Synapse Wireless Named North American Emerging Company of the Year

Synapse Wireless, the leader in Internet-enabled, wireless machine-to-machine (M2M) communication, has been awarded the “North America Emerging Company of the Year for 2009 Award” by Frost & Sullivan.

When citing the reasons for selecting Synapse above all others in this crowded, new market, Frost & Sullivan stated that, “since the introduction of the Internet as a building automation tool, no other technology has had as profound an impact as wireless technology. Synapse is well positioned to evolve with current and potentially nascent wireless and TCP/IP standards, spearheading the efforts toward acceptance and adoption of wireless and open protocols.”

"Synapse's SNAP will revolutionize wireless sensor networks,” said Michael Davidson, Freescale Semiconductor, Inc. “The simplicity of developing an application using SNAP is close to incredible – every customer that has used SNAP has been amazed at the low cost, robustness, and ease of use.”

SNAP is an auto-forming, multi-hop, mesh network, software solution and is the industry’s only solution that was designed from the ground up for seamless connection to the Internet. The company’s approach makes wireless technology accessible to a much broader range of users, including monitoring and control in consumer, commercial, industrial, and government markets. Uses range from building automation (lighting, security, HVAC) to industrial control and machine communication, medical monitoring, security applications and home automation.

“Your product is being used to save lives,” said Micah Duke, Electronic Technical Crew Chief for American Airlines, when learning he was Synapse’s 500th registered SNAP user. “Without the reliable, wireless solution that SNAP gives us, we could never have afforded the construction necessary to wire in remote lightning warning lights on the airport tarmac.”

Synapse has a growing number of partners who are offering SNAP on their hardware platforms to provide interoperable solutions to the market.
