Developer Tools & Resources
At its core, Iridium is a technology platform enabling connectivity and communication anywhere on Earth. These core technologies — both hardware and software — allow us to collaborate with licensed partners at every stage of development to create solutions to virtually any challenge.
Integrate with the Iridium® Network by:
-
Using an Iridium IoT Terminal
A self-contained satellite IoT device that can either act as a stand alone IoT solution, or be integrated into other remote solutions
-
Integrating with an Iridium Module
A modular component to integrate into your own hardware
-
Developing around Iridium Licensed Core Technology
To design and build completely custom hardware for connecting to the network
-
Building an Application
Allowing the users to access network through smartphones and tablets
