The much lower power requirements of Wibree will enable it to be used in much smaller and energy efficent devices, such as wrist watches, as well as current Bluetooth applications, such as wireless keyboards and mice. While Wibree can operate in conjunction with existing Bluetooth networks, it uses a different frequency band - 2.4 gigahertz as opposed to 6 gigaherz - and its order of magnitude lower power requirements are already raising questions as to whether it will make Bluetooth obsolete.{moscomment} |
