SECO S.p.A. is a leading Italian company in the development of hardware and software solutions for the Internet of Things (IoT), Edge Computing, and Artificial Intelligence.
OffGridBox units, devices capable of supplying utilities in isolated critical areas, are not equipped with systems that can guarantee service continuity (energy and drinking water) and connectivity. These are of fundamental importance in emergency situations (reception camps and shelters) and in terms of helping communities living in isolation.
IoT solution integrated into an electronic board with microcontroller architecture driven by specially developed firmware and a system of sensors and actuators specific to the chosen context.
Machine learning techniques necessary to enable the application to autonomously take preventive actions in a wide range of conditions (changing weather conditions, real-time monitoring of energy availability, etc.).
Edge computing solution to bring intelligence to the distributed level on OffGridBox units.
Enables remote control of different OffGridBox units installed in locations even at great distances. The system is able to collect granular data from the unit’s installation context, enabling operational choices necessary for service delivery (heating and water supply, battery charging, etc.).
Enables remote control of different OffGridBox units installed in locations even at great distances.
Make the unit autonomous thanks to machine learning techniques that enable it to understand the operating conditions and take action according to specific algorithms (send alerts, adjust energy consumption as needed, set electricity storage based on the amount of sunlight, etc.).
Launch of a new product, which is experiencing growing demand due to the expansion and improvement of available technologies.
Increase competitiveness by expanding your portfolio of managed products.
Product servitization, enhanced by numerous features.
