NB-IoT shields with Arduino header plus consulting, service and antenna design in support with a value of Euro 10000+ to win

Today the bunny will jump out of the heat. Next week at the embedded world you have a chance to win a Gold, Silver, Bronze and Student kit. The Student kit has a higher value than the Bronze kit. Students are our future. All kits together have a value of mare than Euro 10000. The […]

NB-IoT shield with Arduino header renamed to akorIoT

NB-IoT Shield Arduino

The idea for the NB-IoT shield with Arduino header was conceived in summer 2016. We then produced the first version of the NB-IoT shield at the M2M Summit in September 2016. The second generation was shown to readers of my IoT/M2M Cookbook in our end of the year mailing and it has proved extremely popular; we […]

HARdunio – Arduino footprint NB-IoT shield update

Arduino shield with NB-IoT module

We have extensively tested the HARduino board over the past few days. We have been testing the GSM version due to the lack of NB-IoT coverage in the region of our office in the North of Germany but both NB-IoT and GSM exhibit the same characteristics in the tests we carried out. The AT command set […]

World’s first free and open IoT out of the box with NB-IoT module with Arduino header

NB-IoT-LTE-Cat-NB1-M1-Arduino-Shield

Many IoT / M2M Cookbook customers asked me for an evaluation kit within the last two years. I launched the first version during M2M Summit in September 2016. In February 2017 the multicellular version came true. The working name is HARduino because it has an Arduino R3 compatible UART interface. HARALD – ALD + duino […]

NB-IoT and band 70 – What is your opinion?

Radio wave lambda

RF engineers already know that signal propagation characteristics vary according to frequency. In simple terms, signals carried at lower frequencies travel further. Since wavelength equals the speed of light divided by the period of the carrier signal, we can see that low frequency signals have a long wavelength. Long wavelength, low frequency radio waves are […]

When pigeons tweet – birds in IoT

Pigeons wearing wireless pollution-monitoring devices will report back via Twitter

Pigeons don’t tweet, they make cooing noises. They don’t wear backpacks either. Usually. Well, say hello to the new breed of backpack wearing, tweeting pigeons that might just save lives.   If you live in a city there’s a good chance you’ll be sharing it most days with a large number of pigeons. And generally […]

400 students have already enrolled at the IoT-University

Direction in LPWAN

The IoT-University was launched just one month ago. In just four weeks there are more than 400 students on the course. Students want to learn and to educate them we need more mentors who love to share; we have space for eight more to join us. If you have something to share, join us. Become […]
