Explore low-power IP connectivity for MCU projects using OpenThread in this informative talk. Delve into the technical aspects of integrating OpenThread to achieve months or years of battery life while maintaining mesh network connectivity. Learn about operations on bare-metal, RTOS, and Linux systems, and gain insights into key technologies like 6lowpan, IPv6, mDNS discovery proxy, and Service Registration Protocol. Discover how to optimize power consumption, adapt IPv6 for 802.15.4 limitations, and implement efficient device addressing and routing. Understand the benefits of Thread as a middle ground between Wi-Fi and Bluetooth LE for battery-powered devices, offering low-power operation with mesh capabilities and IP connectivity.
