IoT Hardware: Custom vs. Off-the-shelf | IoT For All Podcast E037 | CoreKinect's Assar Badri

In this week’s episode, we talk about IoT hardware and how to decide which is the best for your use case, common roadblocks with IoT hardware development, the impact LPWAN will have on the Internet of Things (IoT) industry, and how IoT security is handled in IoT hardware development. The senior team of CoreKinect (Assar Badri, CEO and Co-Founder; John Horn, President and Chief Strategy Officer; and Mitchel Kelley, Principal Engineer) join us to discuss how they manage the production of IoT products from engineering design through assembly and manufacturing. The team also shares some of the roadblocks of the custom development process and explains when it makes sense for companies to build custom as opposed to buying off the shelf. We also talk about LPWAN and how the CoreKinect team expects it to change the IoT landscape and how to choose the best partner for your IoT solution or deployment. ~ Learn more about LPWAN, IoT Hardware, and the Internet of Things at http://iotforall.com​ ~ More about CoreKinect: http://www.corekinect.com/ Key Question and Topics from this Episode: (0:00) Welcome and Intro (0:49) Introduction to CoreKinect (2:59) What is custom IoT hardware?
