Abstract

The Internet of Things is a new powerful technology that allows us to control industrial robots, smart homes, vehicles, and a plethora of devices with ease. That is exactly what one of our clients went for to automate the control and maintenance of ventilation systems. Intersog has been leveraging IoT solutions for years, and that was one of the cases when we put our knowledge and skill to good use.

Client

Our Client is one of the U.S. leading providers of energy management solutions based out of Chicago (under NDA). 

Product

Intersog developed an IoT application that allows for remote monitoring and control of ventilation equipment. The application is compatible with iOS and Android devices.

Key Features

User login authentication (PIN-based)
Setup initialization and settings preferences
Control all fans individually or centrally
Rename devices, set fan speed, set timing parameters, or place on continual hold operation
Intuitive design that enables easy set up for a user
Access diagnostics, network, and settings functional for additional control
View of current local weather
PIN setting for the controller to reduce potential misuse
Overlay instructions to guide users
One-click last used settings function per device

Challenge

The Client needed to create a smartphone interface for a solution to enable users (facility engineers and/or residential homeowners) to remotely and centrally control the ventilation equipment. The primary goal is to provide fresh functionality and breathe new life into their existing timer and settings-based controller mechanisms. This client provides middleware firmware and electrical equipment to a wide array of electronics manufacturers. The IoT solution brings a new line of service and capabilities to the business.

Solution

Developing an IoT application based on ZigBee technology that allows seamless transition of data through the mesh network over the long distances

Designing an intuitive UI for the application to ensure the convenience of use

Adding the firmware update feature that sends the data on the status of the device. The API then accepts the data to the user in a comprehensive textual format

Adding an on-demand data calls for updates

Results

The partnership between Intersog and a client resulted in an IoT solution for ventilation systems that allows the individual users to configure, composition, provision, monitor, and centrally control ventilation equipment within a single facility on the combination of WiFi and LAN networks. It also helps reduce the energy and ventilation equipment maintenance cost by predicting failures and notifying the users about the potential risks.
