Liliane Paradise, COO of Miromico, talks about building industrial-grade LoRaWAN devices with Swiss precision, pioneering battery-free sensor systems, and the business case for hybrid battery configurations in critical environments. She shares how Miromico approaches product development from concept to mass production, prioritizing modularity, testability, and long-term sustainability.

• Explains why gateways are the most critical—and often overlooked—component in a LoRaWAN networ
• Breaks down the design philosophy behind Miromico’s modular gateway platform that supports LoRaWAN, BLE, Wi-Fi, and Mioty
• Highlights the business drivers for deploying energy harvesting sensors in schools, hospitals, and office buildings
• Details how Miromico launched the Mirror Inside Lux sensor, a fully battery-free device powered by indoor light with a 60-day supercapacitor backup
• Discusses the limitations of energy harvesting in critical use cases and why hybrid battery systems are the practical path forward
• Walks through Miromico’s product development lifecycle, from fast POC builds to customer-validated MVPs and scalable manufacturing
• Shares how design for testability and manufacturability saves cost during production—every screw, every second matters
• Explores the role of interoperability and standardization in reducing IoT deployment costs
• Explains how the European Cyber Resilience Act will impact IoT device security and reshape manufacturing timelines
• Offers insights into the complementary roles of LoRaWAN and Mioty in building future LPWAN solutions

• Helium Global IoT Coverage - Want to know if Helium coverage exists where you need it? Check out this map!
• Helium Foundation - The Helium Foundation's IoT Working Group (IOTWG) has generously provided support for the first 6 months of shows, please go check them out and consider using the Helium LoRaWAN as a primary or backup on your next deployment. With over a quarter million gateways deployed worldwide, it's likely that you have and can use Helium coverage.
• Support The Show - If you'd like to support the MetSci Show financially, here's where you can donate on a one-time or an ongoing basis. Thank you!
• MetSci Show - If you'd like to use our IoT or AI Data Value calculators, or you'd like to contact me, the MetSci Show site is the best way to do it.
• MeteoScientific Console - Use LoRaWAN - The MeteoScientific Console allows you to use LoRaWAN today. As long as you have Helium coverage (and you probably do, about 90% of populated areas in the world have a gateway within 2 miles), you can onboard a sensor. You can always check coverage at https://explorer.helium.com and switch to the "IoT" tab in the top right.
