Nordic Semiconductor Global Tech Tour to Help Embedded Systems Developers Build Connectable Wireless Bluetooth Smart and ANT 'appcessories' in a Day
OSLO, Norway, August 15, 2012/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --
To be held in 16 separate locations in the U.S, Asia, and Europe between September 17
and October 29 and designed to coincide with the launch of Nordic's ground-breaking nRF51
Series of 2.4GHz SoCs, the Nordic Semiconductor Global Tech Tour will take a team of the
company's top wireless application technical experts on the road to deliver a free, high
intensitytraining seminar designed to get embedded systems engineers up-to-speed within a
day on how to build their first - or next generation - Bluetooth Smart or ANT+ wireless
smartphone application accessories ('appcessories').

Ultra low power (ULP) RF specialist Nordic Semiconductor ASA (OSE: NOD) today
announces that with the launch of its ground-breaking nRF51 Series of System-on-Chips
(SoCs) it will embark on a Global Tech Tour in which a team of the company's top wireless
application technical experts will travel around the world to teach embedded systems
developers in just one day how to develop their first/next generation Bluetooth Smart or
ANT+ ULP wireless smartphone application accessory or 'appcessory' for short.
Each seminar is designed to beintensive, fun, and fully hands-on, and will include a
detailed technical walk-through starting from a ULP wireless sensor within an appcessory
through how it wirelessly connects to a smartphone and ending with how this all interfaces
to a developer's app running on the smartphone's operating system. The agenda will include
an overview of ULP wireless, Nordic's latest nRF51 Series SoCs, Bluetooth low energy
(including Bluetooth Smart) qualification, and a full afternoon of software development
application examples taken from Nordic's brand new nRF51 SDK (Software Development Kit)
which each participant will be able to take home free-of-charge.
"Each of these Global Tech Tour seminars is designed to be far more than a set of
presentations given in PowerPoint format," explains John Leonard, Tactical Marketing
Manager at Nordic Semiconductor. "They will be a genuine and unique opportunity for
smartphone app developers to kickstart their next Bluetooth Smart or ANT+ application
accessory within a single day with the help of some of the world's most experienced and
knowledgeable ULP wireless application engineers and system software architects."
