Business Challenges

IoT Design & Deployment

The primary challenge was to design and deploy an IoT gateway that not only served as a reliable communication hub for connected devices but also featured a comprehensive fleet management system.

The concept was to improve operational efficiency, optimize resource utilization, and provide real-time insights into the fleet's performance. The solution is to be deployed in different storage facilities, bringing immediate financial return and benefits.

Accurate Data Reporting

Ensure IoT solution can preserve stored goods by maintaining stable temperature and humidity levels. Optimize energy consumption, reduce operational costs, and streamline maintenance processes.

Solution should adhere to industry regulations and standards regarding the storage of temperature-sensitive goods.

Technology Solution

Requirement Analysis

Our team started with thoroughly understanding the requirements of fleet management, IoT gateway including real-time tracking, predictive maintenance, and data analytics.

Identifying Hardware

Choosing suitable hardware components for the IoT gateway involved processing power, memory, and connectivity options.

Next the team developed an embedded software involved creating device drivers, implementing communication protocols, and ensuring seamless integration with the fleet management software.

Web-based Interface

Designing an intuitive web-based interface allowed users to monitor and manage their fleet in real-time.

Deep level testing was performed to ensure the reliability and scalability of the gateway. This includes unit testing, integration testing, and real-world simulation of fleet scenarios.

Developed Site Monitoring Solution

We built a site monitoring solution with wireless sensors and central gateways. The system uses LTE connectivity for real-time monitoring.

A breed of highly evolved IoT capabilities enabled the team to create precise monitoring. Admins and other users receive notifications as the temperature and humidity is about to exceed the desired levels.

The solution relies on data interface options (APIs) to connect the storage company’s IT. It allows them to visualize the temperature and humidity levels on a dashboard. Additionally, the company’s customers can also check the storage conditions in real time.

Value Delivered

Real-Time Data Gathering

The development of a Linux-based IoT gateway with integrated fleet management enhanced the efficiency and effectiveness of client ecosystems. The IoT gateway provided real-time visibility into the fleet's location, status, and performance, enabling efficient decision-making.

Accurate Decision Making

The insights were helpful to make proactive maintenance, reducing downtime and optimizing fuel consumption, leading to substantial cost savings. The presence of modular design allowed for easy scalability, accommodating the addition of new devices.

Advanced security measures ensured the integrity and confidentiality of the data transmitted, addressing concerns related to unauthorized access.

Data Gathering from Multiple Sensors

After deploying the monitoring solution and API data interface, the company was able to consistently maintain temperature and humidity levels. It helped the storage company dramatically improve customer trust by showing temperature and humidity in real time.

Moreover, the IoT gateway was compatible with smart light sensors, motion sensors, pressure sensors, water sensors, sound sensors, gas sensors and more. Crucially, the solution also helped the company save substantial labor cost by automating tedious tasks. Prompt notifications from different sensors shared by the IoT gateway helped site managers to ensure consistent service quality.
