Beacons most improving tech gadget that used to connect Smartphones and make new opportunity to networking, Iot, Automation fields. But there is huge hole in open source beacon access. New Startup ruuvi innovate funded tech gadget for it. comparing to the iBeacon from Apple and Google Eddystone specifications this beacon contain Temperature,humidity, air pressure and acceleration sensors in open source platform.
This Beacon is powered with superior antenna design. Better antenna design means less power consumption to transmit and detect. this beacon save its battery life for nearly 10 years. and in open air this device can transmit nearly 1Km.
“RuuviTag is IoT for everyone. There are many traditional beacon providers out there but the market needs more open-source IoT sensor solutions. That’s why we have released all our hardware design and software codes to the public.” says Lauri Jämsä, CEO of Ruuvi Innovations. “During the design process many world-leading Internet-of-Things pioneers gave valuable feedback to our development team. We’re thankful to Nordic Semiconductor and Google’s Physical Web team for their support of our project.”
Here Some features of RuuviTag;
- Easy, standalone use: the devices can be used without any preinstalled apps.
- Eddystone certified: RuuviTag is checked for full Eddystone support by Google engineers.
- Arduino compatible: the software is compatible with Arduino’s recently announced IoT platform, Arduino Primo.
- Multiple Sensors: to measure temperature, relative humidity, air pressure, altitude and acceleration.
- Bluetooth 5 ready: the new Bluetooth release quadruples range, doubles speed, increases data broadcasting capacity by 800% and brings Bluetooth mesh networking to reality.
- NFC (NearFieldCommunication) support.
- Sleek design.
- 100% OpenSource (both hardware and software).
- A calculated battery lifetime of up to 10 years.
