About LoRaWAN Technology
LoRa, or Long Range, is a wireless modulation technique derived from Chirp Spread Spectrum (CSS) technology. It encodes information on radio waves using chirp pulses – similar to the way dolphins and bats communicate!
LoRaWAN, or Long Range Wide Area Network, is a wireless communication protocol designed for low-power, long-range communication between devices in the Internet of Things (IoT). LoRaWAN® is an international, open radio standard, which is managed by the LoRa AllianceTM.
Bluebot leverages LoRaWAN bidirectional communication, a high level of security through modern encryption technologies and low energy demands to enable efficient and cost-effective connectivity, making it ideal for applications like homes, smart buildings, cities and agriculture as well as industrial IoT.
