Embodiments of the invention provide for a sensor system with enhanced low-power features. Embodiments can include transmission of sensor data from a transmitter unit to a receiver unit. The sensor data can flag the sensor data with a particular header ID, enabling the receiver unit to route the sensor data to a low-power processing unit within the receiver unit without using the receiver unit's higher-power application processer. Embodiments can also utilize a proprietary encryption engine to provide a supplementary encryption layer to any encryption utilized in the wireless protocol. The transmitter unit can also compress and batch the sensor data for sending, to further increase power savings.
