Semtech’s LoRa Technology Leveraged in YoSmart’s Internet of Things Applications for Enterprise and Commercial Buildings
January 9, 2019
LoRa Technology’s proven ability to handle many sensors in a dense
environment make it ideal for large smart building networks
LAS VEGAS–(BUSINESS WIRE)–CES – Semtech
Corporation (Nasdaq: SMTC), a leading supplier of high performance
analog and mixed-signal semiconductors and advanced algorithms,
announced that YoSmart,
a high-tech enterprise company focused on smart home and life products,
is integrating Semtech’s LoRa®
devices and wireless radio frequency technology (LoRa Technology)
into its new line of products for enterprise and commercial smart
building Internet of Things (IoT) applications.
“YoSmart provides large buildings like campuses and hotels with flexible
solutions to maximize efficiency,” said John Xu, Chief Executive Officer
at YoSmart. “Semtech’s LoRa Technology provides IoT connectivity in
large, dense environments where hundreds of connected devices need to be
managed independently. This allows managers to make better choices,
leading to more efficient energy use and lower energy costs.”
YoSmart’s newest series of LoRa-enabled products include thermostats,
sprinkler controllers, door locks, leakage monitors, and smoke alarms.
These devices connect to a building’s network and allow consistent,
remote monitoring to better conserve energy and predict when maintenance
is necessary, saving property managers money. LoRa Technology is the
proven solution of choice for smart buildings due to the ease of
deploying solutions, and scalability of applications with the
exponential capacity for additional sensors. LoRa Technology has the
capacity to function in high density environments, such as in large
enterprise buildings or campuses, and can handle thousands of unique
messages per day.
“Semtech’s LoRa Technology’s scalability and capability to penetrate
dense building materials make it an ideal platform for IoT-connected
smart home and building applications, no matter how large,” said Vivek
Mohan, Director of IoT for Semtech’s Wireless and Sensing Products
Group. “Semtech’s LoRa Technology for enterprise buildings can connect
many different applications under the same network – from thermostats to
security systems. This allows for convenient oversight by the property
managers, and smarter solutions to cut down on expenses due to utility
waste or maintenance.”
Semtech and YoSmart will be demonstrating LoRa-based solutions at CES
Las Vegas from January 8-10, 2019.
