LTE and solar power systems enable remote structural monitoring in locations without reliable grid power or internet connectivity. These autonomous systems combine cellular data transmission with solar panels and battery storage to operate for years in remote locations nationwide. We deploy across bridges, dams, wind farms, and rural infrastructure where traditional monitoring would be impractical or cost-prohibitive. Our LTE modules provide secure data transmission with fallback options, while solar optimization ensures power availability even in cloudy regions. Systems include power management algorithms that maximize battery life and data transmission efficiency. We provide nationwide coverage with redundant cellular networks and satellite backup options, ensuring critical structural data reaches owners regardless of location or weather conditions.
