Introducing CHESTER Platform for Industrial IoT Applications
summary
A modular industrial IoT endpoint with concrete details: supports LTE‑M NB‑IoT LoRaWAN and Astrocast satellite using Nordic nRF9160 and nRF52840 radios, an 8 MB SPI NOR for remote bootloading, and CHESTER SDK built on nRF Connect SDK and Zephyr with device tree, Kconfig and module/snippet workflows. The hardware has ~20+ extension modules, battery designs that hit multi‑year lifetimes (example: 3 years typical, a customer with 112 Ah reaches 5 years at 3‑minute reporting), a Python CLI + Hardware Cloud for flashing and telemetry, and about 2–3k deployed devices.
