MORE ABOUT Wireless

This is a submission from Rutronik about the ultra-low power multi-protocol wireless SoCs and modules of Redpine Signals’ RS9116 family. The RS9116 family is featuring an internal protocol arbitration manager, who manages the protocols dual band (2.4 and 5GHz) 802.11 a/b/g/n, 802.11j, dual-mode Bluetooth 5 and 802.15.4 for Thread and ZigBee®.

In 2014, Onion Corp. set out to develop a small, wireless hardware development platform specifically for software developers. In just four years, the company has launched three remarkably successful crowdfunding campaigns featuring products that appeal to wide range of innovators with diverse skill sets from makers and pro engineers.

IoT computing modules are in high demand. In 2014, Onion Corp. set out to develop a small, wireless hardware development platform specifically for software developers.

This video shows how to establish a peer-to-peer wireless LoRa communication. With a simple example based on Arduino, it explains how to update the data from a DHT11 temperature and humidity sensor to the ThingSpeak cloud. Before being able to send data from sensors to a cloud server, a beginning developer may need targeted assistance to quickly learn LoRa and IoT technology. That's why Elektor has chosen the new Dragino LoRa IoT Development Kit. Soon you too will turn your ideas into practical applications on the Internet of your own Things.

Pycom is a young company producing small modules supporting multiple network topologies. Partly funded through a few Kickstarter campaigns they are now up and running. The goal of their products is to enable easy access to the Internet of Things (IoT). To achieve this goal they have crammed as much wireless network technology as possible into a few small modules and made them programmable with MicroPython.

The Wi-Fi Alliance has rolled out Wi-Fi HaLow as the designation for products incorporating IEEE 802.11ah technology. The new standard operates in frequency bands below one gigahertz, offering longer range, lower power connectivity to Wi-Fi certified products.

Control your lights at home, your LEGO Robots and many other wireless projects with the Pretzelboard, a low cost yet powerful easy-to-use IoT WiFi-Board, offering a versatile learning and teaching platform. It nicely combines an Arduino NANO and an ESP8266 Wi-Fi module. The Arduino IDE provides the simplest way of programming the board. As an example, this video shows how to use a Pretzelboard in your wireless home network.

eRIC Nitro features an ATmega328 AVR microcontroller with Arduino bootloader and a low-power eRIC radio module operating in the ISM band (433 MHz with eRIC4, 868 or 915 MHz with eRIC9). The MCU and radio module can work together or independently, giving you two powerful microcontrollers on a 2.5x5 cm board. The original board is part of an Internet connected weather station by Alex Robertson. It was the winning project of the LPRS contest.

During the 2015 ARM TechCon in Santa Clara, California, Atmel Corporation has unveiled their first evaluation board based on the ARM mbed IoT Platform. With this board they join other major microcontroller manufacturers that support, or should we say, are supported by? mbed.

Atmel has announced that it will be implementing Intel's Enhanced Privacy ID (EPID) technology on all of its SmartConnect wireless solutions. The move will provide mutual authentication between the IoT node and the cloud. Intel EPID is an ISO standard digital signature...
