"The long range networking capabilities of LoRaWAN enable simple
and effective IoT applications that provide safe, secure and
connected classrooms during these uncertain times,” said Zhang
Weibin, IoT Operation Director at Sundray. “Educational
institutions can take advantage of the proven flexibility of
LoRaWAN and realize the benefits of unified smart campus
management.”
With the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak, schools, universities and
other institutions worldwide are increasingly seeking to integrate
technologies that create safer and smarter campuses for its student
populations. In China, these sentiments are echoed by the
government, which recently developed the GB/T 36342-2018 Standard
requiring increased data collection on campus processes and
promoting the development of new technologies for flexible learning
in and out of the classroom. Sundray developed its SDC solution to
enable compliance with government standards and allow the quick
connection of new smart campus applications under a single unified
network. The IoT platform leverages the LoRaWAN protocol’s
interoperability functionality and Semtech’s LoRa® devices to
support many third party devices and thousands of sensors per
gateway. Several applications currently utilize the SDC platform to
promote safer learning spaces, including classroom occupancy,
equipment usage, temperature monitoring, door and window locks, and
air quality sensors. Additional applications include those for the
efficient use of teaching resource assets such as projectors and
smart boards.
To date, Sundray’s SDC platform is used by more than 20,000
educational professionals across China, including those at leading
institutions such as Southeast University, Nanjing University of
Aeronautics and Astronautics, Beijing University of Posts and
Telecommunications, Guangzhou Tieyi Middle School, Huainan No.2
Middle School, and Fuzhou Jinshan Middle School.
"As an leader in the LoRaWAN ecosystem, Sundray’s new SDC
platform creates innovative smart campus solutions by not only
enabling compliance with new government policies, but also
significantly promoting safer, flexible teaching and classroom
practices,” said Mike Wong, Vice President of China Sales at
Semtech. “Solutions based on the LoRaWAN protocol, enabled by
Semtech’s LoRa devices, allow universities and other learning
institutions to quickly bring its processes online by providing
reliable connectivity across large campuses with minimal
infrastructure cost. Accurate condition monitoring helps classrooms
provide the safest environment possible so staff and students can
focus on learning rather than health concerns."
