Newracom was at Sensors Converge in San Jose last week demoing our Wi-Fi HaLow solutions. Newracom was invited to demonstrate our smart retail and sensor network examples and promote Wi-Fi HaLow by Embedded Works, IoT & M2M Solutions Provider for Wireless Sensors. These demos were set up in a corner of Embedded Works Booth.

Sensors Converge 2022 is an event all about sensors and the embedded electronics that power applications and enable a variety of IoT solutions. Newracom was excited to be back in San Jose for this event and being able to connect with everyone in-person. As seeing is believing, the Newracom team shared some live demonstrations of our Wi-Fi HaLow technology in action on the show floor.
The first live demonstration was on smart retail on a small scale. It included four electronic shelf labels and 2 cameras sending photos every 5 seconds for monitoring inventory. This demo shows how pricing can be remotely updated and shelves constantly monitored using Wi-Fi HaLow. While this demo only contained six clients, Wi-Fi HaLow can support thousands of devices. For a larger scale retail demo, watch the Newracom 1000+ client device demo video with 630 electronic shelf labels and 370 digital displays, 2 sensor devices and 1 IP camera.
The second demo being shown was two long range, low power sensors monitoring temperature, humidity, and gyroscopic movements which were connected to a Wi-Fi HaLow access point. These kind of sensors could be used in IoT deployments for agriculture, industrial environments and smart building to provide environment data. Wi-Fi HaLow can send signals over one kilometer range and low power consumption makes it ideal solution for a large sensor network. In addition to the long range and low power, Wi-Fi HaLow offers faster data through put for the potential of sending video and images that makes it unique from competing LPWAN solutions like LoRa, LTE-M and NB-IoT.
These demonstrations help exemplify the features of Wi-Fi HaLow technology such as its low power consumption, long range of over a kilometer, and high enough speeds to transmit photos and video. All the while having the same networking and security standards of Wi-Fi.
