When developing new IoT devices for our customers, it became clear early on: energy-efficient geolocation is a central component of modern LoRaWAN® applications. Our devices—particularly those based on the Semtech LR1110—were designed from the outset to efficiently capture GNSS and Wi-Fi scans and evaluate them in the cloud.
The obvious solution at first was to use existing cloud services such as Semtech LoRa Cloud. But during development, limitations quickly became apparent: announced discontinuations of individual features as well as a lack of native integrations with existing LoRaWAN Network Servers (LNS).
For many applications, this meant an uncertain future for existing deployments, additional integration effort, and less control over data and infrastructure. This does not meet our customers’ requirements.
LuneX emerged from this situation—an open, stable, and fully integrable cloud solution. Today, LuneX is exactly that: a reliable geolocation engine for LoRa Edge devices—developed from real-world projects.
