We are bridging the digital divide by unlocking the potential trapped inside low-powered devices. The computer revolution is one of the greatest revolutions in human history. And yet, 75% of the world still lives outside of its reach, struggling to fulfill the most basic of needs. Health, education, livelihood. What would a world look like where everyone has access to the opportunities that computing can offer? To full desktop computers with fast and easy software? The sum of human knowledge would be at their fingertips. Education, job opportunities, health information, all accessible to everyone. That world is possible. Our mission is to build it.
Estimote creates small, wireless sensors that use Bluetooth low energy (BLE) to detect the location of nearby smartphones and communicate with them using an API they`ve developed to make it easy for developers to add micro-location features to their mobile apps. Their Estimote Beacons or `motes` can run up to two years on a single coin battery and can communicate with smartphones as close as four inches away or as far as 160 feet (50m). By using Estimote`s SDK, developers will also be able to access a centralized dashboard on the Estimote website. Using their platform, developers and retailers can use the analytics collected from multiple sensors in a store to optimize product placement, provide indoor navigation, engage in proximity marketing, add automatic check-ins or even do contactless payments. Their sensors are already being used by large retailers in Europe and they`re working to build a large network of their sensors in US.
