In this episode of Embedded Insiders,  Mikko Savolainen, Silicon Labs' Senior Product Line Director of Commercial, joins the podcast to discuss the partnership between Silicon Labs and Emanate Wireless on the RadioVision solution. The battery-powered, AI-enabled Bluetooth doorway chokepoint system is a Real-Time Location System (RTLS) designed to help hospitals accurately track staff, patients, and equipment. 

Bluetooth is everywhere, right? 

Until recently, I would have said “Almost everywhere,” since it hadn’t yet affected the industrial sector. However, according to Simon Ford, the Founder of Blecon, Bluetooth has now entered that final frontier. It’s done so for obvious reasons, like power, performance, and ubiquity, and a few other reasons. 

Hear what Simon has to say on this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.

London, United Kingdom. Blecon, with MOKO SMART, introduced the L02S-BCN, a cutting-edge Smart Beacon co-designed by both companies to deliver innovative sensing and connectivity for industrial and commercial use cases. The L02S-BCN is built on MOKO’s trusted L02 platform and enhanced for leading-edge Bluetooth applications leveraging Nordic Semiconductor’s nRF54L system-on-chip (SoC) seamlessly integrating with the Blecon Network.

Just when you thought you’d done everything you could do with Bluetooth, along comes something new and unique. At a recent technical conference, I was witness to a very cool demo that was all based on Bluetooth. Rather than attempt to describe it myself, I asked Simon Ford, the Founder of Blecon, the company providing the demo, to explain what it is, how it works, and why it’s so difficult to achieve. Hear it on this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.
