Location-Tracking IoT Solution Streamlines
Customer Interactions and Improves Event ROI
Las Vegas, NV - January 5, 2017 - LoRa
Alliance members myDevices, the Internet of Things solutions
company; Senet, the first and fastest growing North American
provider of public, low-power, wide-area networks (LPWANs) for
long-range Internet of Things (IoT) applications built on the
LoRaWAN protocol; and STMicroelectronics (NYSE: STM), a global
semiconductor leader serving customers across the spectrum of
electronics applications, today announced that they have
collaborated to showcase demonstrations of the first real-time,
multi-target location tracking using the LoRaWAN low-power,
wide-area network (LPWAN) protocol along the Las Vegas Strip during
CES 2017.
Illustrating the ability to rapidly deploy commercial LPWAN and
the ease in which fully functional real-world IoT solutions can be
brought to market, this live, real-time demonstration is part of
STMicroelectronics' delivery of a personalized experience for their
customers and partners attending CES. Key components of the
demonstration include LoRaWAN-supported radio technology and
automotive-navigation chips from ST, custom application dashboards
from myDevices, and public LPWAN connectivity and services
delivered by Senet. CES attendees can view the demonstrations
at the myDevices IoT Creation Suite at Mandalay Bay and by
invitation only to ST's private demo suites.
"ST has enabled its STM32 microcontrollers and other relevant
components to operate on the LoRa network," said Bob Krysiak,
Executive Vice President Global Mass Market and Online Marketing
Programs and President Americas Region, STMicroelectronics. "ST's
leadership in Internet-of-things (IoT) solutions is enhanced by
partnerships with market pioneers like Senet and myDevices and
we're leveraging that technology strength during CES 2017 to show a
unique multi-target, LPWAN-based location-tracking
application."
LoRaWAN-supported radio technology: ST has integrated the
LoRaWAN network stack into its STM32 Cube firmware infrastructure
and will be installing its TESEO(TM) III automotive-navigation ICs
into limousines transporting guests to multiple CES event locations
around Las Vegas. GPS data will be converted to encrypted
packets sent to LoRaWAN-supported radios for location tracking.
Public low power wide area network: The commercially
available Senet network provides secure data transmission for the
CES demo and is fully operational now to support IoT application
development and commercial IoT solution rollouts throughout the Las
Vegas area. LPWANs based on the LoRaWAN protocol are unique
in their ability to handle devices in motion, making them the ideal
technology for asset tracking and other mobile IoT
applications. With broad experience in nationwide network
rollout and the resources for rapid expansion, Senet deployed fully
operational LPWAN coverage in Las Vegas in less than 30 days from
start to finish. View Senet's coverage map for commercial
deployments throughout North America.
"As proven by the rapid commercial rollout of our network in Las
Vegas, Senet is the only LPWAN operator able to deliver commercial
grade LPWAN services at a low cost and with speed and scale across
North America - ranging from 60 days or less for broad outdoor
coverage and as little as a few days to a few weeks for indoor
coverage," said Will Yapp, Vice President of Business Development
for Senet. "This collaboration with trusted partners ST and
myDevices is yet another example of how businesses can gain
valuable insights from actionable data that hasn't been available
until now."
IoT Application enablement: Leveraging the asset tracking
capabilities of myDevices' Cayenne IoT project builder, individuals
can visualize real-time and historical sensor data to display the
locations of the limousines transporting guests. Within the context
of this demo, the ability to examine and visualize data for
business insight will help STMicroelectronics maximize its return
on investment at CES.
"STMicroelectronics and Senet are members of our IoT Ready
Program which enables device manufacturers and connectivity
providers to integrate their products and services directly inside
our Cayenne IoT Project Builder. Over 100,000 Cayenne developers
can now drag-and-drop Senet and ST products and services directly
into their IoT projects." said Kevin Bromber, CEO of myDevices.
"The collaboration involved with developing this real-time location
tracking demonstration illustrates the speed in which partners
within the LoRa Alliance can easily prototype and deploy complete
IoT enterprise solutions. Our goal is to offer an offer an
on-ramp for developers to quickly prototype and deploy real IoT and
LoRaWAN solutions."

About Senet, Inc.
Senet, a contributing member of the
LoRa Alliance(TM), is the first and only public provider
in North America of low-power, wide-area networks (LPWANs) with its
class-leading LoRa modulation for IoT/M2M applications. LPWANs
enable value-driven solutions that can unlock immediate ROI by
enabling devices to connect over very long ranges (approximately 15
miles) while delivering very long battery power life (approximately
10 years) for an extremely low total cost of ownership. For
applications that require low cost, low power, and long range, the
secure Senet network has distinct advantages over cellular, Wi-Fi,
and other emerging connectivity technologies for the IoT market.

About LoRa Alliance
The LoRa Alliance(TM) is an open, non-profit association that
has grown to more than 330 members since its inception in March
2015, becoming one of the largest and fastest growing alliances in
the technology sector. Its members are closely collaborating and
sharing their experience to promote the LoRaWAN protocol as the
leading open global standard for secure, carrier-grade IoT LPWA
connectivity. With the technical flexibility to address multiple
IoT applications, both static and mobile, and a certification
program to guarantee interoperability, the LoRaWAN is already being
deployed by major mobile network operators and is anticipated to
widely expand in 2016.
About LoRaWAN
The technology utilized in a LoRaWAN(TM) network is designed to
connect low-cost, battery-operated sensors over long distances in
harsh environments that were previously too challenging or cost
prohibitive to connect. With its unique penetration capability, a
LoRaWAN gateway deployed on a building or tower can connect to
sensors more than 10 miles away or to water meters deployed
underground or in basements. The LoRaWAN protocol offers unique and
unequaled benefits in terms of bi-directionality, security,
mobility and accurate localization that are not addressed by other
LPWAN technologies. These benefits will enable the diverse use
cases and business models that will enable deployments of large
scale LPWAN IoT networks globally.
