Device connections
Connect sensors, RFID readers, scales, gateways, and machine controllers, whatever language they speak.
Industry solutions / IoT
Turning connected devices into information you can use.
Software that collects data from sensors, readers, and machines reliably, and turns it into alerts, dashboards, and records people act on.
How I’d approach it
Fit the software to the work, not the other way round.
The devices are usually the easy part. The hard part is deciding what the readings mean and what should happen next. I start by agreeing which events actually matter to the business, then build the software that collects, checks, and acts on them.
Reliability is built in from day one. The system notices when a device goes quiet, copes with network drops without losing data, and stays responsive when hundreds of readings arrive at once.
I've built software that sits between RFID readers and business systems, and can help with hardware prototypes when a project needs one.
What the software can handle
The everyday work, done properly.
Typical areas I build for. Most projects start with one or two of these and grow from there.
Reliable data collection
Gather readings without losing or doubling them, even when the network drops.
Alerts that matter
Notify the right person when a reading is out of range or a device goes quiet.
Live dashboards
Show device status and key readings on screens that stay fast when data pours in.
History & reporting
Keep the readings you need for trends and investigations, and skip the noise.
Business system links
Feed meaningful events into inventory, maintenance, or production systems.
What it can look like
Built for connected devices.
Examples of the kinds of screens and tools I build for this kind of work.

How a project runs
Three steps, start to finish.
Small, steady steps with something real to look at early, and you involved the whole way through.
-
01
Decide what matters
Agree which readings and events need action, and who needs to know.
-
02
Build a dependable pipeline
Connect the devices and make sure every reading is collected once, checked, and stored.
-
03
Put the data to work
Add alerts, dashboards, and links into the business systems that use it.
