Whether in the areas of smart metering, smart farming, smart industry, smart city or smart home – every company will sooner or later deal with the subject of digitalization. With our software solutions (Protocol Stacks), we aim to drive digital transformation for companies of all sizes and industries, and with our standard products we enable a simple and convenient introduction to equip your IoT network with connectivity.

Increasing digitalization is leading to a turning point in the energy industry. Public utilities, water and energy suppliers are facing greater challenges. Not only rising energy prices, scarcity of resources and growing environmental awareness on the part of consumers are driving a transformation, but the legal framework is also changing to more sustainability and transparency. Smart solutions are needed in many areas that make processes more efficient and ensure greater economic efficiency.

Digitalization is also becoming an increasingly important part of agriculture. On-farm processes are to be made more efficient and simpler by means of intelligent systems. Smart Farming means intelligent communication and networking of devices, machines, and systems.

Patrick Weber, Principal Engineer at STACKFORCE, has written an informative article in "Elektronik" about how sensor manufacturers can use the LPWAN wireless technology mioty® for their products. So, what is it that needs to be considered?

LPWAN technologies are the means of choice when it comes to the cost-effective deployment of a large number of low-energy devices in a comprehensive range of products. The most common representatives of this technology approach are LoRaWAN®, mioty® and Sigfox. All three are united by the low-power, long-lasting battery operation of simple sensors over a long range.

STACKFORCE and badenova subsidiary E-MAKS made another promising step to industry 4.0. In a joint project a solution for the digitalization of data transmission of shaft water meters has been developed and tested over the past months. The result was very successful and can be extended to many other use cases in the future.

STACKFORCE will be part of the digital event Wireless Congress 2020: Systems & Applications. David Rahusen, managing director at STACKFORCE, will provide some insight on benefits and challenges about “Multi-Protocol Solutions for LPWAN” on 11 November 2020 14:35 – 14:55.

The popular LoRaWAN® stack is available as open source – So why should I spent money for it? Here are five answers to this very good question!

The founder of STACKFORCE, Dr. Prof. Axel Sikora, who is scientific director of Offenburg university Institute for reliable Embedded Systems and Communication Electronics (evESK), just gave an interview. He discusses about actual trends and the current development regarding LoRaWAN® and its significance for the Internet of Things, where STACKFORCE is situated in between.

Regarding the official founding date of STACKFORCE GmbH in 2014, we are currently facing our sixth year as a company. But in fact, the company’s roots and thus the gained experience reach back much further.
