Solution Offered by EnerCera battery
Tracking device can be miniaturized by combining small and thin EnerCera battery with ultra-low power consumption microcomputer.
By combining Wi-Fi and GPS, location information can be acquired both indoors and outdoors, and sensing data can be transmitted via LoRa®*1 communication with the high-power EnerCera battery.
Maintenance-free is possible by combining low resistance EnerCera battery and solar cells.
*1 A communication method developed by SEMTECH that realizes long-distance communication.
Completed a maintenance-free, compact position tracker
A real-time maintenance-free tracking device has been realized by combining solar cells with high power, high capacity EnerCera battery and ultra low power RE MCU*2 from Renesas Electronics.
*2 RE Cortex-M Ultra-low Power SOTB MCUs
Wi-Fi & GPS provide accurate tracking information
We have realized a tracking device that can be used anywhere, by using Wi-Fi as a method of acquiring location information indoor, or installing a system that can acquire location information from GPS outdoors where Wi-Fi is not connected. By using LoRa® for communication via the cloud, it is possible to constantly manage information on PCs / smartphones, etc.
Maintenance-free, compact and thin tracking system realized by combining energy harvesting technology and low resistance, high capacity EnerCera battery. Location information can be managed through PC/smartphone, etc. Photovoltaic powered indoor/outdoor position tracker.
