Lora is like 10 bits per second... really slow.
- paletoy 12y agoSo do you see some IOT tech that could spread without needing a router in every home ?
- bravo22 12y agoBLE + WiFi in some nodes; BLE in all the really low power ones that need to give you data -- like motion sensor.
- JetSpiegel 12y agoI only need a bit to turn a light on, so we may be onto something here.
- outside1234 12y agoYou forgot about security.
- Sanddancer 12y agoDimmers need a few bits, probably 8+ for decent control. Waiting a few seconds for a light to dim would be rather annoying. Doing RGB effects would be even slower. Ovens need at least 10 for a decent temperature range. Authenticating a door lock would require at least 128 bits one way, and another 128 the other; 30 seconds would be way too long for that purpose. Plus, you need to take into account addressing, a protocol for the type of message, and other aspects in order to route commands to the proper node. 10 bits per second just isn't going to cut it.
- JetSpiegel 12y agoIf I'm 50cm from the door, there no need to use this protocol. This for the times you're not at home, but somewhat close. If I want to turn the lights off and I'm at home, I just flick a switch.
