The document outlines a nationwide IoT network initiative aimed at enhancing community safety, particularly for vulnerable populations, through affordable connectivity. It details the development of multi-sensor boxes with customizable client software for data analysis and the establishment of a protocol-agnostic ecosystem that promotes data sharing without vendor lock-in. Additionally, the project includes virtual sensors for translating raw data and a centralized dashboard for alerting and notifications.
Long-Distance Battery-Powered Sensors for the IOT- SigFox
- 1. The first cellular network operator for the IoT
- 6. Topology Countrywide networks being installed around the world
- 7. SCALE: Safe Community Alerting Network “Democratizing safety by bringing the Internet of Things (IoT) to everyone”
- 9. Goals and Objectives • Demonstrate our ability to extend a connected safe home to everyone at a low incremental cost, regardless of income or ability (focus on vulnerable populations) • Identify suitable sensors/algorithms for detecting possible emergency/safety events,Jump-start a live testbed for research and identifying IoT challenges • Identify proper schemas for sensor data, test analytics and alerting workflows • Demonstrate the efficacy of an open data platform in connecting disparate systems with little to no coordination
- 10. SCALE multi-sensor boxes designed with off-the-shelf components: • Client software designed to easily incorporate new sensors with minimal programming effort, allowing easy customization of boxes • Client performs local analysis on data, publishing unusual events immediately as well as periodically updating readings • Sensor data transmitted through best available network medium • Plans to integrate mesh networking solutions for increased reliability Multi-networks and Multi-sensor Box
- 11. • DIME is a one-stop shop for sensor data and associated analytics • Publish-subscribe model: IoT devices exchange data and receive actionable messages via DIMEwithout coordinating directly with DIME maintainers • A New Data Ecosystem: Protocol-agnostic design avoids “vendor lock-in”; devices and people freely exchange data and analytics, building on the contributions made by others Middleware – Virtual Sensors and Data In Motion Exchange • Virtual sensors translate raw sensor streams to a semantically meaningful stream at a certain level – programming simplicity and flexibility • SCALE instantiates virtual sensors, performs analytics on data pulled from DIME, and publish observations to DIME
