M2M Communication Considerations in Medical Device Development

August 2, 2018 By MassDevice

Machine-to-machine communication (M2M) refers to the sharing of information between two devices. It is a key component in the rapidly growing “Internet of Things” (IoT), the increasing connectivity of devices in the home, workspaces, industry, and beyond. M2M communication can be as simple as the unidirectional transfer of data or as complex as multiplexed signals […]
