General information
- Short Summary
- A Singapore based SME is offering an IoT-based asset tracking device that is fully customisable to perform various additional sensing functions. They are seeking R&D collaboration and test-bedding opportunities with application developers from industries such as asset management, equipment management, logistics and the hospitality industry.
- Full Description
-
A Singapore based SME has developed an IoT-based asset tracking device that is fully customisable to perform various additional sensing functions. The SME has over a decade of experience in design and manufacturing of semiconductors, industrial IoT systems as well as RF design and data communications.
Companies which deploy various assets in the field typically have to manually locate these assets to carry out either servicing tasks or for retrieval. Examples of these assets could be movable items like supermarket trolleys, delivery vehicles, hospital wheelchairs, etc., or non-movable ones like factory machinery and equipment. By attaching small, IoT-based tracking devices to these assets, the asset owner will be able to track and locate them automatically. In addition to tracking, it is often desired to measure and track the operating status and physical parameters of the asset, often via additional sensors embedded into the tracking device. These location and condition data gathered by the asset tracking device can enable further downstream decisions to be made. For example, process enhancement such as predictive maintenance, real-time inventory management, or a simple track and trace operation, etc. Human-based errors can be minimised, increasing operational efficiency.
The miniature sized asset-based tracking device developed by the SME is fully customisable to accommodate other sensors, and is capable of monitoring its own operating conditions and associated environmental parameters. Customers would be able to view the performance of the sensors and assets in real time via a cloud-based dashboard. - Advantages and Innovations
-
The asset tracking device offers:
- Ultra low power operation: long battery life of more than 5 years for certain deployments
- Fully customisable with various sensors and different communication protocols
- Provides communications range up to 10km (within cellular coverage)
- Communication via NB-IoT or LTE (Cat1)
- Web-based dashboard
- Cloud-based data storage
- Miniature, compact size
- Provides automatic alerts via e-mail and other messaging services if asset location is out of range, exceeds boundary conditions or experiencing weak battery power - Stage of Development
