In the future, life will be automated more than ever before. Devices, structures, and cars will all be smart and autonomous. Wallets and personal identification will be entirely digital. 5G will be ubiquitous. To get there, the technological rate of change is fast and speeding up exponentially. Dragino is a fitting example of what this type of innovation looks like; in addition to making a Hotspot that runs on The People’s Network, Dragino has developed and manufactured smart IoT products for decades.

Founded in Shenzhen, China, Dragino has been improving the accessibility and functionality of smart LoRaWAN technology since 2010 after trying VoIP Gateways, WiFi routers, and other connectivity solutions. As an early Helium adopter, Dragino was one of the first to introduce LoRa starter kits and B2B solutions such as the LDS01 door sensor, which has won the hearts of business owners, property owners, and IoT enthusiasts for its ability to count door opens, send customized alerts and more. This sensor has since been iterated upon to include longer battery life and increased durability.

What does this mean for you?

The newest version, the LDS02, is now available for purchase and detects an open door using The People’s Network. Sensor owners receive real-time data, and Hotspot owners receive $HNT rewards. This data is invaluable for business owners, who are empowered with metrics such as door status, open time, and open counts. Plus, for those who want doors to stay shut, the LDS02 comes equipped with an open alarm alert feature.

A restaurant might use the LDS02 open alarm on The People’s Network to ensure refrigerator doors are kept closed throughout the day — improving food safety and freshness for customers.

With compatible solutions tailored to industries ranging from agriculture to food safety, Dragino is leading fast technological innovation by launching a number of new products monthly.
