Zerynth Edge Computing & Data Collection Workshop KIT-EWS-01-F016

The Industrial IoT Kit from Zerynth provides a complete hardware platform for developing industrial IoT applications with training from IoT experts, including 8 hours of on-demand lessons in English and Italian, 3 live one-on-one calls and 1 year of zCloud, which includes zDeviceManager device and data management software, data storage for IoT devices and bronze plan zDashboard.

4ZeroBox mounts a powerful ESP32 Microcontroller by Espressif Systems (240MHz, 16Mb Flash, 512KB SRAM) and provides many onboard features like: a DIN-rail mountable case with industrial grade sensor channels, support for Wi-fi, Bluetooth, Ethernet, LoRa, CAN, RS485, RS232, SD Card, JTAG, I2C, SPI; the crypto element ATECC608A from Microchip has been integrated to handle secure connections in an easy manner, exchanging certificates and keys, encrypting messages over TLS protocol and using secure authentication procedures.

4ZeroBox lets the user choose the best installation strategy, adapting it to the specific industrial environment. While allowing to acquire data from the PLC via digital ports - filtering the data onboard to avoid bandwidth overload and waste of cloud resources - it also enables the installation and management of external sensors, for a full Industrial IoT experience.

• Analog and digital ports for connection to industrial sensors and PLC


• Expandable with mikroBUS add-on boards for multiple configurations


• Multi-connectivity such as GSM, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, LoRa, Ethernet


• Flash memory for storing data locally when disconnected


• Secure hardware encryption and block chain-ready


• 16 video workshop lectures to teach the different aspects of integrating and using Industry 4.0 machines.


• Includes all the hardware material for the hands-on section, where participants can work with the 4ZeroBox - a versatile data acquisition unit, programmable in hybrid Python/C.


• Each workshop participant can schedule 3 video calls with a Zerynth engineer to ask questions related to the training lessons or examples included in the workshop. Each call is around 30 minutes

The workshop includes 16 video lectures, dedicated to the different aspects of integrating and using Industry 4.0 machinery.
