Modules are mainly used in aftermarket application like personal navigation devices, head units or
audio applications. These applications are typically Bluetooth BR/EDR only.
1.2.4 Healthcare and Medical
The healthcare and medical market offers a lot of possible application for Bluetooth BR/EDR and
Bluetooth Low Energy. Usage of Bluetooth is aimed mainly at devices that are used for monitoring
vital data. Typical devices are blood glucose meter, blood pressure cuffs and pulse ox meters.
Bluetooth BR/EDR and low energy were chosen by the Continua Health Alliance as transports for
interoperable end to end communication.
