BUILDING A FULLY DISTRIBUTED INTERNET OF THINGS DATA INFRASTRUCTURE.
The Things Network is building a network for the Internet of Things by creating abundant data connectivity, so applications and businesses can flourish.
The technology we use is called LoRaWAN and it allows for things to talk to the internet without 3G or WiFi. So no WiFi codes and no mobile subscriptions.
It features low battery usage, long range and low bandwidth. Perfect for the internet of things.
The Things Network is a proud contributor member of the LoRa Alliance.
You are the network.
Our network is built by you - the people. You can contribute by placing a gateway and expand our network. The more gateways are placed, the larger the coverage.
At this moment, there are a lot of gateways up and running along with 1300 Kickstarter gateways
