Microtronics ONE is a set of fully integrated tools and examples to get you started easily and accompany you throughout your whole product journey, from initial ideation to operating it at scale. Microtronics ONE allows you to focus on the business objectives, silently tackling obstacles to great extent, such as customizing, lifecycle and permission management, security, performance and connectivity as a whole. Interoperable and from one single vendor.
Microtronics ONE is a unified foundation to build flexible IoT use cases upon. It is more than a standard, a protocol, a messaging systems, a device management platform. In a way it is all of that, readily integrated. On first contact, Microtronics ONE is best experienced by stepping through the quick start guide and demo example, with a cup of coffee and a starter kit at hand. Give it a try, or feel free to have a sneak peek at the introductory docs, if you are still hesitant.
The application framework is built with reusable libraries and lifecycle management in mind. This unlocks ground-breaking resource efficiency during the design and lifecycle management of the product.
While a product specifically addressing developers is a recent addition to our portfolio, both the underlying technology and Microtronics as a company is ever-evolving since 2006. We build cellular industrial-grade IoT solutions since before the term was coined, with tens of thousands of active devices in the field in this very moment. As a partner, Microtronics is committed to sustainable development and reliable operations, as underlined with system level certifications according to ISO 9001, 14001, 27001. Microtronics is 100% IoT.
The technology stack is direction-agnostic. You can upload data from devices to the cloud or do the exact opposite. Access is one area of application where this is used successfully, for various remote gate control scenarios, to give an example.
For every mobile application cellular connectivity is the way to go. However, in many fixed installations cellular connectivity allows simple plug and play installation procedures. The simplicity in installing or activating consumer or professional equipment is an important reason why many applications integrate cellular connectivity into their product. Additionally keep the connectivity infrastructure separated from the local corporate network is in many cases the most efficient way to go.
While we cannot definitely answer this for you, from experience: chances are, yes. More generally put, cellular connectivity is your go-to-option if you need to reliably connect from a remote location with no wired network infrastructure, perhaps without a power source nearby either, eventually from locations all across the globe, to transmit high resolution data.
That said, cellular connectivity does have its disturbances and mobile network operators (MNOs) do not tend to commit to availability numbers either. Even though connectivity is included as such, the service quality of Microtronics ONE is reliant on MNO delivery with regards to the availability of cellular networks. Yet Microtronics ONE has several resilience mechanisms built in, such as local buffering and auto-reconnects, to overcome temporary outages without losing precious data points and, more often than not, without anyone noticing.
Additionally , cellular connectivity in Microtronics ONE is solely depending on an existing uplink, i.e. an available mobile network. Data protection to ensure confidentiality and authenticity, compression, time-oriented, order-preserving transmission etc. is all independently ensured within the protocol.
Not one of our customers so far has later considered switching the uplink mechanism because of insufficient quality of service.
No. Microtronics does not provide mobile network infrastructure or services on its own. Microtronics is partnered with MNOs, who in turn have global roaming agreements with a large network of MNOs.
Connectivity plays an integral role in every IoT use case. Yet it is a tedious technical process that requires alignment among several vendors to reliably set up a communications channel between edge devices and the central infrastructure. Microtronics strives to lower the IoT-tech-barrier as much as possible, so you can delve into the business application right off the bat. We believe that to be a major simplification for customers, compared to engaging with different vendors to get a reliably working technical baseline established.
Most likely, yes. We have successfully put global use cases into operation, in metropolitan and rural areas as well as within buildings. That said, there may be blind spots and it varies in how exactly it works in terms of the locally supported technology (and hence bandwidth, ability to penetrate walls, etc.). We will dive into the nitty gritty details for your specific requirements, so do not hesitate to get in touch with questions.
Microtronics devices can be trimmed as needed with a tailored scripting language (the scripting language is based on Pawn by CompuPhase) and simple markup to describe data structures. Think of it as simplified C. Syntactically similar, yet typeless and without structures, using references while refraining from pointers. Easily adopted by C programmers. Compiled into intermediate language, optimized for efficient execution on an isolated abstract virtual machine on constrained devices.
Both Yes and No, depending on what you need to achieve. At its heart, Microtronics ONE is centered around a battle-proven, proprietary protocol we call UTO (for Universal Transferable Object). UTO is three things at once:
That said, there is not much direct contact with UTO when using Microtronics ONE, as it is all abstracted away.
Therefore
Yes, within the Microtronics ONE ecosphere you can simply share projects on an individual user basis. Users who have access to a project can collaborate simultaneously and remotely
You. Assisted with many inherent aids to avoid mistakes. Like stringent versioning, automatic deployment, the ability to run versions in parallel on different devices and means to recover from deployment failures. To account for multiple hardware generations, distinguish debug, validation and production units, etc. More on this in the docs.
Microtronics ONE runs device scripts in a sandboxed environment, which prevents custom code from wreaking havoc in the underlying device memory or microcontroller registers. Consequently, devices will remain recoverable (custom code cannot brick them) and retain memory integrity. As with any other app store model, however, it is you who needs to check whether the code in question does exactly what’s needed, when needed.
Microtronics ONE unifies cloud features and service delivery, connectivity and mobile data volume, maintenance of device firmware and tenancy-aspects into one billing unit: data operations. Data operations enable a fair, usage-oriented consumption model that scales with the extent one uses the product.
A data operation is one action upon a usage data point. That is, data relevant for your use case. Transferring a single data point to the cloud represents a data operation. Further combination of data points are data operations. Reading via the API, user- or other interfaces consumes data operations as well.
Data operations are preloaded in blocks and then withdrawn per your use case. You can control how resource-intensive your application is, by controlling sensitivity, measurement intervals, caching strategies, etc., thus reduce load on our systems and hence ensure optimized, cost-effective operations. Microtronics ONE equips you with indicators, a historical view and a starting balance to help predicting monthly consumption.
To interactively experience Microtronics ONE apart from delving through screens of documentation, you need a starter kit. The starter kit is a piece of hardware capable of demonstrating
It comes with a starting balance of data operations (see question above), for a hassle-free first evaluation of Microtronics ONE. We can write stacks of papers and you still won’t get the idea as if just trying it out. Yet we want you to know what you get into before committing to bigger packages. Hence the preferred first step in the Microtronics ONE journey is a bit of exploration with a starter kit.
From there, you can proceed in your own pace. Prolong evaluation, restock on data operations, abandon it without having to untie a hidden subscription of sorts, or progress into more elaborate prototyping with your own hard- and software ideas.
