Myriota, a global company specialising in field-generated intelligence, has introduced Myriota FlexSense, a ready-to-deploy hardware platform designed for developers aiming to create advanced sensor-based solutions. The device features cutting-edge Bluetooth Low Energy and multi-sensor functionalities, powered by Myriota’s low-power satellite connectivity. Equipped to run on four AA batteries, FlexSense can operate for over ten years.
FlexSense enables solution providers and OEMs to develop and deliver tracking and sensing IoT solutions within a matter of months. It can be set up within minutes from unboxing to installation, offering a code-free experience suitable for a range of applications, such as location monitoring and sensing humidity, pressure, temperature, and vibration.
FlexSense provides essential connectivity for remote tracking and sensing data, wherever required. Myriota’s solution significantly reduces development costs and complexity for its partners, facilitating quicker market entry. The device features a robust IP67-rated, UV-resistant enclosure, operational between -30°C and +70°C, and includes a preinstalled 3m cable with versatile sensor interfaces such as analogue, digital, serial, and I2C, making it ideal for demanding real-world field trials.
Ben Cade, CEO, Myriota, commented: “With FlexSense we redefine the IoT landscape, making it easier than ever before for developers to design and deploy IoT solutions that work anywhere. The technology works seamlessly with a variety of sensors, meaning our partners can rapidly customise the hardware to meet their unique specifications across a wide range of use cases.”
“Our technology is trusted by Solutions Providers and OEMs looking to bring best-in-class IoT solutions to sectors including agriculture, water, and transport & logistics, as well as a whole host of environmental applications. Our global reach is testament to the trust our customers have in the reliability of our hardware and services, and our ability to provide them with a competitive edge in an ever-changing global market.”
The technology, now being rolled out worldwide, has undergone extensive testing prior to release. This includes collaboration with Grundfos, a Denmark-headquartered pump and water solutions company, utilising Myriota FlexSense hardware for a robust pump and tank monitoring system.
Tom Drew, Global Business Development Manager, Solar, Grundfos said: “Myriota is an indispensable partner for our business, enabling us to deliver our energy and water solutions for a wide range of use cases across the globe. Their low-power connectivity enables our customers to optimise operations over huge distances, reduce energy consumption, and maximise sustainability, while also ensuring faster response times to issues such as water leaks.”
As OEMs’ sales volumes increase, they can seamlessly transition from FlexSense to fully customised solutions using the Myriota Module. This offers OEMs a swift and low-risk path to creating solutions that meet specific economic and form factor requirements.
FlexSense is the latest partner-enabling solution from Myriota, an Australian-headquartered company. Myriota experienced a 300% growth in deployed devices in FY2023 and is rapidly expanding deployments across APAC, USA, EMEA, and LATAM.
