The internet of things (IoT) has re-defined the technological landscape in the last decade beyond people’s imagination. IoT is not only becoming a technical but also a social phenomenon, changing people’s perception of devices around the environment they live in.
Efftronics Systems’ contribution in this culture of connected devices.
Efftronics has been working in IoT and Smart cities domain. Before IoT we used to develop data acquisition systems. Recent years, we have been working on use cases around key verticals in IoT. We are building an ecosystem of IoT solutions to bring in predicaments of the assets. Using this we are improving the availability of the assets. In smart cities we are working around IoT solutions for water distribution, where we are working to reduce unaccounted water, increase the quality of the water and reduce cost of operation. All our solutions are aimed at delivering better value to the customer using IoT technology
Gartner predicts the price of IoT sensors will come down in 2019, which will enable more companies to use them to gain insights in various industries. This is how Efftronics Systems providing insight for enhancing wealth of the customers in different segments of industry
Not just the cost of sensors but the pricing model of Electronics too, is reducing all together drastically. As a result of this, we see IoT penetrating into various verticals. This will induce a significant change in the verticals. Now, we are focusing on key verticals such as transportation, and cities. We intend to develop key solutions where we can bring in truthful information to the customer using these IoT devices. For example, we provide energy meters. Using energy meter, the customer will know the consumption of energy and accordingly make savings based on the data. We provide water meters, by allowing water distribution or societies identify the areas where wastage of water is maximum and take measures to reduce it. Likewise, we are able to conserve the resources for enhancing the wealth of the customer.
IoT services and solutions Efftronics providing to customers in order to help them transform their industry into a Digital Enterprise
We are working on three main verticals in IoT- Railways, Smart cities, and Connected Home solutions. In railways, we work on monitoring the signalling and leveraging this we are able to enhance the availability of the equipment. Efftronics is using AI, ML and IoT to predict the failure and do a predictive maintenance of the assets. Similarly in Smart Cities we are working on intelligence transport, where we are able to reduce the travel time using adaptive traffic control systems. These are the new state of our traffic signal which has got vehicle detectors. We are also working on Water treatment domain where we monitor the water contamination situation in the city and identify the unaccounted-ness of water in the cities. In smart buildings, we are bringing in innovative solutions like smart lighting and home automation thereby facilitating ambiance without compromising with comfort to the people living in the buildings.
Such advancements are accompanied with great success stories. Few things that Efftronics registered in its IoT-Portfolio
Efftronics has multiple success stories. Efftronics made an IoT implementation for water distribution system in Vijayawada. This implementation enabled the city of Vijayawada to reduce the unaccounted water from 32 percent to 8 percent and secure huge savings to municipalities. In another project at Gujarat’s Gandhinagar, Efftronics built an adaptive traffic control system which was successful in reducing the journey time of citizens by more than 30 percent. These are the kind of success figures we registered in implementation.
Further Efftronics plan in terms of innovation or geographical expansions
Efftronics wants to be a very strong player in the verticals that it has chosen, such as signalling in railways, smart cities and smart homes. In the years to come, efforts are underway to expand ourselves beyond the country to overseas markets like North America and Europe as well.
