The Internet of Things

Any electronic ‘thing’ that communicates with the internet can be described as an IoT device. However, the term is mostly used to describe single-function devices, and in the specific case of Telemonitron, it generally refers to sensors (often placed outdoors) or smart power metering devices (for use indoors).

Telemonitron’s Broad Spectrum of IoT Devices

Telemonitron has developed IoT devices that range from very low-power flood monitors with a multi-year battery autonomy to gateway devices with a fairly heavy payload. We have used a broad variety of radio frequency communication technologies: Sigfox, NB-IoT, LoRa, GSM, wifi, Bluetooth, ZigBee, 6LoWPAN, as well as a selection of wired technologies. 

Tailored Solutions for Every Need

Every IoT application comes with its own unique set of requirements and challenges. Some have heavy payload requirements, while others need only report a few bytes a day or week. Most communicate in one direction only, while others are individually accessible. Some may be called upon to operate indoors, while others are placed in very inhospitable and hard-to-access locations. Some have no issue with available power, while others need to operate on a very tight power budget. Certain devices require precise location information (GNSS/GPS), while others can work with the rough estimates of signal triangulation or do not require any location information at all. 

Telemonitron evaluates each application separately, selects the appropriate communication solution and then develops the product.
