The DNA of IoT: Delivering Real ROI for Smart Parking and Intelligent Building Applications
Abstract:

Sensor up everything, and get the data from wherever you are collecting it into your application software so better decisions can be made. The reality isn’t quite so simple though. There are many different use cases, each with their own unique requirements. To truly leverage the value of IoT and deliver real ROI, it’s necessary to provide complete solutions that are optimized for the entire IoT solution, including the hardware Devices, the Network connectivity and the Application software. In other words, the DNA of IoT. For market applications like Smart Parking and Intelligent Buildings, requiring battery operated devices and low total cost of ownership, LoRaWAN™ based solutions are a great option
