From 35 billion devices today, the number of networked devices will grow to more than 75 billion by 2025.*
NB IoT works with very small amounts of data using low amounts of energy. Battery runtimes of more than 10 years are possible.
With pre-installed SIM cards, Narrowband IoT enables intuitive plug-and-play applications.
Low costs per networked device coupled with reduced complexity provide high scalability, even internationally.
High building penetration makes NB IoT the ideal transmission standard for use cases inside buildings.
Unlike other LPWA networks, NB IoT has all the security and privacy features of cellular networks, including strong transmission quality.
Stiegelmeyer, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of hospital and care beds, has also recognized the potential that lies in the networking of its products. In collaboration with grandcentrix and Device Insight, it has developed a digital out-of-bed system based on Narrowband IoT. This relieves the nursing staff and significantly improves safety and comfort for residents and patients.
When a patient at risk of falling gets out of bed, the NB IoT solution notifies caregivers via push message to smartphone and dashboard – customized by time of day, health status and patient mobility. In addition, the solution offers transparent condition monitoring of all bed status data, simplified weight recording and intuitive handling.
Smart electricity, water and gas meters are ideal for the use of NB IoT. Consumers benefit from the convenience of automated transmission and receive a transparent overview of their energy consumption. Smart Metering also enables companies to significantly improve their energy management, save costs and conserve resources at the same time.
Intelligent, IoT-enabled streetlights are not only centrally controllable, but also use a motion detector to detect whether people are nearby or not – and automatically adjust their brightness. Considering the large number of lanterns in public spaces, in this way, energy costs can be significantly reduced. If a lamp is damaged, it reports it automatically.
The term Smart Building refers to the intelligent networking and automation of buildings such as shopping malls, hospitals, or airports, but also office buildings. NB IoT is particularly suitable here due to its good building penetration. IoT use cases can easily be implemented without having to rely on the existing network infrastructure.
