The Bluetooth Special Interest Group – the body that controls the wireless connectivity standard – has formally chosen ultrawideband as the foundation for future versions of the technology. UWB, traditionally seen as a potential competitor to Bluetooth, seems to now be bluetooth’s ticket to future relevance. Meanwhile, Bluetooth’s current popularity assures that UWB adoption won’t spark yet another Beta vs VHS standards war.
there may yet be some life in the bluetooth after wusb hits the market as that this is the same tech that wusb is supposedly going to use.
im looking forward to see how the security on wusb stacks up to bluetooth in both theory and implementation…
