Announced on the Ambrosus blog:
“Ambrosus is proud to announce the public release of its IoT (Internet of Things) production kits! After months of designing, prototyping, and testing different products, a number of IoT solutions and Gateways are officially fit for industrial implementation! These tools, utilized for collecting, transmitting, and managing data from the physical world, are specifically designed for enterprises and entrepreneurs interested in utilizing the Ambrosus Network, for their next-generation of data management solutions. With the release of the Ambrosus IoT Product Kits, Ambrosus now stands uniquely at the nexus of Blockchain and the Internet of Things (IoT), with a strong commitment to data transparency and integrity!
More specifically, the documentation can be categorized beneath the following headings, with specific information contained in each individual fact sheet:
Ambrosus Network Architecture
The first series of Fact Sheets provides a graphics based explanation of the entire Ambrosus Ecosystem. From its major components, to the functionality of the different masternodes on the network, these factsheets contextualize the place and importance of the IoT production kits.

Middleware and Communication Protocols
The three fact sheets devoted to ‘middleware and communication protocols’ concentrate on explaining how the data collected from IoT devices can be communicated to the Ambrosus Network and underlying blockchain infrastructure. This overview outlines different solutions involving BLE, LoRaWan, as well as LoRaDTN. Furthermore, a technical description of the Ambrosus Multisensing Platform as well as its edge gateways are provided explaining the underlying purpose of such technology. Altogether, the factsheets outline different technical designs, as well as the underlying importance of ensuring secure data management and connectivity, between connecting devices and the blockchain.

What does this mean for the Ambrosus Ecosystem?
As the premier blockchain and IoT platform, AMB-NET is officially upgraded and primed for sophisticated IoT product implementation using the diverse array of IoT Kits now available to enterprises and entrepreneurs. Based upon these 11 initial kits, the foundation for developing sophisticated and complete IoT solution architectures across industries is now available. Data from a complex number of environments can be securely collected, transmitted, stored, and visualized utilizing the different components of the Ambrosus Network. In the coming weeks, more IoT products and relevant documentation will be released pertaining to more complex IoT solutions that Ambrosus is currently in the process of further developing.
Welcome to the Fourth Industrial Revolution; it is going to be an exciting journey!”
