    I(o)t takes a village

    Ever heard the saying, "It takes a village"? Well, that couldn't be more true for building IoT solutions today!📺 In this episode of the IoT Show, we chat with Brandon Satrom from Blues about how the IoT industry has totally transformed. We’ve gone from a world where you had to DIY every single thing, to a place with a plethora of platforms all trying to be the one-stop shop. Now, we're in a much smarter phase—picking the best parts from different companies to build something amazing.Brandon shares the scoop from Blues' perspective, a company that makes awesome hardware modules to give your devices seamless connectivity. ⚠️ TEASER ALERT: we learn where Blues 🎶 got its name fromWe also touch on The Things Conference, which is proof that the "it takes a village" idea is catching on. They’re expanding beyond just LoRaWAN to include all sorts of IoT tech. It's all about the ecosystem, and working together to make IoT work for everyone.Learn more about Blues 👉 https://blues.comCheck out The Things Conference 👉 https://thethingsconference.com

    No AI powered Smart Buildings without Digital Twins

    Are the digital and physical worlds able to sense and interact with each other? What does it take to make this a reality? Short answer: Digital twins! Who better than Bert Van Hoof, CEO at Willow, to attest to the importance of Digital Twins to make sense of the huge amount of heterogeneous data that smart buildings generate.If you have never heard about Willow, that's because their technology is hidden and as I like to say: the best tech is the one you don't see Learn more at https://willowinc.com/

    Wienke tells us what's new at The Things Conference 2025

    The Things Conference is becoming the must-attend IoT event of the year. Traditionally, this event was the hub for anything LoRaWAN, but as we all know, IoT is about more than just LPWAN technologies, it's actually more than just about connectivity. And The Things Industries team understand this better than anyone else. So they decided to extend the scope of this year's edition of the Conference.Learn more and register at https://TheThingsConference.com

    How far has Vision AI come over the past decade

    Dr. Andreas Savvides started his career over a couple of decades ago at Yale, leading research on wireless sensor networks, embedded systems, and sensor-driven applications for energy efficiency, security and healthcare. He rapidly realized the commercial potential of IoT and Edge AI and went on creating a SaaS energy analytics platform before many. Passionate about technology, he joined Cognex in 2018 to lead the company's edge intelligence efforts.Suffice it to say: Andreas knows a thing or two about Vision AI and its applications in the industry and shares with us a unique perspective on how far Edge AI has come, where it's going and how fast.🔗 Learn more about Cognex: https://www.cognex.com🤝 Connect with Andreas: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andreasgsavvides

  5. Have you heard of ambient IoT?

    Have you heard of ambient IoT?

    Many IoT devices run on batteries for obvious reasons (remote and mobile location, critical enough to not rely on grid power only, you name it). But batteries have shortcomings: they have a limited lifespan, you need to constantly minimize energy consumption, hence reducing what can be done, which limits the hardware choices as well...More and more IoT devices manufacturers are considering and adopting energy harvesting solutions such as solar, allowing their devices to generate energy from their environment. This is known as Ambient IoT.It's becoming even more important to consider energy production and consumption holistically (tech, cost, AI, ...), it is a system problem, not a component one. And for that you need the right tools.With Jeff Crystal from Voltaic and Björn Rosqvist from Qoitch we delve into the fascinating new world of ambient IoT, discussing considerations, pitfalls, tooling, and more.🔗 Learn more at https://www.qoitech.com/ and https://voltaicsystems.com/🙏 This episode is powered by IoT Stars https://iotstars.com

    Is UNS replacing ISA-95?

    Is ISA-95 obsolete? Is UNS the next step forward for Industrial data? How does the future of MES look like? Should we also consider a broader adoption of open-source technologies?That's some of the questions we are trying to answer on this new episode of the IoT Show with Alexander Krüger, Co-founder and CEO at United Manufacturing Hub (UMH) and long timer in the business of normalizing industrial data.Learn more at https://learn.umh.app/

    Zach Shelby: profile of an IoT trailblazer

    In technology, you have the ones who implement and use it, and you have the ones who invent, innovate, trailblaze.Zach Shelby, whom you might know as the co-founder of Edge Impulse, is one of these trailblazers, and as you'll hear in this episode, when retracing his career, we retrace a large part of IoT history.🙏This episode is powered by IoT Stars https://iotstars.com
