About Us gainspan brings ultra low power wi-fi capability to sensor networks and applications. The company's semiconductor technology breaks new ground in the application of wi-fi, reducing power consumption to dramatically low levels and enabling years of battery life for sensor devices. in september of 2006, a core team of engineers and thought leaders from intel founded gainspan to accelerate the adoption of new wireless usage models for in-demand sensor network applications by applying its innovative low power wi-fi chip technology to an existing widely deployed standard networking technology ¿ wi-fi. this innovation suddenly removed the two obstacles that had been hindering the market growth of wireless sensor networks, namely high power consumption and lack of mature standards-based solutions, and opened the floodgates of new possibilities for sensor products and applications. today, gainspan is bringing low power wi-fi semiconductor and software solutions to market that enable sensors and other devices to run up to 10 years on a single aa battery, a capability unheard of just a short time ago. Gainspan customers can leverage the global wi-fi infrastructure as well as existing tools and knowledge investments to create many new applications such as temperature monitoring for energy management in homes and businesses, condition monitoring in manufacturing plants, or asset tracking in hospitals and warehouses. |
