The latest development in the endrich IoT ecosystem is the integration of neo.mesh, a wireless ad-hoc network technology from NeoCortec. This design offers a possible solution to collect data from physical networks consisting of many sensors and transfer it to a cloud-based database. This scalable, durable, independent and battery-powered local network of intelligent sensor nodes is ideal for agricultural applications. Instead of direct sensor-cloud communication, which requires multiple internet connections, a secure local sub-gigahertz network with a single connection to the World Wide Web is sufficient.
