802.15.4 Protocols, Will ZigBee be King?

802.15.4 in general and Zigbee specifically has seen rapid adoption since 2004 to grow to almost 100 million devices shipped in 2012. The technology is now at a tipping point where it could continue to see strong growth driven by its ability to be used as an ultra-low power, low-cost, mesh networking technology in emerging markets across the Internet of Everything or see it relegated to a niche technology because of issues with interoperability and strong competition from other wireless technologies.

This study sets out three scenarios for 802.15.4 growth taking an optimistic, pessimistic, and realistic view of current the market dynamics and future growth prospects across 10 vertical markets.
