Open?[edit]
ANT is a proprietary and closed system and the link in the beginning is not correct. There is nothing open about ANT —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.50.173.230 (talk) 14:24, 19 July 2010
- That would be "open" as in open systems (which is already linked to in the article), not open source or to some extinct open standards. --Heb (talk)
- Well, Definition of open systems is that they shall rely on Open Standards (if relevant). ANT standards are only available to Alliance members and thus NOT open. 92.204.100.174 (talk) 12:06, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
What does "ANT" stand for?[edit]
Is the "ANT" here an acronym for something (usual when something is capitalised)? I know the company itself is called ANT as well. Perhaps needs an explanation in there somewhere. Jimthing (talk) 17:34, 16 September 2013 (UTC)
Is ANT+ is really ANT-?[edit]
The opening says this:"ANT+[1] (pronounced ant plus) is a sub-system"
I'm unsure of what sub-system means in this context, but it suggests sub-set. Is a device that is ANT-compatible also ANT+ compatible? And might a device that is ANT+ compatible be incompatible with some ANT devices? Captain Puget (talk) 17:55, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
To answer my own question, the ANT (no plus) article says "ANT+ is an interoperability function that can be added to the base ANT protocol."
This (ANT+) article appears to be redundant and perhaps misleading. Captain Puget (talk) 18:01, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
The article could really use to distinguish the difference between ant and +. From the article I assume that + is the standardization of data fields for specific profiles, but who knows??? Mountainlogic (talk) 20:42, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
