With widespread adoption of ZigBee Smart Energy, and increasing demand for Smart Energy solutions, device vendors are under intense competitive pressure to rapidly integrate ZigBee SE into their products.
Developing a ZigBee Smart Energy solution from the ground up can be time-consuming; from evaluating different ZigBee platforms, to integrating hardware and developing ZigBee networking software - including the ZigBee Smart Energy application. And as with many evolving standards, any ZigBee SE solution will require ongoing feature and compatibility updates as new revisions are ratified.
RapidSE⢠is a family of Smart Energy hardware and software that allows smart energy device vendors to leapfrog this development phase, and integrate a fully-compliant ZigBee SE platform. With RapidSE, vendors can take advantage of a robust solution built on years of ZigBee expertise in hardware and software design, and can rely on always having the most current feature set.
The heart of the RapidSE⢠is an embedded Smart Energy application pre-loaded onto a ZigBee module or chip.
Integrated with your hardware, RapidSE acts as a robust gateway between your device and the local Home Area Network. Much more than just a radio, RapidSE abstracts the significant functionality and logic of the ZigBee Smart Energy Profile and Home Automation functions to a simple serial protocol. This allows your device to perform complex Smart Energy operations by issuing simple commands using your existing microcontroller.
RapidSE is available for both ESPs and HAN devices, giving developers of any Smart Energy device a way to quickly bring their products to the ZigBee platform, and to the accellerating Smart Energy market.
RapidSE is designed to be a turnkey solution with flexible options. Developers can interface with the RapidSE application at a number of levels of detail, and can even implement their own value-added functionality beyond the ZigBee Smart Energy specification. We also offer contract development services should you require additional resources to adress your unique requirements.
The RapidSE family comprises a variety products and kits, providing both valuable development tools, and robust platforms for evaluating third-party devices. Click here to learn more about RapidSE products.
