Occam Technology Group is officially entering the IoT product market with its own offering of LoRaWAN-focused products under the OccamSmart brand.
Occam Technology Group has, for the last two decades, been known for its expertise as an embedded systems engineering firm but is now expanding its operations to include its own line of Internet of Things hardware and products under the OccamSmart brand.
Over the last three years, Occam Technology Group has made a name for itself as one of the leading engineering authorities in LoRa technology and the LoRaWAN protocol. LoRaWAN is a rapidly-growing Low-Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) communications standard for large-scale and long-distance Internet of Things applications, such as smart cities, precision agriculture, and factory deployments.
“Occam Technology Group entering the product market comes as a result of two years of internal research and development, and as a realization that much of the needed supporting IoT infrastructure technology was developing at a much slower pace than connected sensors and devices,” Chief Technology Officer and Founder Raymond Carr stated.
Gordon Ryerson, Occam Technology Group’s managing director, added: “due to our long history as an embedded engineering firm, we find ourselves uniquely positioned and capable of designing secure and reliable IoT technologies in a market that is largely being served by startup companies with less sophisticated product development experience.”
Occam Technology Group showcased prototypes of its various hardware products and components at the recent LoRa Alliance All Members Meeting in Amsterdam, where the company’s LoRa-focused laboratory equipment as well as its proprietary mPCIe form-factor Smart Gateway card created excitement and significant interest.
The company will release its first OccamSmart products for general availability later this month.
