Digi’s SmartSense Open Platform Unveiled at NRF 2023

The rapid digitalization of the retail industry has given rise to an increased need for interoperability, and companies at this year’s NRF are demonstrating innovations  geared toward helping businesses do just that.

One such company is Digi, an IoT connectivity provider which unveiled its IoT Sensing-as-a-Service open platform, SmartSense.

The platform allows users to configure IoT sensing and monitoring solutions with third-party sensing devices and management systems, enabling personalized asset monitoring and process digitization.

“The IoT Sensing-as-a-Service open platform is an evolution designed for operating within the new ecosystem of applications used by the modern cloud-based enterprise,” said Guy Yehiav, Digi president of SmartSense by Digi. “Our customers increasingly desire flexible, best-of-breed solutions that integrate with their existing tech stacks to simplify the complexities of specific use cases.” 

Potential applications include food service, health care and the wider retail industry. Digi says the system can work to connect and streamline the entire supply chain of these sectors.

“Whether it’s leveraged for inventory accuracy, workforce management, loss prevention or asset monitoring, the transformative approach we’re undertaking will further position our company to align with this new ecosystem for years to come,” said Yehiav.
