ECSEL 2016 IA SCOTT Realtime Embedded AB

Important results from the project

The goal for the project was to expand on Internet of Things using wireless smart sensors and actuators, and to guarantee security, integrity and reliability. This has been fulfilled completely in line with our expectations. The project has more specifically addressed wireless connected sensors and actuators using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). The main application for RTE´s part of the project has been industry automation. Major efforts have been made to guarantee security, integrity and reliability. The project has reached a technology readiness level of 7 with a target set to 6-7.

Expected long term effects

One specific objective has been to achieve new market opportunities, which has been met more than well through one successful major customer project by using SCOTT´s reference architecture. We have seen major time savings for the customer project as well as much improved quality and security of the result. The project has finally resulted in a demonstrator, which is a connected aquarium, with wireless connected sensors using Bluetooth Low Energy, symbolizing an industrial IoT application. It is often used in customer visits to the office - both physical and digital.

Approach and implementation

The project has been part of an EU project, which has developed a reference architecture for industrial IoT applications. Many of the demonstrators used the reference architecture, including our own project. This has resulted in both a broadening of competence from the EU project, and a deepening in knowledge in regards of our own demonstrator. It has been extra successful to conduct a customer project in parallel to our SCOTT-project, which has been able to verify advantages for the reference architecture with respect to time, resources, quality, and security.
