IoT Platform
Proven Across Industries

Also known as the Industrial Internet or Industry 4.0, Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is reshaping manufacturing processes and products themselves via harnessing sensor data, machine-to-machine (m2m) communication and automation technologies that have existed in the industrial setting for years. This way, IIoT transforms a semi-automated factory of today into a digitally active, synchronised and self-automated production facility.

WolkAbout IoT Platform understands m2m data flow process and serves as a backbone of modern, connected industrial systems. Since it is hardware and communication protocol agnostic, it is easily connected with a broad variety of sensors, controllers, industrial PCs, device gateways and legacy control systems, allowing interoperability and orchestration, while enabling secure integration of these assets with company’s operations and business systems. This allows different parts of a factory to communicate with each other in near real-time and makes the entire production process much easier to monitor, control and automate by using mobile or web applications. Finally, WolkAbout IoT Platform is fully capable of comprehensive process data analytics based on real-time performance. An enormous amount of data which is produced and stored on the Platform helps in identifying failures and inefficiencies rapidly, which then leads to improvements in efficiency, quality, sustainability, more targeted distribution, and supply chain traceability. Applications are numerous, diverse and easily customisable to specific business eco-systems.

IoT has planted its seeds in agriculture and empowered farmers to overcome the enormous hurdles they face. Thanks to these new technologies, agriculture is becoming less dependent on unexpected and harmful environmental variations. By using reliable, yet cheap & easy-to-install sensors and an abundance of insightful data they offer, farmers are incorporating highly productive ways to raise livestock and cultivate the soil, thus improving operational efficiency.

WolkAbout IoT Platform delivers all the modules necessary to operate a smart farming system, whether the system includes single-purpose connected products, like livestock trackers, or multi-device solutions. By tying together different sensors, connected devices and farming facilities, WolkAbout IoT Platform streamlines the development of such systems. Once an IoT-enabled smart farming solution is in place, farmers can easily track real-time data and make informed decisions. For example, different sensors, which are deployed across the farm and farming equipment and connected to WolkAbout IoT Platform, give farmers a ²⁴⁄₇ visibility into the soil and crop health, status of farming equipment and machinery in use, warehouse conditions, livestock behaviour and energy consumption level.

WolkAbout IoT Platform is used for a wide range of smart farming use cases:

As the financial services institutions (FSIs) rely heavily on gathering, processing and creating value from data, the IoT may be as broadly transformational to them as the Internet itself. The benefits from having more comprehensive, real-time data about their own or their clients’ physical assets are related to improved operational performance, customer experience and product pricing. Indeed, banks, insurance carriers and firms in the commercial real estate industry are capitalising on the connections between mobile payments, wearables and sensors. There are numerous use cases that IoT can deliver to FSIs and which have already proven themselves, from tellerless bank branches to embedded payment cards. Connected devices are also helping FSIs in using sensors and analytics to gather more information about customers and offer more personalised services, as well as to track assets and shipments. Perhaps the most mature use case involves the development of usage-based insurance, in which telematics system in cars or, increasingly, smartphone apps automatically provide insurance carriers with the information on vehicle driving history and driver performance. The same logic can be applied to health and home insurance if the users voluntarily agree to share data from their household devices or wearables. Another example is in the commercial real estate, where sensors in commercial buildings can help companies better manage energy usage, environmental comfort and security.

WolkAbout IoT Platform allows FSIs to easily connect, manage, monitor and control disparate devices and applications, combining them into a complete solution, which is valuable since many pieces of information in financial services industry have roots in the physical world. This way, the Platform enables FSIs to gather, analyse and transform real-time customer and sensor data into meaningful information, so they could be better in predicting financial risk, anticipating customer service needs, and offering personalised product offerings to each customer.
