Trends In Direct
Connected Devices
Challenges For Direct
Connected Devices
Effortlessness
Device setup and association is unintuitive today
Multi-transport devices don’t provide equivalent
behavior across buses
Security
Association is unintuitive. Forced to use null pins
Device control in IT environment is complex
Reliability
Simple driver install and software maintenance
Drivers are hard to develop and maintain
Ability to safely store / recover data decades later
UltraWideBand
UltraWideBand continues to engage
interest in industry around Personal
Area Networking (PAN)
UWB Solutions around
Certified Wireless USB
IP over UWB (WiNET)
Bluetooth over UWB?
Lessons from wireless around…
Simple association
Top-notch security
Ease of use
