STMicroelectronics, a member of the board of the LoRa Alliance, and Objenious, a founding member of the LoRa Alliance, are working together to accelerate the connection of Internet of Things (IoT) nodes to LoRa networks. ST’s development kits certified on the Objenious network are available now, greatly reducing R&D effort and time to market in the creation of new LoRa devices.
LoRAWAN is a Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) based on LoRa technology that is opening up a world of possibilities to create networks of connected devices ideal to address a broad range of IoT applications. The benefits of LoRa especially suit applications where nodes have limited power capability, can be difficult to access, and data transfers don’t require high bandwidth. LoRa can target a wide spectrum of applications such as tracking, proactive maintenance, and many others. Industry analysts estimate there will be tens of billions of connected devices deployed in the world by 2020.
Objenious launched and operates the first LoRa network in France, with more than 4,200 antennas deployed around the country. Objenious now proposes its LoRa network, platform and services for LPWAN IoT to partners and customers locally and internationally thanks to roaming agreements.
With its broad portfolio of general-purpose and secure microcontrollers (MCUs) and sensors, along with analog, power, mixed-signal, and connectivity technologies, ST offers all ingredients for making connected devices for any application. By integrating Objenious’ network access software on top of the STM32 ODE, developing connected devices is easier, the company reported.
“The collaboration of STMicroelectronics and Objenious offers customers an opportunity to easily and quickly develop LPWAN-connected objects for the Objenious network, accelerating the business and the development of the IoT,” said Stéphane Allaire, CEO of Objenious.
