed with the emphasis on low-cost, battery powered applications such as consumer electronics, home and building automation, industrial controls, PC peripherals, medical sensor applications, and toys and games. ZigBee has been developed by the IEEE and the ZigBee Alliance to provide the first general standard for these applications. ZigBee Benefits Using a tenth of the processor memory requirements of Bluetooth and a fraction of the MIPS needed for 802.11 networking devices ZigBee is the best solution for low data rate short-range communications.

Triangle Advanced Design and Automation, PLLC provides not only consulting services for your next design, but we provide advanced hands-on workshops for embedded systems engineers in current topics as ZigBee / IEEE 802.15.4 and USB host design.
WSN Update The latest news and information related to ZigBee and Wireless Sensor Mesh Networking Technology.
Z-Wave Alliance The Z-Wave Alliance members lead the home controls market, providing systems that deliver increased comfort, convenience, safety and security. Z-Wave based systems are easy to install and use, and allow products from all members to interoperate seamlessly.

What is the main difference between ZigBee and Z-Wave? There are many differences. Right now, ZigBee is not available in products whereas Z-Wave is in the market for over three years and is already adopted by over 100 OEMs as their standard interoperable platform for residential control. Leading members of ZigBee have selected Z-Wave as the right choice for their residential control applications.

Z-Wave is a wireless RF-based communications technology designed for residential and light commercial control and status reading applications such as meter reading, lighting and appliance control, HVAC, access control, intruder and fire detection, etc. Z-Wave transforms any stand-alone device into an intelligent networked device that can be controlled and monitored wirelessly.
