Ambient IoT

Over the past two years, the Ambient IoT has been a growing topic of discussion. Standards bodies have begun to explore how best they can support this new class of device and have been active in driving the conversation around this topic. The Ambient IoT is a new class of IoT devices primarily powered by harvesting ambient energy from radio waves, light, motion, heat, or any other viable ambient energy source.

Bluetooth® technology, and specifically Bluetooth LE, holds a central role in the evolution of the Ambient IoT. Reasons for this central role include the technology feature set of Bluetooth LE, which makes it a go-to technology for the Ambient IoT, and the Bluetooth SIG’s position within the ecosystem supporting the ongoing development of Bluetooth technology and creating a developer base for low-power IoT solutions.
