The Wireless Sensor Network Market – A Sea Of Small Volume Opportunities
“Many new opportunity areas for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have emerged into public view that do not possess large chip volume potential but very strong business cases,” according to Kirsten West, principal analyst with WTRS. “WSN technologies are becoming available in more useful forms than simple protocol specifications and chipsets. Availability of modules across all the emerging wireless protocols supports the development of WSNs in smaller individual market volume opportunities. Combined these lower volume opportunities represent tremendous potential for companies directly engaged with consumers of the end product.”

Energy Harvesting Cuts Wireless Sensor Networks Maintenance Costs
"One of the primary hurdles to wireless sensor market adoption is the requirements imposed by battery implementation", said Kirsten West, Principal Analyst with WTRS. "Large installations that require units to undergo battery replacement can create maintenance costs that overpower the initial cost of the equipment. Logistics surrounding battery condition monitoring and replacement can overwhelm customers."

Wireless Charging Technology Empowers Electric Vehicle Markets and Changes Consumer Behavior
"The benefits of implementing wireless charging technology in electric vehicles far outweigh the challenges. The technology not only offers a solution to the safety and convenience issues currently inhibiting electric vehicle adoption, but also presents an opportunity to change consumer behavior.", said Kirsten West, Principal Analyst with WTRS. "Combined with wireless communication technology, wireless charging could further abstract the maintenance and care of electric vehicles turning them truly into transportation tools and away from devices that require thought and attention. In a very real sense wireless charging technology offers the equivalent change for consumer usage of the vehicle as cell phones with integrated downloadable third party applications and location and accelerometer capability has done for communications."
