Abstract
“Today market uncertainty is in the forefront of public thought and
concern,” according to Kirsten West, PhD, principal analyst with WTRS.
“This is the time for companies to invest in research and development of
the next emerging wireless technology in preparation for the inevitable
recovery of markets. It is not a good time to release consumer products based
on emerging wireless protocols that do not satisfy a clear need. In current
market conditions consumer delighters will not mean successful strategy,
instead meeting essential consumer requirements at the lowest cost will be the
winning tactic”
This report focuses on the prospects for emerging wireless technologies in
consumer markets. It analyzes the activities and developments of companies and
alliances plus the consumer electronics applications segments likely to adopt
emerging wireless technologies, including UWB, Bluetooth, and the IEEE 802.11
family of protocols. Unit shipments are detailed by specific application and
technology including Bluetooth and UWB.
This report also takes into consideration the current global economic crisis.
It includes global & regional market trends & forecasts, regulatory issues,
standards development, economic effects, and strategic developments. Finally,
a 5-year forecast that details sales volume and unit shipments by vertical
technology segment provides data that can be used to build business or product
plans.
Key Findings:
- (1) Given years of positive growth projections, the faltering
economy will overturn consumer electronics manufacturer plans.
- (2) Consumers frustrated by cabled connectivity and need education
on the value of wireless.
- (3) Success in near term markets demands solutions that meet
customer requirements.
