In this article, we will be detecting a forest fire using an IoT sensor network and making a portable device with battery operation. Getting information about a fire hazard in a forest in time can prevent the forest fire from spreading. The sensor network can give the particular location of the fire as we already…
How LoRa enables long-range communication
LoRa (Long Range) is a type of wireless communication technology designed to send information over long distances with low power consumption. It uses a special technique called chirp spread spectrum (CSS) modulation, which operates by continuously changing the frequency of a transmitted signal over time. This varying frequency generates a waveform (resembling the sound of…
What are the top technologies enabling M2M in 2023?
In today’s digital world, machine-to-machine (M2M) is quickly becoming standard. M2M includes any technology that enables networked devices to exchange data or information. It can be wired or wireless, but the Internet of things (IoT) has made such wireless communication between devices commonplace. The interconnected of things has also made these devices intelligent. Consider how…
The top IoT platforms of 2023
There are nearly 15.14 billion Internet of Things (IoT) devices active so far this year. That number is expected to double to 29.42 billion by 2030. Examples include wearables, smart-home and office devices, as well as automotive, medical, and industrial devices. More than 90% are connected to one another or a Cloud platform. Today, Cloud…
