Network Connectivity and Release 2

Hello to all the UWB Developers,

I understand, that at this point Decawave is working in the Release 2 of Info and
software related to the new DWM1001 Firmware/Software/Hardware Solution.

As the actual documents says, in the release two we are going to be able to add
network connectivity features to the DWM1001 (Cool for create a Gateway or a complete RTLS Solution)

My questions are:

[list]
[]Are you planning to add Ethernet connection?
[
]If Yes, are you planning to use a Ethernet IC like W5500 from Wiznet through SPI connection?
[]Are you planning to add Wifi Connectivity using an embedded Solution like ESP8266 or similar?
[
]Do you have an estimated date to do the next release?
[/list]
Best regards.

Hello,

Are you planning to add Ethernet connection?
-> Ethernet connection will be via Raspberry PI Gateway connected via SPI to a DWM1001 Bridge node.

If Yes, are you planning to use a Ethernet IC like W5500 from Wiznet through SPI connection?
-> See above. Customization of the gateway would be possible.

Are you planning to add Wifi Connectivity using an embedded Solution like ESP8266 or similar?
-> No

Do you have an estimated date to do the next release?
-> End of April time frame. This will be a firmware update and code for the Raspberry Pi gateway will be available

The Raspberry Pi gateway takes UWB Network and IoT data via SPI from a DWM1001 Bridge Node. The Gateway will have a MQTT Broker and HTTP Server and other features. A basic Web App will allow bidirectional comms to/from the UWB network.

Hi Kenneth, please let us know what is the current status of the release 2. How likely will it be available by the end of Q1? Could you give an estimate of the release day/week?
