Introducing the Swarm Eval Kit

July 29, 2021

Today we are excited to introduce a new product that makes the Swarm satellite network more accessible than ever: the Swarm Eval Kit! This out-of-the-box satellite communications kit allows even non-techy users to send GPS locations and messages through their phones, and more technical users to build IoT sensors that can relay data through the Swarm network from anywhere on the planet.

The Eval Kit allows anyone to transmit on the Swarm network, whether you’re looking to simply send messages to friends via your cell phone or build a sophisticated IoT device using our technology and network.

The Kit comes ready out-of-the-box so users can start sending messages and GPS locations in minutes via a web app. Whether you’re camping in the backcountry, staying at a remote cabin, or spending the weekend on a boat, the Eval Kit lets you stay in touch with friends and family anywhere, at all times.

For more technical users, the Kit also comes equipped with everything you need to build an IoT device, from temperature sensors to weather stations to asset trackers. Extensive developer documentation supports users who want to program and customize their Kit beyond its out-of-the-box capabilities, and everyone can track upcoming satellite passes over any given location here.
