For Bayer AG's Crop Protection Innovation Lab, 1NCE is providing global cellular connectivity for automatic pest detection in canola fields.

MQTT, CoAP and LwM2M: An important factor for the energy consumption of an IoT device is the volume of data that is transmitted with each communication. The more data, the longer the device must remain active and the greater the power consumption. Choosing the right communication protocol can save a lot of energy.

The traditional SIM card, the physical chip that must be inserted into a mobile device, is also used in IoT devices. However, as new IoT use cases arise, the limitations of the physical IoT SIM mean newer forms of SIM, such as IoT eSIM and IoT iSIM will become prominent. We explain the differences.

1NCE Developer Hub: From now on you will find detailed code examples in the "Recipes" section, in which we describe step by step how to use devices, systems and the 1NCE API.

There are many ways to extend battery lifetime in cellular networks. PSM and eDRX are only two of them. In our multiple part blog series, we want to take a closer look on how developers can get the maximum runtime out of their devices and where to expect obstacles.

1NCE OS IoT Integrator: Using the right communication protocol on NB-IoT and LTE-M can significantly enhance battery life. Our test showed: With CoAP and binary translation, energy consumption can be reduced by up to 75.3 percent.

NB-IoT vs. LTE-M: What are the strengths of each technology? For which areas of application are they best suited? We give answers.

The corona pandemic has given a further boost to digitization. The time has never been better to develop new and clever IoT solutions now. But beware, successful IoT projects need good planning. The subject is complex, but the key to success lies in simplicity.

Building IoT solutions and services requires not only a well-developed and functioning technology stack including sensors, connectivity, and data management platforms. It also needs a sound and customer-oriented business model to deliver value to IoT customers and providers.

Companies that are only just beginning to make their way into the Internet of Things will find dependable supporters in IoT specialists such as the Hamburg start-up Lobaro.
