Libelium has successfully achieved the international quality standard ISO 9001:2008, the international environmental standard ISO 14001:2004 and the international occupation health and safety OHSAS 18001:2007, at our Libelium facilities. Read more.

Alicia Asín, Libelium's CEO, will be presenting the topic: “Major Challenges in Smart City Projects: What Does a 1,000 Node Deployment Require” in the Conference Hall.

The 4th Annual Energy Harvesting & Storage Europe (15th-16th May, Berlin - Germany) will be the world's largest conference and exhibition covering the very latest commercial opportunities, markets and the systems that need energy harvesting to power sensors.

This event is co-located with the annual event Wireless Sensor Networks & RTLS. The co-located conference will be shedding light on the latest uses and technology trends from major innovators in the wireless sensor, real time location system and active RFID sectors.

Given recent public alarm at the safety of our food sources, this accuracy of monitoring our food supply during the transport and distribution increases consumer confidence and protects community health and the food industry's integrity. To prevent food insecurity, we require reliable food systems at each stage of the food cycle: from food production and harvesting, during  transport and distribution, at the shops we buy at and in the social settings wherever we consume food, and in the management of the resulting bio-waste outputs. Libelium's Waspmote sensors can be used to monitor and control the whole food cycle. Read more.

Libelium announces the launch of the new Wifi module for the Waspmote sensor platform. The new radio module adds an extra layer of intelligence to the nodes allowing them to send the collected data to any web server located in the Cloud using the HTTP protocol. The new Wifi sensor nodes will be also capable of sending data to any nearby iPhone or Android device by creating direct links with them. Read more
