R2I Protocol · Robot-to-Infrastructure

Hardware

The protocol is software. When the infrastructure is modern, it runs on it. When it is analogue — and most of the world is — these are the devices that give it a voice.

The hardware exists so the analogue world can take part: it is the enabler of the retrofit, not the product.

URBANODE NODE — the main family

It turns existing infrastructure into a node of the protocol: it runs the five checks locally, it is the final authority, it operates without a network and it acts on the equipment through the interface it already has (volt-free relay, digital input, API).

The NODE 100, a compact square black enclosure seen at three quarters against a dark background. Its front carries a mint outline of light, the URBANODE logo and, below it, the name NODE 100.

NODE 100

Indoor / light

Made to order

Doors, turnstiles, lifts, service points, buildings. Compact format, rail or surface mounting.

The NODE 300, an upright black enclosure seen at three quarters, with cooling fins along its left side, a short antenna on top and screws at the four corners of its face. On the front, a mint bar of light, the URBANODE logo and the name NODE 300.

NODE 300

Outdoor / rugged

Made to order

Barriers, docks, terminal gates, construction sites, service stations. Sealed, wide thermal range, industrial power.

The NODE 700, a wide, solid black enclosure with reinforced corners and two antennas on top. On the front, the URBANODE logo, the name NODE 700 and a mint bar of light beneath it.

NODE 700

Critical

Made to order

Ports, heavy industry, environments with hardened requirements: dual power supply, hardened secure element, extended radio. The ATEX and marine variants derive from it, for service stations and saline environments.

Common elements

  • Secure element with key custody
  • Verified boot
  • Proximity radio
  • IP/cellular connectivity, satellite optional
  • Relay outputs and digital inputs
  • Signed local log to operate without a network

The rest of the family

The LINK, a landscape black enclosure with reinforced corners and vents on both sides. On the front, the URBANODE logo, the name LINK and a mint bar of light beneath it.

URBANODE LINK

The onboard unit (issuer)

Made to order

It gives verifiable identity to a vehicle, machine or vessel that cannot integrate the SDK into its onboard system. Compact enclosure, vehicle power, proximity radio and connectivity, with its own secure element.

The POINT, a flat square wall module in black with rounded edges. A mint line of light runs across it, with the URBANODE logo above and the name POINT below.

URBANODE POINT

The proximity point

Made to order

Reader and proximity module for people: installed next to the door or turnstile, it provides the local channel when the node sits in a cabinet or further away. Wall format, discreet, powered by the node.

The METER, a landscape black enclosure seen at three quarters, with vents on its right side. On the front, a large URBANODE logo, the name METER and a mint bar of light beneath it.

URBANODE METER

The energy session module

Made to order

It brings signed settlement of the energy session to charging points that do not ship with it: it authenticates the asset, authorizes the session and signs the settlement. It is the device with the best commercial story, because the circuit is already validated in production.

The two shapes of the TAG, side by side: a black card the size of a credit card and a black fob with a metal ring. Both carry the URBANODE logo, a mint line of light and the name TAG.

URBANODE TAG

Physical credential

Made to order

Card or fob with a secure element, for staff without a smartphone or environments where phones are not allowed. A complement to the app, not a replacement.
