SMART PARKING WITH A SMART APPROACH WITH MULTITECH AND PNI
"We considered in-house designs, but instead
opted to leverage MultiTech's LoRa expertise
and focus our engineering resources on the
sensor technology." Robin Stoecker, Director
of Marketing, PNI Corporation
●
A Multitech xDot sensor provides real-time parking data over a Low Power Wide
Area Network (LPWAN).
●
The xDot is a secure, LoRaWAN® compliant, Arm® Mbed™ programmable, low-
power RF module.
●
It provides long-range, low bit rate M2M data connectivity to sensors,industrial
equipment and remote appliances and wasideally suited for PNI's Smart Parking
solution.
●
Delivers the industry's most accurate magnetic sensing system, combined with
PNI's high performance sensor and vehicle detection algorithms to accurately
detect the presence or absence of a car in a parking space.
The most mission-critical aspects of parking management:
•
accurate, real-time vehicle detection and the location of available parking
spaces. To meet these needs PNI developed its PlacePod Smart Parking
Sensor.
•
PNI selected Multitech's xDot Long Range LoRa Modules for use within their
PlacePod smart parking sensors
