A new technology by CSR was recently presented at a medical conference in Luxembourg. This new technology is CSR's Ultra Low Power Bluetooth silicon. According to the company, their ULP Bluetooth silicon consumes 10 percent less power than standard Bluetooth silicon does. The demonstration revealed that the ULP Bluetooth silicon can transfer data 50 times faster than regular Bluetooth connections can. This technology is previously known as Wibree. This means devices will be connected at much shorter spans of time than those who use regular Bluetooth technology, and hence, energy is saved.

The ULP Bluetooth technology is expected to run for ten years on a single cell battery. In perspective, this means Bluetooth devices equipped with the technology have battery lifespan which are measured in years as opposed to the days and months given as length of battery life for today's gadgets.
