SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Jan. 8, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Providing its customers with a more accessible solution for viewing and downloading force measurement data, Interface today introduced its new Bluetooth^® Telemetry System (BTS) solution. At the heart of Interface's BTS solution is the powerful Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) strain bridge transmitter module that provides access to high quality measurements on a mobile platform such as a phone or tablet. BTS features high measurement resolution, simple integration into iOS and Android Apps, achievable ranges of up to 90m line of sight, extended battery life and the ability to view data from multiple sensors all at once.

"Interface is well-known in the industry for accuracy, and the BTS combines precision with innovative Bluetooth technology to provide the most user-friendly experience possible," said Joel Strom, CEO, Interface. "The ability to receive the critical data in real-time will greatly improve our customer's product development efficiency in the digital age."

The BTS features high measurement resolution, which produces a noise free resolution of 1 in 92,000 counts (16.5 bit) when used with a 3mV/V sensor and 1 in 184,000 counts (17.5 bit) when used with a 6mV/V sensor. The system also allows for advert format and encoding as well as details on connected services to facilitate simple integration of the device within custom apps for OEM applications.

The BTS free iOS and Android apps are available for download and enable users to create dashboards with varying degrees of detail based on application requirements. The BTS sensor data output can be visualized on mobile devices with a variety of digital displays, gages, tanks and charts. Displayed data can be defined as mathematical expressions consisting of readings from multiple transmitters, functions and constants. The apps also facilitate Interface's BTS module configuration and calibration.

The BTS solution continues to showcase the growing line of wireless technologies offered by Interface that are used for accurate force measurement. BTS joins Interface's Wireless Telemetry System (WTS) in the growing demand by manufacturers and integrators who need flexibility and freedom from the restraints of wired systems. The Interface BTS is available now and details of the solution can be found here.
