Wireless technology company Wyld Networks has signed a strategic partnership with Miromico AG to collaborate on sensor-to-satellite LoRaWAN terminals for IoT applications. Miromico, based in Switzerland, works on IoT as well as other technologies. 

As part of the agreement announced Wednesday, Miromico will help Wyld with the design, engineering, and manufacture of its sensor-to-satellite LoRaWAN terminals and modules.  Miromico will also resell Wyld Connect devices and satellite services, and Wyld will resell Miromico sensors globally, and integrate them in end-to-end solutions. 

Wyld said its Wyld Connect hybrid devices can transfer data directly to terrestrial networks or through a network of Low-Earth Orbiting (LEO) satellites. The company has a partnership with Eutelsat to provide a service for its ELO nanosatellites (Eutelsat LEO for Objects) also working with Senet and Trak Assure. 

“With years of experience in innovative design for integrated circuits, electronic systems and the IoT, Miromico is the ideal partner to help us accelerate our R&D and production activities to meet the growing demand for advanced satellite IoT solutions,” said Alastair Williamson, CEO at Wyld Networks. “There is a lot of synergy between the two companies that will help us to drive further market adoption and explore new applications.”

Wyld said it is already working on commercial data trials of its sensor-to-satellite service with customers and partners including Chevron and American Tower.
