“Our primary focus remains the manufacturing and sale of our low-power wireless sensor modules,” said NeoCortec CEO Thomas Steen Halkier. “However, by introducing a licensing model for our software stack, customers can implement our software in their designs to gain the advantages of NeoMesh in their specific applications. Furthermore, we will provide technical support to assist with the implementation of our software.”
The protocol and stack support a variety of sensor types and applications, and ICs from Texas Instruments, Nordic Semiconductor, Silicon Labs, STMicroelectronics and Semtech.
NeoMesh is optimised for networks with many low-power sensor and actuator nodes – thousands can be accommodated – that only need to send and receive small packets of data, infrequently, with high reliability. Its protocol allows data packet aggregation to cut power-per-transported-packet.
Networks configure dynamically and can self-heal.
No mains-powered routers or repeaters are required – years of operation from AA batteries is claimed.
