Until very recently, the cost of networking hardware and Internet access had limited connectivity primarily to personal computers and high-end electronic equipment. Ipsil's technology enables a world where connectivity is the rule, not the exception for a wide range of electronic, industrial and consumer products.Internet connectivity in the workplace and at home has been limited to only highly intelligent and expensive devices: computers, servers, PDAs, etc. Billions of microprocessors are at work in intelligent devices worldwide, yet less than 1% of these microprocessors exchange data with other computers.
