Vision & Mission
The Third Wireless Wave |
 |
Wireless voice networks have existed for decades. By 1999, wireless data networks had begun to see widespread deployment.
Now, we are entering the third wireless wave. Also known as “The Internet of Things”, the third wave is utilizing wireless sense and control technology to bridge the gap between the physical world of humans and the virtual world of electronics.
Sense and control networks do not enhance human communication. They allow sensors to interact with actuators, making it a more dynamic world, avoiding error-prone, routinous and costly human intervention.
GreenPeak provides technology and devices that enable customers to add wireless communication to their sense and control applications.
Bridging the Physical and Virtual World
GreenPeak bridges the physical and the virtual world by linking the sensor data from the physical world with the virtual world of networks (the Internet) and allowing controllers from the virtual world to intervene in the physical world through actuators.
Cees Links, CEO of GreenPeak Technologies states:
“The strength of wireless sensor networks can only be fully achieved when the wiring for both the data communication and power supply is eliminated.
GreenPeak is a company with a true battery-free vision that offers wireless communication solutions eliminating the need for both data and power cabling.” |

GreenPeak's vision is well accepted in the industry and leading standardisation organozations alike.
Bob Heile, Chairman of the ZigBee Alliance about GreenPeak:
“ GreenPeak brings the real strength of ZigBee wireless sensor networks to life by providing battery-free solutions based on energy harvesting.
Many applications do not permit connection to the power grid and battery-less operation is the ultimate long life solution.
GreenPeak’s battery-free vision is the logical next enhancement for the expansion of ZigBee wireless sensor networks. ” |

GreenPeak’s Mission
 |
GreenPeak’s mission is to be a leader in the next wireless revolution and to help building a greener world.
Copper has become a rare good and makes cabling expensive and the ever increasing usage of batteries holds an ecological threat. By eliminating both in GreenPeak’s low power wireless sensor networks, GreenPeak helps to maintain an ecological balance, live within the resource limits of our planet and move to a more energy efficient economy. |
