At u-blox, our vision is clear: the future with us is precise, smart, and sustainable. 🌍 Speaking of #sustainability, let me share an example of how our technology contributes to #WildlifeConservation. By enabling precise, non-invasive tracking of endangered species such as penguins, rhinos, and pangolins, our technology provides conservationists with the critical data needed to protect these animals and their habitats. With wild species having declined significantly over the last decades, the urgency to preserve biodiversity has never been greater. Our cloud-enabled positioning solution is designed to overcome the challenges of tracking wildlife in remote areas, ensuring that conservation efforts are both effective and sustainable. A nice example of how IoT applications actively contribute to sustainability. Our planet needs more examples like this! Read our latest blog to learn more.

Astrocast, a leading global nanosatellite IoT network operator, delisted from Euronext Growth. The company, which has recorded strong growth this year despite harsh conditions, is looking for new funding and has realised that some potential investors are not investing in public companies. Oslo Børs has delisted Astrocast on 20 August in line with the company's application filed on May 31. Despite very harsh conditions, Astrocast continued to acquire more customers and deployed more products in the field. Recent milestones include 300% growth in commercial traffic on Astrocst’s satellite network and 1000% growth in Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) since January 2024. The company is now actively looking to engage with new investors to support this growth.

🌧️📡 Exciting Update from Our Latest Livestock Tracker Test! 🌧️📡 We recently put our LEO-connected livestock tracker to the test under some extreme conditions: a rainy, cloudy day from the 16th floor of a 32-story tower, with half the sky obstructed by the building. 🚀 Despite these challenges, both our Arigus trackers and the Astrocast DK performed exceptionally well. We are thrilled to report that we received 100% of the data from all devices! 🎉🐄 This successful test underscores the robustness and reliability of our tracking solution, even in less-than-ideal environments. We are committed to providing top-notch technology for livestock tracking and ensuring that our devices can withstand various conditions. Stay tuned for more updates, and we’ll be announcing the official launch date soon! 🚀 #Innovation #LivestockTracking #LEO #Astrocast #ArigusTracker #IoT #SmartFarming #TechInAgriculture Astrocast Fabien JordanFatima Vigil

The due diligence process for selecting an LEO satellite provider involves assessing #network reliability to align with the criticality level of their business applications. The article focuses on due diligence when integrating satellite modems and airtime services into end-products while acknowledging overlap with integrating satellite terminals. She provides an overview of LEO-enabled IoT solutions to aid comprehension and concludes with a playful metaphor, signifying the transition from introductory formalities to substantive discussion. ➡️Read the article here👇🏼 https://lnkd.in/eqBzjbJs 🗣️And, share your thoughts with us in the comments section👇🏼

❓ASTROPOLL FRIDAY Over the past decades, the Internet of Things has empowered organisations to create substantial value, seize remarkable opportunities, and achieve notable efficiencies. However, despite these achievements, numerous enterprises still face challenges with their connected products.  According to a Telenor IoT's study, only one in ten companies that launch IoT initiatives reach more than 20 per cent of their targeted volume within the first three years. Similar figures are estimated by Gartner, which shows that 75% of IoT projects will take twice as long as planned, with significant cost overruns. ✍️ Let us know your thoughts in the comments section. #SatIoT #IoTsolutions #satcomms

📖Astrocast's Weekend Reading Recommendation 👓 -  How can the world leverage IoT to tackle agricultural emissions? This article from IoT2Market discusses how agriculture contributes to greenhouse gas emissions and explores the role of the Internet of Things (IoT) in minimizing these emissions. It highlights that agriculture accounts for 19-29% of global greenhouse gas emissions and emphasizes the urgent need for sustainability in the industry. While countries like the U.S., China, and India are implementing changes to reduce emissions, more action is required. It showcases how IoT is crucial for modernizing agriculture and addressing emissions effectively. The article examines the primary sources of carbon emissions in agriculture, including enteric fermentation, manure management, and soil cultivation, and suggests ways IoT can help tackle these emissions. It discusses applying IoT technology in smart greenhouses, agricultural robots, and livestock monitoring to reduce emissions and create a more sustainable future for agriculture. ➡️Read the article here👇🏼 https://lnkd.in/dCybyPCv 🗣️And, share your thoughts with us in the comments section👇🏼 #agriculture #greenhousegasemissions #InternetofThings #sustainability
