Asset Tracking LoRa is the Best Logical Choice
Asset tracking LoRa has one of the prompt applications to obtain significant traction first in the machine-to-machine market over the last few decades, in the Internet of Things (IoT). The purpose was purely to have remote visibility of the location of the asset. However, with the evolution toward IoT and the increasing availability of new technologies such as low-power wide-area networks, asset-tracking applications are becoming more ubiquitous, pervasive, and sophisticated.
Now the LoRa makes it easy and affordable for smart supply chain and logistics to track highly valued assets that are in transit. Because of LoRa Technology’s long-range and low power consumption qualities and GPS-free geolocation abilities, cargo, vehicles and other assets can be easily monitored over large geographic regions and within harsh environments.
Adapted to severe industrial environments, combining robustness, compactness, and longevity, the LR No Track beacon is equipped with LoRa technology. Compatible with private and public LoRa networks (LoRaWan), this tracker equipped with a GPS, a magnetic sensor, as well as a movement sensor, meets many industrial applications for the identification and precise location of equipment on several kilometers.
Radio signals are analyzed to determine location. Come up with highly accurate location over large distances with little infrastructure and at a lower cost than traditional technologies like GPS, BLE, UWB, or WiFi. LoRaWAN Asset Tracking is the two-way ranging and advanced ranging are two techniques used to uncover the device’s location. The location services are part of the set and have seen use cases in palette tracking for better operations, warehouse vehicle tracking for optimized use, and people tracking to improve health and safety procedures.
The indoor and real-time equipment location solution responds to many challenges such as safety, performance optimization, equipment maintenance, automation of certain previously manual tasks while ensuring one location per floor. This industrial solution can be deployed under different technologies, each having its characteristics. However, these all rely on a set of 100% self-contained tags with a very long lifespan. For ease of management, each beacon can be renamed via the IoT platform according to the equipment to be located. A little extra: It is possible to send a visual and/or audible alert (LED and buzzer) on the mobile tags in the event of danger or evacuation.

The Asset Trackers LoRa carry several radios for communication, but the most common types include 3G, 4G, and LoRa. 3G/4G are commonplace in most markets, and there are very few locations where there is no mobile signal. Unlike 3G/4G technologies; LoRa uses comparatively far less power, an essential feature for asset tracking.
