Remote environmental sensing with AI
Introducing BME688, the very first environmental gas sensor from Bosch, which combines Artificial Intelligence (AI) and sensor technology to detect integrated high-linearity and high-accuracy pressure, humidity and temperature.
“For many of todays IoT applications we need To make the sensor useful in the field, connectivity is required. This is why we have made our IronLink Lora Communication board fully compatible with the BME688. Combining this with IronLink will enable customer’s to not only develop for application’s in the home of office but for remote or outdoor applications too.” Ali, IronLink developer.
‘Bosch Sensortec has announced the BME688, the first air quality MEMS sensor that combines gas, humidity, temperature and barometric pressure sensing with innovative artificial intelligence (AI) capability; essentially creating the world’s smallest four-in-one air quality measurement solution. This single device enables customers to reduce their total cost of ownership, cut their development time and simplify the design.’
It is suitable for the latest, customized detection applications, from food spoilage to forest fire’s, by detecting gases, and tracking temperature and humidity changes simultaniously. The AI features and new BME AI-Studio software enables easier development custom solutions for tailored use cases.

“The BME688 combines reliable high-precision sensors with wide-ranging gas detection and innovative AI capabilities in a single package,” says Dr. Stefan Finkbeiner, CEO at Bosch Sensortec. “This enables our customers to rapidly develop the next generation of applications designed to improve well-being, lifestyle and sustainability.”
There are many advantages to sampling gases in the field instead of the laboritory, the new algorithms that are utilized by the 688 devices are far more reliable in evaluating actual conditions.
The BME688 has been developed for mobile and connected applications where size and low power consumption are important facors. The sensor is very compact, measuring just 3.0 x 3.0 x 0.9 mm3. Current consumption can be set between 2.1 µA and 11 mA depending on the required data rates and functions, and can be optimized with the BME AI-Studio.

Does the eSIM work out of the box?
The embedded SIM card is not pre-activated, the IronLink is ready to transmit data as soon as you top up the sim card.
Does it come with data?
All IronLink LTE devices are eligible for 10 Euros worth of free data. Simply register your device's with us and claim your data to get connected.
Are SMS messages included with the eSIM?
The SIM includes 10 Euros of free data.
Do I have to use the embedded SIM?
We provide the eSIM to make fleet management cheaper and reduce overheads, but use of the eSIM is not mandatory. We provide a micro SIM connector on the back of the board so you may use any provider of cellular data.
Can I use the eSIM and an external SIM card?
Absolutely, the eSIM and regular sim card are connected to a multiplexer and can be easily switched in software. The eSIM is generally more rugged than a standard SIM card and makes an great backup in the case of a failure.
