Building a multi-protocol gateway with App, Data, and Cloud service features
Needs a location
Details
Almost three years ago, a diverse set of partners across Europe started a collaboration, merging their know-how and expertise, to bring about change in IoT.
There was a not-so-simple problem to solve, and one that raised many interesting questions: “How can we enable IoT device/sensor vendors, innovative SMEs, as well as IoT makers/tinkerers, to deliver their products and hobbyist solutions faster, with out-of-the-box security, Cloud service support and protocol interoperability faster to their markets?”
Today, the AGILE gateway is a reality. It is supported by the 14 partners involved in the project directly, but also a variety of credible organizations across the globe.
In this Virtual IoT, some of the project core partners, FBK, Resin.io and BioAssist, share their stories, successes, and occasional issues developing the AGILE Hardware and Software.
We will also hear about companies that now use the AGILE Gateway to bring amazing products to the market faster, and how you can also take part in the IoT revolution!
