The Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) has named Asthmapolis the winner in the Product Category of the Bluetooth Breakthrough Awards. The awards recognize innovative products and apps that use Bluetooth wireless technology. Asthmapolis, which uses inhaler sensors and mobile apps to transmit and track data on patient use of inhalers, was one of five finalists for the award.
Bluetooth SIG CMO Suke Jawanda commented, “Innovations made possible by Bluetooth technology are exploding worldwide – every day we are seeing new companies, some in markets where wireless connectivity was previously impossible, developing innovative products using Bluetooth technology. The winners of the Bluetooth Breakthrough Awards are extraordinary in that they take an everyday product, like a battery or an inhaler, and make it smarter. A standard inhaler can now gather data and turn it into useful, possibly life-saving, information thanks to Asthmapolis.”
