ioBridge makes it easy for professionals and enthusiasts to monitor and control nearly anything via their smart phone or web app using our general purpose web gateways.
How it Works
Web Gateways
ioBridge offers a range of web gateways or modules that connect products and devices to the Internet. Our standard web gateways require an Ethernet connection and custom Wi-Fi. Zigbee and other wireless options are also available.
Gateway technology provided with ioBridge is available as off-the-shelf units that may be purchased through our online store or as technology that may be integrated into products to Internet-enable them. ioBridge’s gateway technology is cost-efficient and easy-to-use, and it typically does not require changes to network settings or firewalls.
General Purpose Ethernet and Wi-Fi Web Gateways
ioBridge web gateways include the original ioBridge IO-204, the IO-201 Wi-Fi, the Gamma Pro and the Gamma Pro Wi-Fi. Ethernet or Wi-Fi options are available, allowing for plug-and-play configuration and operation. Easily attach sensors or actuators to the Internet in seconds.
Sensors and Actuators
Access a comprehensive range of ioBridge-manufactured and third-party sensors and actuators that are compatible with ioBridge web gateways. These sensors and actuators are typically small circuits that plug directly into one of the web gateway channels.
ioBridge classifies its sensors and actuators into two types: Function Boards that use the analog input or digital inputs and outputs, and Smart Boards that extend the functionality of the web gateway.
Function Boards
Function boards are small plug-in circuits that use an I/O channel in its native I/O mode. It may use one or more signal lines (digital in, digital out, analog in). Function boards are typically paired with a matching dashboard display or widget, which is tailored to suit the function.
» Channel Tester (Test all I/O channel signal lines)
» Temperature Probe (Measure temperature)
» DPDT Relay Board (Actuate a relay from the digital output)
» Ambient Light Sensor (Measure light)
» Terminal Board (Adapt to screw-terminal-style connections with attachment points)
» Buzzer Board (Emit 2kHz tone at 85dB)
» Serial LCD (Display messages using any serial connection)
» Humidity Sensor (Measure 0% to 100% relative humidity)
» Ultrasonic Range Finder (Measure range)
Smart Boards
An ioBridge Smart Board extends the functionality of the host module and provides more complex functionality than function boards.
» Servo Controller Smart Board (IO-204 Only)
» X10 Smart Board (IO-204 Only)
» Serial Smart Board (IO-204 Only)
