An another article on BANs

Another article on Body Area Networks and the Federal Government's continuing interest in furthering its development.  Here's the link to the article: http://www.informationweek.com/news/healthcare/mobile-wireless/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=224200068

Much of the work seems analogous vehicle telemetry research and development. One of the applications for the technology we developed at Rosetta-Wireless was for the transport of vehicle telemetry over the commercial wireless network in real-time or near real time.  The problem that we solved was handling gaps, faults and multiple types of wireless connections while the vehicle was in motion.  Again, body data will need to be transported over wireless using a robust logical connection to overcome the imperfections of the wireless network and perform the task without burdening the user - an extremely important consideration.

The next article will discuss the implications of HE75 and the means, methods and importance of not burdening or overtaxing the user.
