From 2004 to 2014, the average cost of sensors for IoT systems dropped by more than half, from $1.30 to 60 cents, and is expected to go as low as 38 cents by 2020.

AT&T has launched 5G RedCap across the US, targeting mid-tier IoT use cases with lower-cost, lower-power 5G – replacing its ...

IoT devices are notoriously under-secured. Unlike traditional computing systems, these devices often come with limited ...

By using AI and IoT, manufacturers can now spot issues early, which stops downtime and keeps machines running longer.

Choosing wireless over wired IoT sensors involves some cost considerations. For example, a very cost-sensitive process manufacturing application may not warrant a costly wireless system. There are ...

75F. Founded in 2012, 75F deals in IoT building management, offering a suite of wireless light, sound, temperature and CO2 sensors, among other types, which can be leveraged as part of a “vertically ...
