What this kit includes? This kit includes everything which you want to build your successful IoT project such as

1.

Hi-Node – Hi-Node is a battery (2700 MAH Li-ion) or USB [Optional] powered wireless node, designed with purpose of making interaction between real world & embedded devices simpler by providing multiple options of wired & wireless connectivity on single board. Hi-Node is a complete package or a set of 3 modular units such as sensing, controlling & powering.

Modular IoT Development Kit With reference to above given image, Hi-Node can be used in 2 different combinations to achieve remote (Only monitoring) applications or other IoT (Monitoring & controlling) applications. 2.

Hi-Gate

- Hi-Gate is the brain of this kit which is completely modular & enterprise IoT gateway.

Modular IoT Development Kit Hi-Gate not only translates the protocol [RF/NON RF –To– REST/MQTT] but with TI CC3200 at its heart, it also offers better computational power to run advance IoT project algorithms & communication due to availability of multiple on board Inbound & Outbound Connectivity protocols such as

Inbound Connectivity Protocols: Zig-Bee, BLE 4.0, SUB-1* Outbound Connectivity Protocols: (Wi-Fi) 802.11 B/G/N Radio, GSM/GPRS (2G). Top 5 IoT Features of Hi-Gate: • It can be easily configured & managed via hIOTron IoT Platform locally/remotely. • It has dual Mode of operation as a Node or Gateway (both). • Supports multiple wireless nodes means up-to 25 Hi-nodes (25x8 channels) can be connected under single Hi-Gate (gateway). • It reconnects automatically to the internet in case of loss of internet connectivity via Wi-Fi or GPRS for any remote application. • Last but not least it is suitable for any kind of IoT application which are purely sensor & actuator based.

Dashboard & Mobile App

- You can monitor & control your project application through Dashboard & Mobile Application and do unlimited customization from anywhere, anytime.

Set the Rules - This is very interesting & important feature of hIOTron IoT platform where you can simply set the rule for whichever channel of node you want.

•

Let’s take the same home automation example where you have used 4 channels of HiNode in which 2 are dedicated input channels for sensors & 2 are dedicated output channels for actuators.

You can click to the setting of each input channels then give name to your sensors & add the rules. Now, set the condition if temperature goes more than 25°C then A.C. should turn on else it should turn off. Similarly, set the condition for luminance sensor or any other.

Likewise, you can assign different task to the output channels or devices with the help of hIOTron application models such as •

Actions – Action model will let you define task for the hardware or real appliances/machines or motor (Event or time based) either turn on, off or do nothing.

•

Notifications – Notification model let you send push notifications, Email or SMS to concerned department or person with customized messages or mail.

•

Time Interval or Advance actions– Advance actions will let you interact with other nodes under same network.

[With the help of rules, you can easily leverage or enhance the features of your current or next upcoming IoT product/project easily.]

Other Benefits: Also, this kit will let you analyze & understand your or client’s application requirement practically at every level of communication such as
