Overview

A revolutionary, self-sustaining IoT edge device designed to connect single environmental sensors to the cloud effortlessly. Integrated solar power, cellular connectivity, and smart sensor detection make deployment instantaneous.

The Aspen 10 is a compact, rugged Internet of Things (IoT) edge device that simplifies the connection of environmental sensors to the cloud. Designed as a complete, self-sustaining system, it integrates a data logger, solar panel, rechargeable battery, and cellular modem into a single weather-resistant enclosure. It solves the complexity of remote monitoring by automating power management, sensor configuration, and data transmission. With its "plug-and-play" SDI-12 sensor detection, the Aspen 10 automatically identifies compatible sensors, retrieves the optimal measurement program from our cloud platform, and begins streaming data immediately—eliminating the need for complex programming or wiring in the field.

Detailed Description

True Plug-and-Play IoT Architecture

The Aspen 10 redefines ease of use in environmental monitoring. It utilizes advanced sensor interface technology that automatically identifies any connected sensor possessing an SDI-12 identification.

Upon connection via the rugged 8-pin M12 connector, the device reads the sensor's ID and publishes it to the cloud. In return, it instantly receives a customized measurement configuration and program tailored specifically for that sensor and application. This seamless handshake eliminates the need for manual programming or laptop connections in the field.

Self-Sustaining Hardware Design

Engineered for autonomy, the Aspen 10 is a truly self-sustaining device. It houses a high-efficiency integrated solar panel and an internal rechargeable LiFePO4 battery within its compact frame.

  • Solar Efficiency: Keeps the device operational indefinitely with just a few hours of daily sunlight.
  • Reserve Power: The battery provides reserve power for more than one month of operation without charge, ensuring data continuity even during extended periods of darkness or snow cover.
  • All-in-One Enclosure: The data logger, modem, antenna, battery, and solar regulator are all contained in a single, water-resistant (IP67) housing, removing the need for bulky external cabinets.

Cloud Integration & Cybersecurity

Data security is paramount in the IoT landscape. The Aspen 10 employs optimal security measures using Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT) with Transport Layer Security (TLS) mutual authentication.

This ensures that your data is encrypted and secure as it travels to the Geolook Cloud. Once there, users can visualize their data on intuitive dashboards, manage API access for third-party integration, and monitor the health of their entire sensor fleet from a central hub.

Field Deployment & Mobile Verification

Installation is streamlined for rapid deployment. The enclosure features a simple zip-tie mounting system, allowing it to be secured to poles, fences, or structures in minutes without disturbing the environment.

For on-site verification, our dedicated mobile app utilizes Near Field Communication (NFC) and Bluetooth to pair with the device. Technicians can view real-time sensor readings, check battery status, and verify successful data-to-cloud transmission before leaving the site, guaranteeing end-to-end system integrity.

Global Connectivity & Geolocation

The integrated cellular modem utilizes CAT M1 technology, providing robust Low-Power Wide-Area Network (LPWAN) connectivity with worldwide roaming capabilities. This allows the Aspen 10 to operate reliably on local cellular networks across the globe.

Additionally, a built-in Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver automatically tags the installation location. This geolocation metadata is transmitted to the cloud, automatically mapping your assets and simplifying the management of large, dispersed sensor networks.
