\"\"<\/p>\n

Our stand\u00a0at IoT Thames Valley Meetup<\/p>\n

Here’s what happened with a few insights from the presentations:<\/p>\n

Richard Fargus, Managing Director, Voytech Systems<\/a> spoke about ‘Commercial Deployment of IoT solutions in Building Monitoring<\/em>
\nand Control’<\/em>. He mentioned how, using TCPI\/IP over cellular is very inefficient. For example, 2 bytes of data can balloon up to 5000 to 1000 bytes which can be costly.<\/p>\n

Richard Kinder<\/a>, VP, Head of Product Marketing, Wirepas<\/a> covered ‘Industrial IoT requires fit for purpose connectivity’. He spoke about wireless mesh networking. He mentioned how increasing the Lora power in an urban environment gives negligible improvement in range.<\/p>\n

Nick Baker, Director, Adaptive Wireless Solutions<\/a> gave ‘Wireless IoT – lessons learned from industrial implementations’. He spoke about 2.4GHz mesh networks used for various clients. He emphasied the need for solutions to be reliable and easy to implement. He also mentioned (the recurring theme) that there’s no one vertical market or solution.<\/p>\n

Richard Foggie<\/a>, Executive Knowledge Transfer Network<\/a>, spoke about IoT networking and funding opportunities from the Government KTN.<\/p>\n

Mike Bartley, CEO T&VS<\/a> gave a talk on ‘Avoiding the Internet of Insecure Things’ via test and certification.<\/p>\n

Leonard Anderson<\/a>, Kemuri Limited<\/a>, presented his IoT Power Sockets.<\/p>\n

Graham Kitteridge<\/a> gave a lightening talk on Think Engineer<\/a>, who create custom hardware prototypes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
