Formal

IPv6 over Low -Power Wireless Personal Area Networks (6LoWPAN) is the name of a concluded working group in the Internet area of the IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force).

Practical

The 6LoWPAN concept originated from the idea that the Internet Protocol could and should be applied even to the smallest devices, and that low-power devices with limited processing capabilities should be able to participate in the Internet of Things.

New Generation Sensors

New Generation Sensors S.r.l. (NGS) is an Italian start-up company established in 2015, spin-off of Scuola Superiore Sant’Anna (SSSA). NGS has strong expertise in the development of advanced wireless systems following the Internet of Things vision. NGS is currently focusing its efforts on the development of smart solution toward the Factory 4.0, continuing the path started with the ENEL Smart Plant order that has permitted the deployment of 100 NGS sensors within the Federico II power plant in Brindisi (Italy). Finally, NGS is working on different scenarios: Smart Agriculture (shown at the Ericsson Innovation Day), Smart City and ITSs (a prototype of the proposed Logistics 4.0 experiment was shown at the 2016 ETSI plugtest in Livorno).
