Embedded engineering, on demand.

Challenge

IVEO needed to measure water height and flow rate inside municipal manholes using equipment originally designed to be fixed, powered and permanently installed. The system had to become portable, battery-powered and capable of transmitting data wirelessly — all while surviving harsh underground conditions.

Solution

We adapted the existing RS485 sensors and connected them to a Meteryx node, which manages power, reads the probes and transmits the data through our LoRaWAN sensor + gateway. To ensure long battery life, we engineered a power-cycling strategy that shuts the sensors down between readings, drastically reducing consumption.

Results

• A fully portable monitoring system that was never meant to be portable.
• Continuous wireless access to water level and flow data.
• Battery autonomy extended through intelligent power management.
• A flexible deployment municipalities can move from site to site as needed.

Challenge

A client's electronic board was failing at high temperatures (85–90 °C). Battery consumption spiked to near-short-circuit levels, causing devices to die in less than a week instead of the expected 3–6 months.

Solution

We performed a full evaluation of the board's electrical behavior under thermal stress, identified the failure points, and redesigned the power architecture and firmware to stabilize consumption. The board was then validated through high-temperature endurance testing.

Results

• Reliable operation at 90 °C and above.
• Battery life restored to months, not days.
• Meets industrial-grade thermal requirements — without redesigning the entire hardware.

Challenge

A heat pump manufacturer needed a complete connected solution: hardware, firmware, cloud service and mobile app. Their goal was to let end-users control their heat pump remotely and allow technicians to diagnose issues before dispatching service personnel.

Solution

We designed the control board, developed the embedded firmware, built the web service and delivered a mobile application for both users and technicians. The system collects performance data, detects anomalies and provides actionable insights for service teams.

Results

• Users can control their heat pump from their phone.
• The manufacturer can remotely monitor all deployed units.
• Service teams send the right resource with the right equipment on the first visit.
• A significant reduction in service costs and a major boost in customer satisfaction.

Challenge

The manufacturer wanted to push efficiency even further by dynamically controlling the circulating pump's flow rate — maximizing COP during high-efficiency periods and minimizing thermal losses during low-efficiency ones.

Solution

We developed a control strategy and firmware module that adjusts pump flow based on environmental conditions (temperature, humidity, time of day). The system slows the flow at night to reduce losses and increases it during optimal conditions to boost performance.

Results

• Improved COP through intelligent flow-rate modulation.
• Better energy efficiency without changing the heat pump's core design.
• A smarter, more adaptive system that enhances an already high-performance product.
