Article #3 of the Enabling IoT Series. This article looks at how Time of Flight (ToF) sensors are used for this purpose and are changing the way we can interact with VR, and other video technologies.
Barcodes play a key role across industries for tasks like inventory management, asset tracking, and quality control, where traceability is required. OMRONs VHV5-F enables accurate barcode reading on every surface, from curved metals to glossy packaging, even in the harshest environments.
Understanding the signal names, numbering schemes, electrical limits and software control of the Raspberry Pi 5 general purpose input/output (GPIO) header empowers hardware and digital design engineers to build robust embedded solutions.
The Raspberry Pi Zero 2W features a quadcore 64 bit processor and builtin wireless in a tiny footprint. Its 40 pin header provides engineers with a flexible interface for embedded applications. This guide explores the theory behind the pinout and offers practical guidance for learners.
This latest revolution has introduced wirelessly-connected and -guided machinery, drones, sensors, AI and machine learning (ML), robotics, biotechnology and IoT-connected farms.

For now, at least, machines need humans as much as humans need machines. At this intersection, machine learning (ML) offers intriguing possibilities for managing the billions of end devices that comprise the IoT. ML is a practical, mathematical field.
When you start digging into the cellular connectivity world, it’s easy to get lost in the plethora of codes, identity numbers, acronyms, and what each is used for. For instance, what is an ICCID number? This is likely to be one of the first ID numbers you encounter on your journey.
Like many “as a Service” solutions, LoRaWAN Connectivity as a Service is a new approach to connectivity management that radically improves the user experience when creating a new IoT solution.
This video explains what "Connectivity as a Service" is and how to access it on akenza.io
Turning previously ‘dumb’ LED streetlighting ‘smart’ is one of the easiest cost-to-benefit propositions in smart city because it effectively pays for itself.
DECT NR+ (NR+) will be the first-ever, non-cellular wireless technology to become part of a cellular generation (“G”) standard, starting with 5G. It's also license-free and targets massive IoT applications targeting millions or billions of nodes.
IIoT stands for the Industrial Internet of Things. You've probably seen a similar set of letters, the IoT, which is the Internet of Things. IoT refers to all digitally-connected devices, over and above such familiar items as phones, tablets, laptops and PCs.
The cellular IoT technology, NB-IoT, is a leading LPWAN solution and offers up to a 15-kilometer range and low power consumption. It has been purpose-designed to conserve bandwidth and energy and has been shown to be an effective and robust solution.
