Forecast for ZigBee-based Components Does Not Change

Mountain View, CA, November 10, 2010 --(PR.com)-- The newly updated study, “WTRS Wireless Sensor Network Technology Trends, Q4 2010,” reviews and analyzes the available and proposed technology solutions competing for dominance in the wireless sensor network segment.

“The forecast for ZigBee components has not changed significantly over the last year,” said Kirsten West, Principal Analyst with WTRS. “While the ZigBee market survived the generalized market recession, it did not rebound as strongly as it could have. This is in part due to a continued absence of an IP-based stack option for ZigBee.”
