If you think CES is an obvious place to showcase Bluetooth innovation, the Bluetooth Special Interest Group agrees. The SIG has announced the winners for the 2016 Bluetooth Breakthrough Awards, which were held in Las Vegas, off the back of CES.
The overall winner was the Fliegl Tracker, a Bluetooth beacon-based vehicle detection system. The idea is that it reduces food safety concerns by making the agricultural distribution cycle more transparent and the production of foodstuffs traceable.
"Every year, the Bluetooth Breakthrough Awards demonstrate that the Internet of Things is not just hype. It’s real and becoming more important every day," said Errett Kroeter, Vice President of Marketing at Bluetooth SIG. "These products, applications, and prototypes represent the amazing relationships we can - and already do - create between people and technology. Our winners aren't just embracing the potential of the IoT; they're creating it with the flexibility and simplicity of Bluetooth. Just take our overall winner Fliegl for example. With a tiny Bluetooth beacon they created a product that can make our food supply much safer."
As the overall winner, Fliegl Agratechnik will be highlighted among the Bluetooth innovations driving IoT growth at Bluetooth World 2016 in March, says the SIG. And they will be receiving transportation and exhibition space valued at $12,500.
"Of course we are happy and proud of such outstanding success,"says Franz Höpfinger, development manager at Fliegl Agrartechnik, right. "Being the world’s number one, out of more than 300 submitted Bluetooth innovations that received an award, represents a great recognition for the research work that is done at Fliegl. At the same time, receiving such award motivates us to continue to be actively involved in the technological future".
Fliegl Tracker Small and reliable, Bluetooth beacons are the linchpin of this IoT solution for agriculture and make Fliegl’s long-term plans to improve food safety around the globe a possibility.
