Wireless & Self-Powered Internet of Things Wireless & self-powered Internet of Things The Dolphin products are based on miniaturized energy converters, ultra-low power electronics and robust radio technology in open standards like EnOcean, zigbee and Bluetooth Low Energy for OEM product manufacturers. Building automation Smart home LED lighting M2M Our technology The Dolphin modules and white label products use the energy harvesting principle, in which energy is obtained from the surroundings, to supply self-powered wireless sensor networks. The modules are based on miniaturized energy converters that convert motion, light or temperature differences into electrical energy. Together with an efficient energy management system, the energy harvesting technology facilitates communication between maintenance-free IoT devices based on open wireless standards, such as EnOcean, zigbee and Bluetooth Low Energy. The solutions are used in building automation, smart homes, LED lighting control systems as well as industrial applications. Energy harvesting Wireless Ultra-low power The Dolphin portfolio for OEM product manufacturers The Dolphin portfolio includes the product lines “868 MHz EnOcean” for Europe, “902 MHz EnOcean” for North America and “928 MHz EnOcean” in Japan based on the EnOcean wireless standard introduced by the EnOcean Alliance (ISO/IEC 14543-3-1X) on the sub 1 GHz band, which has proven to be a resounding success in building automation and smart homes. The Dolphin porftolio also includes the “2.4 GHz zigbee” product line in the 2.4 GHz band, which can be used in smart home applications all over the world, and the “2.4 GHz BLE” portfolio for Bluetooth systems for modern lighting control.

  • Zigbee-Based System for Remote Monitoring and Control of Switches
    Copyright is owned by the Author of the thesis. Permission is given for a copy to be downloaded by an individual for the purpose of research and private study only. The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. ZigBee-Based System for Remote Monitoring and Control of Switches A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Engineering at Massey University, Albany, New Zealand. © Matthew Lyon October 2010 1 Abstract Home automation technology has existed for nearly four decades, but is nonetheless mostly absent in the average home today. The systems that do exist are often highly customised and expensive, catering to a very niche market, or overly sophisticated and complicated. Many of these also require extensive, dedicated cabling as their communications backbone and as such are only practical to install during the construction of a new house. The core aims of this project are to develop a cheap and simple home automation system that can be easily installed in new and existing houses. These aims are achieved by creating a centralised system where most of the intelligence is managed by a PC server and the end nodes are kept as simple as possible. The server is responsible for basic security, maintaining awareness of the current system state and providing the user interface. At the outer edge of the system is a ZigBee network of wall switches and, in between, a home gateway provides a protocol translation service between the two. The new, “smart” switches are designed to be entirely compatible with existing wall switches in terms of their mounting and wiring requirements, and so ZigBee is chosen to provide a reliable wireless communication channel between the end nodes and the gateway.

  • What's New in Zigbee 3.0
    White Paper SWRA615A–June 2019 What's New in Zigbee 3.0 Zigbee is an industry-proven worldwide standard for low power, self-healing, robust mesh networks offering a complete and interoperable IoT solution for home and building automation. Based on the IEEE 802.15.4 standard and providing a simplified approach to commissioning devices securely, it enables users the ability to form networks involving over 250 devices for large coverage areas. Through adherence to a profile specification and ZCP (Zigbee Compliant Platform) testing, Zigbee devices can become certified for interoperability across various platforms. Texas Instruments™ CC13x2 and CC26x2 devices are part of the SimpleLink™ microcontroller (MCU) platform. Zigbee based applications can be developed on these devices using the TI Z-Stack included with the SimpleLink™ CC13x2 and CC26x2 software development kit (SDK). This SDK includes everything needed to develop Zigbee certifiable solution including tools, application examples, documentation and source code. It uses Zigbee 3.0, the latest specification from the Zigbee Alliance which unifies former application segments under a common certification process. The following sections intend to give users an overview of all of the new features introduced in the Zigbee 3.0 specification. 1 Overview At the core of Zigbee 3.0 is the Zigbee PRO 2017 (R22). Note that previously Zigbee Pro 2015 (R21) was required for Zigbee 3.0, which has now been replaced with the newer Zigbee Pro 2017 (R22) specification. Older implementation based on the R21 specification are still compatible with the new R22 specification. The Zigbee PRO Specification adds child device management, improved security features, and new network topology options to Zigbee networks.

  • Cybersecurity of Industrial Cyber-Physical Systems: a Review
    CYBERSECURITY OF INDUSTRIAL CYBER-PHYSICAL SYSTEMS: AREVIEW Hakan Kayan Matthew Nunes School of Computer Science and Informatics School of Computer Science and Informatics Cardiff University, UK Cardiff University, UK [email protected] [email protected] Omer Rana Pete Burnap School of Computer Science and Informatics School of Computer Science and Informatics Cardiff University, UK Cardiff University, UK [email protected] [email protected] Charith Perera School of Computer Science and Informatics Cardiff University, UK [email protected] January 12, 2021 ABSTRACT Industrial cyber-physical systems (ICPSs) manage critical infrastructures by controlling the processes based on the “physics” data gathered by edge sensor networks. Recent innovations in ubiquitous computing and communication technologies have prompted the rapid integration of highly intercon- nected systems to ICPSs. Hence, the “security by obscurity” principle provided by air-gapping is no longer followed. As the interconnectivity in ICPSs increases, so does the attack surface. Industrial vulnerability assessment reports have shown that a variety of new vulnerabilities have occurred due to this transition while the most common ones are related to weak boundary protection. Although there are existing surveys in this context, very little is mentioned regarding these reports. This paper bridges this gap by defining and reviewing ICPSs from a cybersecurity perspective. In particular, multi-dimensional adaptive attack taxonomy is presented and utilized for evaluating

  • Home Automation an Introduction to Home Assistant
    Open Source Home Automation An Introduction to Home Assistant Rob Peck ([email protected]) What is Home Automation? • Using computers to control our physical world. • Controlling lighting, HVAC, appliances, etc using remote systems and automations. • Automating repetitive tasks around the home. We are humans, we shouldn’t behave like computers. My Home Automation Journey • Bought our house in 2012, it has eave lighting. Makes the house look pretty at night. Decided I wanted them to turn on and off at certain times. • Has 2 different banks of lights, with different switches on opposite sides of the house. :/ • First I used WeMo Wifi switches for this and they “worked” but were kind of a pain to use. The Z-Wave Era • After being unhappy with the WeMo Wifi switches, I decided to go deeper into the Home Automation world. Started looking at industry standards. • There are a handful of home automation standards: ZigBee and Z-Wave are the two big ones and use mesh wireless. X10 is an older protocol using power line communication, Insteon is a newer powerline and wireless mesh protocol. • I decided on Z-Wave mostly because it used the less-crowded 900mhz band with longer range. ZigBee is in the 2.4ghz band, same as wifi. Downside is Z- Wave devices are usually more expensive. • Eventually I ended up with both. SmartThings • All protocols require a hub. The hub acts as a central coordinator of messages and a source for automations. • Both ZigBee and Z-Wave are mesh protocols, meaning that some devices also act as re-transmitters so that messages can reach remote areas.
