Internet of Things (IoT)

What is Internet of Things?

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a technology that connects physical devices, such as appliances and vehicles, to the internet. These devices are embedded with software, sensors, and connectivity that enable them to connect and exchange data with other devices and systems over the internet.

IoT has the potential to revolutionize the way we live our lives by making our homes smarter, our cars safer, our cities more efficient, and our businesses more productive.

What is IoT Platform?

An Internet of Things (IoT) platform is a software suite or cloud service that manages device connectivity, hardware, software, processing abilities, and application layers. It facilitates communication, data flow, device management, and the functionality of applications. By providing essential features, IoT Platform reduce both time and cost to develop a new IoT Solution.

Unikom has built an IoT Platform to help you develop new IoT Solution quickly and low cost.

Viettel - Vehicle Tracking

PROBLEM STATEMENT
According to Vietnamese law, all transportation businesses must install a journey monitoring device. Seizing the opportunity, Viettel hopes to deploy a journey monitoring solution combined with its 4G service. To meet the needs of hundred thousands of vehicles, Viettel needs a high-performance and stable IoT solution.

OUR SOLUTIONS
Besides IoT Platform, we also build Big data platform to process a huge amount of data sent from hundreds of thousands of vehicles simultaneously

IoT Platform to store data, process rule engine, remotely control ...
Big data platform: because the data is huge, we deploy a big data platform to analyze the location data and detect dangerous behaviour like speeding.
Dashboard for reporting meet all forms required by the government.
Web/mobile application for user to manage their vehicle.

ADVANTAGES
We have solved the biggest problem of system performance, meeting hundred thousands of simultaneous connections while still keep the stability of the system.

Firefighting Department - Fire Alarm System

PROBLEM STATEMENT
Due to frequent fire and explosion accidents and their serious consequences, the Vietnam Firefighting and Rescue Police Department has proposed building a fire alarm transmission system that allows fire alarms to be transmitted instantly from the location of the fire to the firefighting department via the internet.

OUR SOLUTIONS
This is a technically complex solution because fire alarms require reliability and immediacy. Therefore, we decided to build a comprehensive system that includes fire alarm devices, communication devices, and a cloud system that receives fire alarm information at the office.

Fire alarm device - sensors, sirens and warning lights
IoT Gateway and communication device
IoT Platform - to manage all the fire alarm devices
Cloud system - to manage all the managed locations.

ADVANTAGES
With this comprehensive approach, the fire alarm system becomes safer and more reliable, reducing the time to receive fire alert, thereby making firefighting faster and minimizing damage caused by explosions.

Viettel Construction - Smart Solar

PROBLEM STATEMENTS
Viettel Construction has implemented many solar power projects in Vietnam, and they see an opportunity to deploy a solar power management system to increase revenue. Therefore, they need an IoT solution to monitor and manage solar power plants, helping their customers optimize costs and revenue.

OUR SOLUTIONS
We combine IoT platform and microservice architecture with timeseries database to create a comprehensive solar energy management system

Site and inverter management.
Monitoring of electricity consumption parameters.
Aggregation of power and output in real-time.
Power control.

ADVANTAGES
Now the customer can monitor their solar farm in real time, see the and control the power, make decision to save cost and increase revenue.

Because it is a cloud service, Viettel can easily implement solution for their customer with a little effort. The system can also scale to serve thousands of solar farms, that mean Viettel is ready to expand its business in this field.
