The XiOne Software Defined Radio has been designed around mobility, not only including the hardware but also a bundle of applications.
Just start-up XiOne and step into a new world of radio frequency applications without the need for special knowledge and therefore steep learning curves.
A huge frequency range from 100 kHz up to 1.7 GHz opens up a wide field of operations. For example the reception of worldwide short wave transmissions or the detection of ship as well as aircraft positions by receiving AIS and ADS-B Broadcasts.
There is no need to install special drivers because all interfaces are based on standard network protocols, so it is effortless to operate the device within all environments.
Simply connect via Wifi or Ethernet to the XiOne-Network or even use the USB-Port, which acts as a network interface too. The built-in router function actually allows parallel access to attached networks like the internet.
The XiOne has its own power supply allowing more than 2 hours of mobile usage, easily extendable with an external USB battery pack. In combination with dedicated smartphone or tablet Apps the solution becomes mobile, allowing to go into areas with very low radio interferences.
Beside of the already included extensive software bundle we would like to encourage the maker community to develop their own applications to continuously enhance XiOne’s capabilities. A well documented license free Application Programming Interface based on TCP and a Software Development Kit, including code examples, make it easy to start the integration of new applications. Develop your own open source or even commercial applications to be uploaded into the different mobile markets.
