!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] is an [IPv6]-based, [Low-Power Wide Area Network] [Mesh Network] technology for [Internet of Things] ([IoT]) products.


[{$pagename}] uses [6LoWPAN], which, in turn, uses the [IEEE 802.15.4] [wireless] [protocol] with [Mesh Network] [communication], as does [Zigbee] and other systems. [{$pagename}] is different in that it is IP-addressable, with [cloud] access and [AES] [encryption]. A [BSD]-licensed [Open Source] [implementation] of [{$pagename}], called "[OpenThread]", has been released by [Google]
