What is LoRa IoT?

Long Range technology (LoRa) was started in France in 2009 by Nicolas Sornin and Olivier Seller, who ever since stopped at nothing to make it a reality. They derived this technique from the chirp spread spectrum tech (CSS). Semtech later acquired this wireless network technology in May 2012. The technology’s low power and long-range capabilities are now evident in multiple Lora applications like smart environments, smart cities, disease and pandemic control, smart homes, smart agriculture, smart utilities, smart metering, smart supply chain, and logistics, among many others we will discuss here. LoRaWAN applications are identifiable by their unique LoRa application id.
