Achieving Ultra Low-Power IoT Beyond the Protocol

As IoT adoption accelerates toward massive-scale deployments, the demand for ultra low-power operation has shifted from a desirable feature to a business-critical requirement. Battery-powered devices are expected to operate for years without intervention, yet the economic reality is unforgiving: truck rolls, premature battery failures, and shortened device lifespans can quickly erode the viability of IoT business cases.

Eseye streamlines IoT deployment with connectivity management from Thales

Over the past two decades, the smartphone has transformed our world. Now, the IoT (Internet of Things) is set to have an equally profound impact. GSMA Intelligence forecasts the number of licensed cellular IoT connections will reach 5.8 billion globally by 2030, up from 3.5 billion in 2023. Use cases such as smart metering and the connected car are already part of everyday life for millions of people.

Simplifying IoT deployments with Thales Adaptive Connect

The IoT (Internet of Things) revolution is here. Innovative use cases are being deployed at speed in both the consumer and industrial domains, with much more to come. Sectors as diverse as agriculture, smart metering and remote healthcare are set to drive dramatic expansion in the IoT over the next decade and beyond.

How GSMA SGP. 32 is revolutionizing IoT connectivity

The IoT ecosystem is expanding at an unprecedented pace. According to GSMA Intelligence, the number of licensed cellular IoT connections is projected to reach 5.8 billion globally by 2030, up from 3.5 billion in 2023.

IoT Cybersecurity: Regulating the Internet of Things

2024 marks a turning point in the evolving landscape of IoT cybersecurity, with significant advancements in laws and regulations in the E.U., the U.S., and the U.K.

The rapid expansion of IoT technology has been matched by an increased focus on securing these devices against cyber threats. This year, significant regulatory milestones have been achieved, shaping how we approach IoT cybersecurity.

The Ultimate Guide to Connected Device Security

Six steps to secure products and software supply chains

Nearly 70% of organizations surveyed by the Linux Foundation report being very or extremely concerned about the security of the software they use. When that software powers critical infrastructure systems in sectors such as energy, telecom, or health care, the stakes to society rise high.

Single sourcing hardware, connectivity and RTK corrections simplifies precise positioning and accelerates time-to-market

Precise positioning down to the centimeter level underpins a new wave of IoT and connected applications. These range from consumer devices to advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and countless applications in professional markets from logistics to micromobility management in smart cities, as well as mining and agriculture. The challenge here is that precision is hard to achieve and relies on a blend of components, devices, cellular and satellite connectivity plus mastery of complex techniques to eliminate errors and enhance accuracy.

How fixed wireless access is erasing the digital divide

Fixed wireless access (FWA) is bridging the digital divide by connecting millions of previously unconnected people each month. Territories where access to connectivity has been challenging, such as rural communities in the US or the Empty Quarter in Saudi Arabia, can now be profitably served with connectivity via FWA.

Is 5G RedCap the right fit for your IoT connectivity needs?

With 2G and 3G networks sunsetting across the globe, there’s a need for a cost-effective cellular alternative to provide IoT devices with the connectivity they need. The new and expensive option of full 5G is impractical for many IoT use cases and in many markets, 5G network infrastructure is still not deployed. That will change over time as more networks are built and costs come down thanks to economies of scale but, for a substantial portion of the IoT market, full 5G simply isn’t necessary.

Why smart IoT modules are the enabler for advanced, intelligent edge device

A smart IoT module, as the name suggests, is a module that brings greater intelligence and capability to an IoT device than a single-function connectivity modem, for example.

Emerging security regulations for the Internet of Things

For many years, Internet of Things (or ‘IoT’) solutions that incorporate connected devic-es to support a range of monitoring and control applications have largely escaped the purview of regulators. Although such devices often existed in environments and con-texts that could be regulated, including regulated verticals (for example automotive, healthcare, critical infrastructure) and regulated contexts (for example, IoT solutions that might potentially impinge on consumer data protection regulations), the operations of IoT services have been typically at most indirectly regulated.

Driving Innovation: Harnessing The Power of Edge-AI and Computer Vision For a Better Road Experience

In recent years, the advent of computer vision (CV) systems has produced a transformative shift across applications as diverse as quality control on manufacturing lines, robotics and smart vehicle systems. Growing demand for CV capabilities has seen deployments of these technologies rise across multiple industries and verticals, with some of the most promising applications occurring in the automotive and autonomous vehicle industries.
