IOT

Over the years, the internet has undergone a significant transformation. Initially conceived as an alternative communication network for the US defense establishment, it evolved into a platform for the scientific community to publish, archive, and peer-review research papers. Subsequently, it transitioned into a commercial hub facilitating peer-to-peer communications, collaboration, digital marketing, and e-commerce transactions.

With the advent of the Internet of Things (IoT), the internet is undergoing yet another expansion. It now encompasses all "things" – sensors, actuators, embedded systems, controllers, and more, found in vehicles, buildings, grids, factories, and even entire cities. This transformation allows for pervasive data communication, remote monitoring and control, as well as sophisticated analytics. At the enterprise level, IoT strives to unite traditional Information Technology (IT), including enterprise solutions like Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and Customer Relationship Management (CRM), and Local Area Network/Wide Area Network (LAN/WAN) infrastructure, with Operational Technology (OT). The latter comprises Industrial Automation & Control Systems, including Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC), Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA), Distributed Control Systems (DCS), and Home Automation Systems.

Zapidax, possessing expertise in both IT and OT, holds a unique position. We offer integrated IoT solutions that can revolutionize how different stakeholders within an enterprise – customers, suppliers, distributors, logistics service providers, sales forces, production planners, and factory workers – interact and exchange critical data. This transformation significantly impacts the competitive edge of an enterprise's offerings in the market.

The Communications industry is evolving to integrate IoT into its extensive array of wireline and wireless networks. Data generated can now be stored and managed in the cloud, facilitating communication, access, and sharing among different systems. Zapidax offers innovative solutions that seamlessly integrate all five levels of the IoT ecosystem, including Sensors, Gateways, connectivity, Cloud, and data analytics. This integration alleviates the typical challenges associated with IoT implementations, such as dealing with multiple vendors.

With over a quarter-century of experience in Smart/IoT devices such as smart meters and PLC/controllers for power plants and utility networks, Zapidax possesses vital expertise in Industrial IoT and Smart Solutions. This includes Data Sensing/measurement, industry-standard protocols, communication methods like RF, PLC, and cellular technologies, data acquisition/head end software, application development, and analytics solutions. Our projects leverage these capabilities for purposes like rural network monitoring and control, power distribution monitoring and control, smart infrastructure monitoring, and intelligent tool controllers.

Wearable technology plays a pivotal role in enabling IoT in Healthcare. It is currently utilized in the healthcare sector to track patients' health history and monitor data related to patient care. Zapidax has seamlessly integrated patient data into wearable devices, enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of healthcare practices.

Additionally, we have developed remote Smart Home Care solutions tailored for senior citizens, facilitating assisted living through our Gateway platform. Zapidax also boasts a solid track record in leveraging IoT for vehicle telematics, including vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communications, ushering in a new era of connectivity and convenience.
