Today Proxidyne, a leader in Internet of Things (iOT) sensors and sensor management, released a revolutionary device to connect iOT sensors to LoRaWAN networks, extending the range of iOT sensors to over 15 km. LoRaWAN is a Low-Power Wide-Area Network (LPWAN) optimized for machine-to-machine (MTM) communications.The Proxidyne LoRa Sensor Node detects changes in Proxidyne sensors (or any iBeacon-compatible device) and sends back that information to a LoRaWAN network, a long range iOT network.
The Proxidyne Sensor Node has integrated Bluetooth LE and LoRaWAN radios to connect Proxidyne sensors or iBeacon-enabled devices to a LoRaWAN network. Sensor include Proxidyne Wireless Buttons, Proxidyne Motion Sensor, Proxidyne Wearable Beacons or any iBeacon-compatible device. The Proxidyne LoRa Sensor Node supports hundreds of sensors communicating to a LoRaWAN network over the long range communication link.
