## Summary

Deepal Mehta, Senior Director of Business Development at InnoPhase IoT, explains how the company uses proprietary RF technology to reduce Wi-Fi power consumption by 2-4x, enabling battery-powered IoT devices like cameras to achieve over a year of battery life. He discusses the shift from tethered to untethered devices, the necessity of ultra-low-power Wi-Fi for edge AI and Matter protocol interoperability, and the importance of system-level integration involving ISPs, MCUs, and cloud connectivity. Mehta highlights that while Wi-Fi 6 and multi-band support are future trends, InnoPhase's current focus is on delivering complete, high-volume manufacturable solutions with regulatory approval to help developers overcome power and complexity hurdles.
