2. LoRa and our opportunities

8
What is LoRa?

• LoRa is Long Range


– By Semtech 2012
– 169 Mhz, 433 Mhz and 868 Mhz

9
Why LoRa?

• It’s just a technology!

10
Why LoRa?

• We could choose again?

11
LoRa vs. LoRaWAN

• LoRaWAN is built on top of LoRa


– For country-wide network for IoTs

12
Opportunities

• Business: Commercialize combo of long range


IoTs
– Home users, residential houses, buildings and
firms and farming areas.
• Technical: The gateway is to communicate
with IoTs within 1-10km.
– Control all IoTs in long ranges

13
Very huge market

14
And huge money

15
Easy LoRa group

• Easy LoRa Gateway is an OPEN SOURCE and


easy-to-use LoRa Gateway to connect all types
of sensors within 1-10km for home and small
business users.

16
Why join us?

• No company could win this battle alone.


– Vietnam?
• A community “may” help
– To spin off many startups to join the eco-system.
– To create the market
• We want a small portion of a bigger cake.
• YOU can sell your own gateway with the
source code, too.

• Ability to receive and transmit Lora packets


(single channel)
• Ability to forward Lora messages to a MQTT
centralized servers
• Ability to trigger HTTP requests via Ethernet.
• Ability to save information to SD Card.
• Ability to be cloud managed
• Ability to display a local web server for basic
configuration of all the above.
