Dive into DePIN physical Resources.
We looked at the basics of DePIN (Decentralised physical infrastructure networks) and broke down the various categorisations in the landscape. Today we are focusing on the Physical resource DePINs.
What is DePIN physical Resource?
This is the sector of Decentralised physical infrastructure networks that utilises physical components to adopt decentralisation.
Participants in this sector take part by buying physical components that connect to the decentralised network.
We can categorise the physical resource sector into 2 categories:
- wireless
- sensor
Wireless DePIN physical resource.
The projects in this section use physical components that connect wirelessly with each other, they don't require physical connections as they use the cloud.
5G
the projects in this category utilise 5G connectivity (technology) to integrate decentralisation and cryptocurrency.
LoRaWAN
the projects in this category rely on LoRaWAN (Long Range Wide Area Network)to integrate decentralisation and cryptocurrency.
Wi-Fi
the projects in this category use Wi-Fi (wireless frequency) connectivity (technology) to integrate decentralisation and cryptocurrency.
Sensor DePIN physical resource.
The projects in this section use physical sensor components that rely on input data or reading from different sources. They are categorised by the source of the data to integrate decentralisation.
Mobility
the projects in this category use distance tracking sensors connectivity (technology) to integrate decentralisation and cryptocurrency.
ESG
ESG stands for Environmental, Social, and Governance. It is a set of criteria that is used to evaluate performance in terms of impact on the environment
the projects in this category use distance tracking sensors connectivity (technology) to integrate decentralisation and cryptocurrency.
Geo Location
the projects in this category use location tracking sensors connectivity (technology) to integrate decentralisation and cryptocurrency.
Energy
the projects in this category utilise green energy consumption/emission sensors connectivity (technology) to integrate decentralisation and cryptocurrency.
Health
the projects in this category use health (biomedical) monitoring sensors connectivity (technology) to integrate decentralisation and cryptocurrency.
Conclusion
we have briefly looked at a breakdown of the DePIN physical resource ecosystem. This area is rapidly changing, and new innovations keep being introduced into the space.
