It’s 15-Love for New Bluetooth Tennis Racquet

Babolat introduced the world’s first Bluetooth^® enabled tennis racquet, the Babolat Play Pure Drive. Like any other sport, it’s important to be able to gather athlete information to improve performance. The Babolat Play collects data like shot power, ball impact location, number of strokes (forehand, backhand, serve and smash), spin level, total and effective play time, endurance, technique, consistency, energy and rallies. After collecting all the data, the Bluetooth Smart connection sends the information to a smart device. Players can then evaluate performance or share the information through a dedicated platform.

Track Environmental Radiation Exposure with Bluetooth Sensor

I was just thinking to myself the other day I should really be continuously monitoring my background radiation. Enter DO-RA, the dosimeter-radiometer that continuously monitors background radiation. The Bluetooth^® enabled sensor attaches to your smartphone and measures the amount of radiation received by the owner, gives off a warning if the radiation dosage is too high and transfers the collected data to any electronic device.
Intersoft Eurasia developed the appcessory in response to the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster in Japan. The sensor takes measurements every four seconds and measures exposure over time to forecast annual exposure. The company is designing a concept watch to take the place of the smartphone and is looking into building a sensor directly into the phone.
