• Many other possibilities

Description

The SeeControl Cloud Service allows embedded systems engineers to quickly assemble scalable 3-tier web applications that collect, analyze and display systems data.

The service is drag and drop so you don't have to script or code to create a web app.

The Service natively supports the following IoT/M2M communication protocols:

• UDP
• TCP
• MQTT
• HTTP
• MODBUS
• CoAP

There is additional support for vendor-specific communication stacks such as GE, CalAmp, Sierra Wireless, etc. Customers can also create their own device adapter using protocol and language of choice.

You can stream data to these data adapters at http://com2.seecontrol.com. We will give you a specific port range for each protocol/device type.

You can also send your data through a device API. Guidance is here.

Once the data has been received by our system. You will use a data abstraction tool to define fields that are in the packets you are sending. For example, if you send a variable field called tmp_123 from a temperature sensor you will tell the SeeControl service that tmp_123 is a a number and specifically a unit of measure called "Temperature" and then select whether Celsius or Fahrenheit. Once that is done, you can use the rest of the system to build a scalable web app, typically in 1-2 days depending on how complex our solution needs to be.
