Company Description

Computer Infrastructure for Mobile Apps

WideTag is a pioneer in architecting computing systems that integrate sensors, positioning devices and memory with social, Web 2.0-style services in applications that revolutionize business and push consumer technology. Mobile devices enable unprecedented ease of distribution and adoption for software of any type. As devices are now inter-connected and location-aware, digital serv-ices provide an opportunity to integrate computing use into a 24 hour lifestyle. WideTag takes advantage of this opportu-nity to sell applications and hardware ex-tensions that radically ehance the usersʼ experience with their surroundings. Advanced mobile devices natively lay out a sensor network of hundreds of millions of points. WideTag developed and released an open source communications protocol called OpenSpime, a robust start-ing point for an application ecosystem. Its own hardware and software products, sold to specific target markets, will later be opened up to developers for further extension.
