WisGate Edge Lite 2
Boost your industrial IoT solutions with a reliable and secure gateway for LoRaWAN® connectivity with deep indoor coverage, even in multi-story buildings.
Overview
The Arduino Pro WisGate Edge Lite 2 powered by RAKwireless™ ensures secure and reliable connectivity for a wide range of professional applications and is suitable for medium-sized to wide area coverage in industrial environments. Its deep coverage indoors makes it ideal for applications in multi-story buildings – such as apartment buildings, multi-level parking lots and factories.
It offers an intuitive out-of-the-box user experience for easy setup and diagnostics, as well as exhaustive tutorials and technical documentation, and comes with an enclosure designed for efficient cooling and optional DIN rail mounting.
Complementing the MKR and Portenta SOM boards, the Arduino IoT Cloud platform and the other LoRa® components in the Arduino ecosystem, WisGate Edge Lite 2 enables you to create and deploy complete and industrialized IoT/IIoT and I4.0 applications – wrapping both RAKwireless™’s specific expertise and Arduino’s smooth user experience into high-quality solutions that connect your LoRa® devices better than ever, from smart cities to logistics and building automation.
Key benefits include:
- Secure Ethernet, Wi-Fi or LTE connectivity
- Rapid setup and diagnostics, backup and data logging thanks to SD card slot
- Deep coverage indoors, ideal for multi-story buildings
- Enclosure designed for efficient cooling; it allows for wall and DIN rail mounting (optional)
- WisGateOS, powered by RAKwireless™, based on open source OpenWRT and fully customizable
- Ideal to implement private networks directly connected to cloud platforms; compatible with public networks
- Limited cabling for installation thanks to Power over Ethernet (POE)
- Comprehensive technical documentation by RAKwireless™

This project shows how to create a security system using the camera of an Arduino Nicla Vision board. The system automatically triggers a camera snapshot when presence is detected. Presence is detected when the system detects a sound level that exceeds a configurable threshold. The whole system is controlled by an Arduino Cloud dashboard.

Shortly after attending a recent tinyML workshop in Sao Paolo, Brazil, Joao Vitor Freitas da Costa was looking for a way to incorporate some of the technologies and techniques he learned into a useful project. Given that he lives in an area which experiences elevated levels of pickpocketing and automotive theft, he turned his attention to a smart car security system. His solution to a potential break-in or theft of keys revolves around the incorporation of an Arduino Nicla Vision board running a facial recognition model that only allows the vehicle to start if the owner is sitting in the driver’s seat. The beginning of the image detection/processing loop involves grabbing the next image from the board’s camera and sending it to a classification model where it receives one of three labels: none, unknown, or Joao, the driver. Once the driver has been detected for 10 consecutive seconds, the Nicla Vision activates a relay in order to complete the car’s 12V battery circuit, at which point the vehicle can be started normally with the ignition. Through this project, da Costa was able to explore a practical application of vision models at-the-edge to make his friend’s car safer to use. To see how it works in more detail, you can check out the video below and delve into the tinyML workshop he attended here.
