The Arrayent Blog

“Arrayent is an interesting company, because it has correctly identified a gap in the massive consumer products market. According to the company, most consumer product companies “lack Internet-connect expertise.” I agree with that assessment and think that Arrayent is positioning itself well to provide that expertise.” http://www.nytimes.com/external/readwriteweb/2010/01/26/26readwriteweb-arrayent-called-the-cisco-of-internet-of-th-13145.html

“By moving many of the communication processing tasks (like NAT firewall traversal) to the Server, [Arrayent’s] gateway reference design has been implemented with a low BOM cost, about $4-$5, less than half the cost of ZigBee gateway implementations, and enables consumer product companies to add an RF radio to their product for less than $2. https://www.pinestream.com/profile/152410/Arrayent?key=15r816P8km5Ao

“Part of what I find promising about the Arrayent components is that they are really cheap. They typically cost just $5-7 to build. The internet services Arrayent provides are included in this setup and consumers won’t have to pay a monthly fee to use these objects. Conceivably that means you could incorporate IoT capability into almost anything electronic without raising its price very much. Consumers are likely to adopt new IoT enabled products if their expense is competitive. I mean, wouldn’t you pay $10 more to get a DVR you could remotely control via your smart phone?” http://singularityhub.com/2010/05/06/arrayent-bringing-you-the-intgernet-of-things/

“Shane Dyer, president, Arrayent, talks with host Peggy Smedley about how Arrayent’s technology is being used in the retail industry and how the company provides a complete end-to-end solution to customers. He also talks on The Peggy Smedley Show about how the interoperability of various components of the Arrayent system, as well as a low price point, differentiates the company from others in the space.” http://www.peggysmedleyshow.com/index.php?q=node/601

“This led Dyer, who had previously launch ventures such as Propellerhead Studios and ActivePhoto, to create Arrayent, a company centered around the idea of providing embedded systems developers with the hardware and infrastructure necessary to manage devices without the need to invest in a huge infrastructure to host the communications, data collection, security and provisioning required to scale a commercial embedded solution.” http://www.drdobbs.com/embedded-systems/the-arrayent-internet-connect-developmen/225701625?pgno=1
