Taoglas®,
a leading provider of next-generation Internet of Things (IoT)
solutions, will showcase its IoT EDGE portfolio including the EDGE
Locate™, the EDGE Connect™ and the newest EDGE IoT Starter Kit for
next-generation IoT solutions. Taoglas will also introduce its newest
antenna and RF designs as well as demonstrate customer applications,
including a revolutionary IoT connected health solution for the
equestrian industry which monitors a horse’s heart rate, activity,
behavior and GPS location in real-time.

The EDGE
Locate
is a GNSS L1/L2/E5 solution that combines antenna, RF
electronics, receiver and when used in conjunction with real-time
kinematic (RTK) positioning capability, the technology can deliver
reliable centimeter-level positioning. Using EDGE Locate, manufacturers
can quickly and effectively build devices with centimeter-level
positioning technology, avoiding costly and lengthy RF design,
integration and testing processes. The device features multiband Global
Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) positioning that may be used in
conjunction with RTK positioning capability with RTK set up and service
also be provided by Taoglas. EDGE Locate can help enable more reliable
location-specific, mission-critical services, such as emergency
response, smart infrastructure, precision agriculture and micromobility
use cases where precise location provides critical value to the IoT
application. Taoglas recently integrated this technology into
an e-scooter pilot launch on the Dublin City University campus
.

The EDGE
Connect
is a next-generation IoT hardware and software platform that
provides full cellular, Bluetooth and GPS capabilities with sensor
integration, device management, a full IoT security stack and
Data-as-a-Service out of the box. The EDGE
Connect was recently chosen by Vodafone Ireland for the Vodafone
Business Invent application development platform
.

Taoglas’ EDGE IoT Starter Kit will also be showcased at CES. It
integrates the EDGE Connect and EDGE Locate platforms. With the EDGE IoT
Starter Kit, enterprises can easily design, develop, pilot and deploy a
range of IoT applications with a cost-effective short- and long-range
wireless hardware and software platform – complete with a variety of
sensors – and leverage data gathered from edge devices and sensors for
advanced insights.

Taoglas will also be showcasing its industry-leading 5G antenna
portfolio, the latest in LTE antennas such as CATM and NBIoT, in
addition a broad range of wireless technologies, encompassing GNSS,
Wi-Fi, DSRC/CV2X, NFC, LORA/LPWAN.

“As we get closer to fully realizing 5G, Taoglas’ expertise in
integrating high-performance antennas with IoT solutions will help solve
increasingly complex challenges across the consumer and industrial
spaces,” said Ronan Quinlan, co-CEO of Taoglas. “Our IoT platforms and
antenna portfolio, combined with our world-class design services
underscore the value we add as a trusted partner to our customers and
enable them to get to market on time, the first time.”
