Deliver new experiences
By licensing our patents, you can deliver new experiences with your devices based on wireless technologies. Discover our patent portfolio for new connected devices.
Payment terminals
Wireless payment terminals for credit card processing can streamline the customer experience in places such as restaurants or taxis. Businesses benefit by providing a secure option that makes it easier and more comfortable for customers to make payments.
MedTech devices
AI tools can use connected data sources to improve the productivity of healthcare and free up time to help patients. Telemedicine and connected diagnostic IoT devices can extend healthcare access to remote locations without deploying medical professionals and stationary infrastructure.
Smart buildings
Connectivity technologies in smart buildings enable seamless communication between devices, systems, and users. This allows for real-time data collection, analysis, and control, enabling efficiency improvements through predictive maintenance and optimized energy efficiency, enhanced security, and improved occupant comfort.
Security systems
Connected security systems enable enhanced monitoring and control, real-time alerts, and data analysis capabilities, leading to faster response times, improved situational awareness, and a more comprehensive security solution. These systems also facilitate communication and collaboration among security personnel, enhancing overall security effectiveness.
Aftermarket telematics
Telematics systems leverage connectivity to enable real-time data sharing between connected vehicles and the cloud. This enables vehicle monitoring, diagnostics, fleet management and other use cases which enhance safety, fuel-efficiency, and cost effectiveness.
New products
The IoT continues to evolve, with new use cases being continuously developed for industry and consumer applications. Our IoT patent licensing program supports the full range of connected devices currently in the market whilst continuously expanding to cover new and upcoming devices.
