This VoBo is deployed deep within a processing facility. It is used to monitor calibration gas pressures for critical process analyzers. The customer is focused primarily on health and safety during their rollout of LoRa/LoRaWANs. They shared the picture as it demonstrates how a $600 VoBo can both drastically reduce their staff’s exposure to potentially dangerous equipment and situations while also saving significant time and money.
It is time to question the way things have always been done. “I don’t know why. That’s just the way it’s always been done so we have to keep doing it that way.” Resistance to change is understandable. People are busy; they are rushed. They don’t want to mess something up or ask a stupid …

We are thrilled to have established a relationship with Loriot. As a longstanding member of the LoRa Alliance, Loriot has played an integral role in shaping the direction of LoRa.
Industrial IoT and, more particularly, LoRa, are quite literally “world changing.” While the benefits are numerous, those associated with cost and savings are often the most stark. See how the VoBo is going to save this customer millions of dollars.
One of the most interesting things about working with cutting edge technology like LoRa is exploring all of the potential applications. Some use cases are pretty straightforward. Others are kind of wild. To demonstrate the wide array of uses for VolleyBoast’s VoBo we are starting a series describing the duties of various VoBos operating in the real world.
When we started VolleyBoast, we anticipated the biggest opportunity for LoRaWAN solutions was to provide a straightforward solution for acquiring data from points that were too expensive to run power and communications cables. Cost-effective access to data permits more efficient operations. Our initial target markets were new facilities or data acquisition from new measurement points …
