ANT Wireless has developed the ANT USB2 stick, a 2nd generation ANT USB dongle which allows personal computer applications on both Windows and Mac OS.
This improved user interface offers better connection to ANT sport, fitness and home health networks and sensors like heart rate and weight scale, and hubs such as watches. The ANT USB2 stick incorporates the enhanced ANT core stack and supports up to eight ANT channels.
Application developers can now utilise these features to simplify the pairing process, connect to more sensors at a time and offer a more robust data link. Advancements in the USB drivers mean that the stick works with Apple’s I/O Kit framework, so that additional driver installation is not required on Mac OS X machines. The PC Windows driver is now certified by Windows Hardware Quality Labs and available through Windows Update.
Key ANT AP2 core stack enhancements include: high density node support up to 300 nodes at 1 Hz Tx rate in the same RF space; frequency agility; proximity search in the form of a built-in device search and pairing mechanism; low latency scanning mode for asynchronous applications like remote control; improved channel search with less impact to existing working channels; channel ID management with improved device pairing efficiency; and individual output power control per channel
To facilitate application developers, some software resources are now public and include the ANTwareII network testing and debugging tool and ANT library for Windows and Mac OS X.
