LoRaWAN Can Connect All India To Bring Smart Cities Here Soon

IoT, aka The Internet of Things, is the future of almost everything. Its positive impact can be seen in quite many fields, including home devices, agriculture, smart cities, and even industries as shown in how they have been improved.

And LoRaWAN will take us there.

Low-range wide area networks, the full name for LoRaWAN, are one crucial factor we can use to optimize IoT. Although IoT can be used on a large scale, it is now most applied in networks and smaller devices. And to broaden the use scale of IoT, we need to upgrade memory, long range connectivity and battery life. Hence, current technologies cannot meet this requirement.

Meanwhile, LoRaWAN comes with 5-10-year battery life, bring to us the connection over multi kilometers. As a result, we can take this advantage and use IoT to enable not only smart cities but also smart countries. IoT can be implemented in various fields that can be linked all together across nations.

Last week, at the Things Conference, LoRaWan took the spot light and became the hottest topic to be discussed. The conference suggested that India could be the pioneer to conduct this change. The Things Conference was held by CyberEye, a technology firm. This time, the event is where IoT and LoRaWan pioneers gathered, with the addition of corporates and leader from all over the world.

Ram Ganesh, the CEO of CyberEye tech firm, spoke at the event that India had a great deal of potentials and it’s about time it light up the change. He also expressed his belief in India’s capability to create wonders if it is handed just the exact type of technology it needs.

If India really grabs this chance and take the lead, there’s no telling what potentials it can unlock. May be a few years from now, we will be living and working smart cities right here in India.
