Speaker(s): Damon Barnes
Bluetooth® technology remains the world’s most widely deployed wireless standard, with more than 5 billion devices shipping annually. By 2029, that number is expected to reach 7.7 billion, according to ABI Research, driven by continued growth across audio, data transfer, localization, and device network use cases. To maintain its momentum and address evolving demands of Bluetooth devices, Bluetooth® technology is advancing with the introduction of Bluetooth® High Data Throughput (HDT). This upcoming enhancement to Bluetooth LE will significantly increase data rates while improving energy efficiency and connection reliability. In this session, Damon Barnes, director of technical marketing, will provide an early look at HDT, explore its technical benefits, and highlight how it will enable a new generation of high-performance Bluetooth LE solutions.
