right now about 2 meter or 6 feet. They say they can get up to 20 meter or 60 feet in. next year or two.

Hi John, We hear you. So far we have been focusing our time on deployment with a small number of large opportunities. You can see a couple of short/limited videos of our product in action: here kzbin.info/www/bejne/sH-vdn-ui7-njZY & here kzbin.info/www/bejne/nXSoeJ-Jja5rh5o - Later this year we will be making some announcements of production deployments with the major accounts that we have been working with in our Early Pilot Program, along with new versions of the product and developer kits that will be available much more widely, so that more people can work with our product hands on.

​@@Wiliot Are you still on track for accepting purchases of the developer kits in Q2 of 2021 and for those kits to be delivered by Q3 of 2021?

@@chriskruger6999 the dev kits are $500

Developer kits are available from their website to preorder. They are very expensive though at $500. I want to see some videos actual users testing these. So far all the videos have been from Williot and none accurately show a working demo in any level of detail. Exciting times but need to see more.

Hi Tomas, Thanks for watching and commenting. Adherence to privacy rules is an important part of what it will take for this new technology to be adopted. It's a huge subject, but to answer at a high level, we take it seriously. All Wiliot tags use encryption to communicate, so that there is a single owner who is accountable for managing their responsibilities to conform to GDPR i.e. implementing an opt-in before collecting any Personally Identifiable Information (PII), being open about what information they are collecting, and only collecting what is needed and keeping the data no longer than is essential for the stated purpose. We have been asked to sell tags without this, that broadcast in the clear so that they can be used for tracking and tracing by third parties without consent and refused to do it, not because we are nice, but because it's good business. We recognize that unless Wiliot is used for good, and unless consumers benefit from having connected products, battery-free Bluetooth won't be accepted and used at all. Best regards, Steve

No b/c you just take the tag off

Hi Doug, Thanks for your interest! 1) The duration of time to harvest the needed energy to sense, compute, and transmit, depends on the source of energy and the distance from that source. In optimal conditions, we see tags harvest and transmit in under 1 second. 2) Version 1.0 of Wiliot tags will have a range of 2-3 meters, both for harvesting and transmitting. Although, we have seen transmission reach father. Version 2.0 will have a range of 1-20 meters. 3. Correct, this is Bluetooth Low Energy technology which sends a non-connectable advertising packet to be received by any device with a Bluetooth radio.

@@jessiehazelrigg3371 Hi and amazing work. Are your Version 2.0 out for trials now?

Hello! Our approach to movement sensing is quite unique as it relies on measuring changes in the tag (or product/packaging it’s applied to) environment. It is not a standard movement sensor like an accelerometer, that gives exact orientation/direction information. Our focus has been on “pick up” movement detection thus far, as we have project driving such requirements. Feel free to reach out if you have further questions: [email protected]

Hello! The above demonstration video was released as part of a Press Release in January 2020, you can find it here: www.wiliot.com/blog/b2funding

Hi Jason! Thanks for your interest and enthusiasm for Wiliot's battery-free Bluetooth technology. We are targeting 2021 for general product availability (GA) and for offering development kits.

thank you!

@That One VFX Guy because it's not possible what they are claiming to do, and they're probably just trying to milk the concept for some big investors to pad their wallets

@That One VFX Guy Rude? are you out of your mind? If anyone tries to sell you something, you just don't buy it on the spot, you are going to want proof that it works. This smell like all of those kickstarter scams.
