Project Summary

Cumulations provided development and design-extension services for a European B2B IoT data-gathering platform, building app components to extract sensor data from smartwatches and custom hardware and enabling mobile viewing. Their problem-solving, testing, and communication helped the client approach MVP readiness for industrial and medical partners.

Key Challenges

The client lacked an in-house development team and needed external development partners.
Develop an IoT platform that gathers data from smartwatches and external hardware and displays it on mobile devices.
Implement algorithms and sync collected data with the cloud while ensuring platform scalability and robustness.

Project Deliverables

Native Android plugins to interface with smartwatches
Applications to extract sensor data and send it to mobile phones
Communication interface and plugins for the mobile app
Mini-application to extract data from custom hardware
Small sections/components of the mobile application and related plugins

Project Solution

Cumulations developed native Android components and plugins to extract sensor data from Android smartwatches and send it to mobile devices, created communication interfaces and plugins for the mobile app, and built a mini-application to read and extract data from custom hardware based on the client's initial design. They extended the designs, implemented the code and software, and tested the work primarily on Android while aiming for platform independence. They proposed technical approaches (e.g., multiple callback functions) to solve integration challenges with external sensors.

Project Outcome

Close to achieving an MVP for the B2B IoT platform.
Provided a solid foundation for future extensions, including potential iOS work.
Responsive communication and effective sprint participation ensured timely support and collaboration.
Enabled local demonstrations for industrial and medical partners.
