UST Global has announced partnerships with Preva Systems, company focusing on telecom and embedded systems, as well as Mobiotics, which specialises in future technology experiences.
Through this, the company will help customers adopt new telecom technologies in niche areas such as Machine-to-Machine; Internet of Things; Web of Things; and Connected TV.
Niche technologies‘Machine-to-Machine’ technologies allow wireless and wired systems to communicate with other devices of the same type. These technologies enable networked devices to exchange information and perform actions without manual assistance.
‘Internet of Things’ seeks to ‘tag’ things though technologies such as near-field communication, barcodes, QR codes and digital watermarking.
In the ‘Web of Things’ concept, physical objects of everyday use are made citizens of the World Wide Web by giving them an API (application programming interface).
This will facilitate creation of their virtual profiles as well as their integration and reuse in all kinds of applications.
‘Connected TV’ refers to the trend of integration of the Internet and Web 2.0 features into TV sets and set-top boxes as also technological convergence between computers, TV sets and set-top boxes.
