Our story
We are a community of volunteers in Perth Western Australia who are building a free long-range low-power Internet of Things data network for anyone to use to innovate, learn and demonstrate the value of IoT.
This project is run through Perth IoT, a purpose-driven organisation helping many partners achieve the promised outcomes of emerging technology by focusing on people ahead of technology, fact ahead of hype, and sustainable outcomes for our planet ahead of profit.
We are accelerating our efforts through a coordinated effort to acquire gateways, hosts and build experiential learning through Perth Internet of Things Communications Network project - PIoTCN.org
The project will allow the broader workforce community to future-proof themselves with relevant skills needed for the fourth industrial era.
Want to be involved? Join us and host a gateway or help us rollout the network. You can attend our IoT related workshops and collaborate with follow community members to build IoT solutions.
The volunteers of the Perth IoT Community number over 2000 members who collaborate and network through meet-ups. In partnership with the The Things Network we've called the project The Perth IoT Communications Network.
