Senet, a provider of cloud-based software, global connectivity service platforms and network buildout for the Internet of Things (IoT), and NanoThings, a full service IoT logistics solution provider and pioneer of advancements in nano electronics to enable a new era of affordability in IoT devices, has announced a partnership to disrupt the logistics industry with the introduction of NanoThings´ LoRa®-powered NanoTagâ„¢ technology, the company said.
NanoThings´ patent pending NanoTags are the world´s first and only Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) enabled disposable environmental sensors. Thinner than a credit card and powered by ultra-thin, non-toxic batteries, NanoTags are bridging the gap between Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags and cellular-based asset trackers. Combining the affordability and a small form factor of NanoThings´ NanoTags with ubiquitous long range LoRaWANâ„¢ network connectivity from Senet will help accelerate the proliferation of logistics, shipping, asset tracking, cold chain and compliance reporting applications that have yet to be widely adopted due to previously prohibitive hardware, infrastructure and network connectivity costs.
Senet´s IoT network connectivity platforms and services allow sensor-based solution companies like NanoThings to ensure interoperability and quality of service in large-scale commercial deployments, and enable solution providers to expand their service offerings beyond traditional areas of operation. For supply chain and logistics operators this means having Low Power Wide Area Network connectivity where and when it is needed, the opportunity for regional expansion and productivity enhancements and cost savings at almost every step in the process.
NanoThings´ defining belief is that until now, connected logistics solutions have been overly complex and expensive. It is this philosophy which inspired NanoThings´ minimalist approach to connected hardware. Through countless hours of painstaking innovation, NanoThings´ patent pending NanoTagâ„¢ is finally bringing a scalable, cost-effective solution to an eager market. And by integration with LoRa network streaming and services, NanoTagsâ„¢ offer real-time insights to their sensor data available via NanoThings´ cloud-based platform.
