IoT-Keystone is based on Contiki-NG: an open-source, cross-platform operating system for Next-Generation IoT devices. It focuses on dependable (secure and reliable) low-power communication and standard protocols, such as IPv6/6LoWPAN, 6TiSCH, RPL, and CoAP. IoT-Keystone adds a number of new features to Contiki-NG, including a LoRaWAN MAC.
The IoT.Keystone Innovator Board is the easiest and most secure way to get your sensor data to where you need it. It features these unprecedented features in an extremely low power and robust design, ready to go out of the box:
- All-in-one board, no external components required.
- Integrated efficient sub-GHz antenna.
- Integrated 2.4 GHz antenna.
- Integrated USB type-A connector for battery charging, console IO, application configuration and interaction.
- Integrated Li-Po battery charger.
- Comes with 350 mAh Li-Po battery.
- Powerful yet low power TI CC1352 ARM Cortex-M4F MCU with 352 KB RAM operating at 48 MHz with integrated IPv6 sub-GHz mesh radio and BLE-compatible 2.4 GHz radio.
- Semtech SX1262 LoRa transceiver and LoRaWAN capable.
- Enhanced ESD protection for more robust user handling.
- BME280 sensor (temperature, pressure, humidity).
- OPT3001 sensor (light).
- MP34DT05 sensor (sound).
- DRV5032 sensor (magnetic hall effect).
- ICM-20948 9-axis advanced motion sensor (accelerometer, gyroscope, magnetometer).
- External sensor support
