IoT connectivity firm Digi is showing a collection of embedded products and services at this week’s CES in Las Vegas.

Digi is giving live demonstrations showing the power of connected technologies to spur growth and enhance efficiencies for critical medical, transportation, smart energy and industrial applications.

For example, a presentation of edge-to-cloud sensing, simulating smart sensors in different environments, with the XBee Sensor Lab is letting visitors get hands-on with sensors and see the data changing on a dynamic display in real time, processing and transmitting data over the LTE cellular network with XBee 3 global cellular modems.

In collaboration with Versinetics, Digi has created a simulated EV charging station and is showing how its ConnectCore systems-on-module provide control, management and display capabilities.

Digi is also demonstrating a device-to-cloud LoRaWan product. The XBee LR demonstration should help answer questions about LoRaWan and, more importantly, show how to use LoRaWan to launch a successful IoT product.

Additionally, Digi is showing collaborations with value-added reseller SparkFun, which recently released MicroPython libraries for its line of Qwiic sensors. This enables the sensors to interact with the XBee Sensor Lab to create a system of smart sensors that gather data at the edge.

“We are thrilled to exhibit a wide range of innovative embedded services at CES,” said Bob Blumenscheid, senior product manager at Digi. “From live demos showcasing the wireless capabilities of the XBee Sensor Lab to collaborative endeavours like our EV charging station demo with Versinetics and the unveiling of our seamless XBee LR LPWAN solution, we take immense pride in advancing the IoT landscape, empowering enterprises and driving innovation in important verticals.”

Digi’s embedded IoT technologies are changing the way people, machines and processes interact. This is due in no small part to its Remote Manager, which serves as the central command centre for intelligent networks. Network connectivity serves as the foundation for unlocking the potential of these technologies.

Founded in 1985, Minnesota-based Digi (www.digi.com) has helped customers connect more than 100 million things.
