What was our challenge?
Our client manufacturer of Flow Meters with Modbus informed us about a peculiar situation. It has its majority of clients in China, where a significant number of the factories are implementing digital flow meters which are Modbus-capable. This means, here the companies are not only looking for smart hardware but they are also looking for complete end-to-end solutions with remote monitoring support.
How did we resolve it?
- We created an IoT Gateway Hardware which can connect, configure and collect data from 30+ devices and push it to a remote monitoring server or Internet for Remote support.
- It took us 12 weeks to complete the project from idea to deployment (H/W & S/W)
What technologies were used?
- Google App Engine
- Cloud Functions
- Cloud Datastore
- Google Analytics
- Task Queue
- Java
- Android Things
What are the main IOT Gateway features?
- A configurable Modbus Engine with up to 30 devices.
- Configurable 10 parameters for each device for display, logging, SMS, Email.
- BLE and Mobile App for end-user configuration for gateway
- Inbuilt FTP server for Log Files
- Completely Written in Java.
- OTA (Over the Air) Upgrade support And Device Management via Cloud.
