Apple's Latest Acquisition Points to Future Wearable Gadgets

Apple-sign

Apple recently acquired a small company that specializes in designing communications chips that use very little power, Passif Semiconductor. The purchase gives Apple more resources to tap for its venture into wearable computing, which appears inevitable.


The acquisition, first reported by tech reporter Jessica Lessin, happened in "recent months." Passif, founded by two Ph.D. students from the University of Berkeley, worked on developing chips with radios that consume very little power and work with the Bluetooth Smart (a.k.a 4.0 and Low Energy) standard.
