FEATURES

● Worldwide geolocation Sigfox* and Wifi

● Light sensor (could be used to detect a container opening)

● Temperature measurement

● Battery level monitoring

● Complex motion pattern detection :
○ Crane up / down movements (validation pending)
○ Take off and landing detection
○ Or any other event that can be characterized

*depending on Sigfox Network coverage

BEHAVIOR

DATA

A frame can be sent :

- When a motion pattern is detected

- When a sensor event is detected (temperature, light, pressure, low battery, ...)

- At regular intervals as a “location” frame. (configurable via Downlink)

- When the device moves and then stops (these settings are configurable via Downlink)

- etc...

MONARCH

Monarch beacon allows to detect Sigfox zone (RCZ) in the world in order to adapt the
radiocommunication means. A scan beacon can be done at regular intervals, after a motion pattern
or any event detected by the sensors. The listening period can last up to 5 minutes. If the device does
not detect a beacon for many days in a row, it stops transmitting frame as it may be in the wrong RCZ.

WIFI LOCATION

A passive wifi scan is performed to detect MAC addresses in the surrounding area. These addresses
are sent via Sigfox frames to Axible backend, which requests a location to specialized APIs (Google,
Here...).
