IoT

According to independent research commissioned by Inmarsat, energy companies will struggle to derive the maximum value from the Internet of Things (IoT) without access to radically improved, reliable, high-speed connectivity. The study found that while the overwhelming majority of energy companies are in the process of deploying or developing IoT solutions, low rates of connectivity are preventing them from realising the full benefits that I...

Kerlink and Stream Technologies has announced the integration of their solutions to provide simple, end-to-end LoRaWANTM connectivity solutions for their expanding international customer bases. The two companies, which established their partnership in August 2015, have integrated IoT-X and Kerlink’s complete portfolio of gateways, ranging from indoor WirnetTM iFemtoCell, to carrier-grade outdoor WirnetTM Stations, and geolocation-ready...

The IoT hub contains a variety of IoT news items and feature stories, case studies, products, and interviews, as well as technical articles exploring the possibilities of IoT applications.

  Critical data from oneM2M’s successful smart city deployments will be used in the WISE-IoT Consortium’s IoT4Tourism Hackathon. The Hackathon will be held at the IEEE ICCE Berlin Conference, in conjunction with the IFA consumer electronics fair, which will be held on 3rd-4th September 2017.

  As everyone is probably tired of hearing, the Internet of Things is supposed to connect everyone with everything connectable, everywhere. So far, there's been little tangible evidence of this, as it's being driven initially not by consumers but by industrial, government and other applications that are more difficult to spot.

  Provider of machine-to-machine (M2M) and Internet of Things (IoT) connectivity products and services, Digi International has announced the immediate availability of the Digi XBee SX 868, a Surface Mount (SMT) radio communication module with interference blocking for noisy wireless environments.

IoT modules, embedded and device gateway solutions will be available for immediate shipment worldwide as a result of a new distribution agreement between Lantronix and Digi-Key.
