Telecom Leader Myriota Introduces Satellite IoT Developer Platform
The hardware is known as FlexSense, and allows swift development and deployment of sensor-based and tracking solutions.
Myriota, a global telecommunications leader in field-generated intelligence, has unveiled FlexSense, a cutting-edge hardware platform tailored for developers to create sophisticated sensor-based IoT solutions.
FlexSense boasts advanced Bluetooth Low Energy and multi-sensor capabilities, driven by Myriota’s low-power satellite connectivity. With the ability to run on four AA batteries, FlexSense applications can operate for a staggering 10+ years.
In an industry-first, FlexSense allows providers to develop and deploy IoT tracking and sensing solutions within months instead of years. Myriota claims Installation is quick and easy, with operational readiness in mere minutes. The platform offers a code-free interface, plus features such as location tracking and monitoring of humidity, pressure, temperature, and vibration.
The FlexSense device features an IP67-rated, UV-resistant enclosure, capable of withstanding temperatures from -30°C to +70°C (-22°F to 158°F). It includes a preinstalled 3-meter cable with versatile sensor interfaces, including analog, digital, serial, and I2C, making it ideal for demanding real-world field trials.
Ben Cade, Myriota CEO, said: “With FlexSense, we redefine the IoT landscape, making it easier than ever before for developers to design and deploy IoT solutions that work anywhere. The technology works seamlessly with a variety of sensors, meaning our partners can rapidly customize the hardware to meet their unique specifications across a wide range of use cases”.
