STICKER

If you need a small wireless sensor, STICKER may be the right solution. It can collect data about the surrounding environment and also allows the connection of external sensors. It communicates wirelessly over LoRaWAN and is powered by two AA batteries.

Product overview

Data from distant and deep indoor places

Simple installation of the sensor at a specific location is greatly simplified by wireless data transmission. For low-power devices, this can be achieved by using the LoRaWAN network that STICKER supports. For close communication, NFC support, which is included in most modern phones, is also integrated.

Reliable battery life of at least one year

STICKER was developed entirely as a low-power device, providing at least one year of operation from primary AA cells. Thanks to the customized housing changing batteries is as easy as with the TV remote control.

Primary Lithium Cells

Rechargable Batteries

Easy extensibility

STICKER includes ports for expanding functions. For example, 1-Wire temperature sensors, strain gauges, and many other external probes can be connected. Another option is to switch the inputs into a mode where they work with 24 V industrial logic (PNP and NPN), detect dry contact, or serve
as an ADC converter for voltages up to 30 V.

Easy LoRaWAN
network setup

If you don't have your own LoRaWAN network yet, you can simply start this network locally using our product EMBER. Starting LoRaWAN is as simple as setting up a Wi-Fi router. If you need any advice on starting your own local LoRaWAN network, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Data in context

Each measurement has its own context. If the values are independent and not included in the context, we do not get the most out of the data. This can be solved by integrating sensed values across information systems. STICKER, in combination with EMBER, sends the resulting data to MQTT, where it can be easily linked to other systems using Node-RED.

Firmware development

Build your own application on top of the nRF Connect SDK with the underlying Zephyr OS. With embedded C as a primary programming language and support for Visual Studio Code as the development IDE, you can use Windows, macOS, or Linux development environments.
