DESCRIPTION
Introduction to DASH7, an ultra-low energy wireless data technology used by the military and now being used by commercial companies to great effect. DASH7 uses 10% or less of the energy of ZigBee, has range of 250 meters, penetrates walls made of concrete, operates globally without interference from WiFi routers, and does so at a lower cost than ZigBee.TRANSCRIPT
