At a glance
Definition
IoT devices enabling connectivity and data collection
Technologies
LPWAN modules (LoRa, NB-IoT) enable long-range, low-power connectivity. Edge AI processors run inference on the device. Energy harvesting extends battery life or eliminates batteries entirely. Mesh networking connects devices without direct cloud connectivity. OTA (over-the-air) updates maintain device software remotely.
Applications
Environmental sensors monitor air quality, temperature, and humidity in buildings. Asset trackers locate equipment and inventory across facilities. Water sensors detect leaks in buildings and infrastructure. Industrial sensors monitor equipment vibration and temperature.
Market and funding
The connected device market spans billions of deployed devices across industrial, commercial, consumer, and municipal applications.
