Asthmapolis, makers of a sensor that tracks the use of inhalers, won an award in the Bluetooth Special Interest Group’s inaugural Bluetooth Breakthrough Award competition, the company announced Tuesday.

The global trade association for Bluetooth technology named Asthmapolis its winner in the Product Category, while Swissmed Mobile (Application Category) and Tethercell (Prototype Category) also won.

“The winners of the Bluetooth Breakthrough Awards are extraordinary in that they take an every day product, like a battery or an inhaler, and make it smarter,” Suke Jawanda, CMO of Bluetooth SIG, said in a statement. “Asthmapolis is redefining what is possible with wireless connectivity–making asthma management more convenient, smarter and better with Bluetooth.”

According to Asthmapolis, its sensor syncs with smartphones using the phone’s Bluetooth technology. An accompanying app educates users on ways to improve their asthma control.

“It is an honor to take home this prize in the Bluetooth Breakthrough Product Category, particularly since it is awarded by the Bluetooth SIG–fellow innovators who are pushing the envelope with Bluetooth technologies in ways that will change the future of healthcare,” David Van Sickle, CEO and founder of Asthmapolis, said in a statement.
