Manage a Modbus device from the Cloud
With the arrival of Device Twins, it has become easier to manage Modbus devices from the Cloud. In this blog we explain how this works.
Everything you always wanted to know about IoT
Of course, you’ve heard of IoT, but now you really want to know what it is and how you can use it in your organization. And do you want to know how IoT data is secured and what you can do with it? In this blog, Henk Schwietert answers the frequently asked questions about IoT.
The benefits of a data-driven organization
Technological advancements make IoT solutions easier to implement. After all, the technology is becoming cheaper, more advanced and widely applicable. These technological improvements open the door for more and more sectors to take advantage of IoT.
New muscle analyzer system for sarcopenia
Evalan started the MAS project together with the Uppsala University in Sweden and the MUMC in Maastricht. During this project a muscle analyzer system will be developed that measures the density of muscles by means of microwave technology.
Evalan Joins Microchip Technology’s Design Partner Ecosystem
BACE, Evalan’s new IoT connectivity solution uses Microchip’s CryptoAuthentication™ secure element, the ATECC608B TrustFLEX, to secure its IoT solution.
Evalan enters into a partnership with KPN
Evalan has concluded an agreement with KPN for IoT Connectivity. As part of this agreement, KPN is adding Evalan’s IoT solutions to its “KPN Things Device catalog”. With the addition of Evalan’s IoT Modules, which communicate via LTE-M, KPN is expanding the device catalog to applications that cannot be operated with LoRa, such as IoT applications for mobile assets. With this partnership, Evalan connects to a valuable platform with which products can be offered to the IoT market nationally and internationally.
Evalan introduces “BACE” – the IoT Connector for Digital Transformation
Evalan has developed one of these components, called “BACE”, a building block that connects your assets to the Cloud. BACE enables organizations to easily implement IoT solutions and respond quickly to changing needs. Implementing IoT is now possible at lower costs, without limiting performance, security, flexibility or energy requirements.
Evalan develops respiratory rate sensor for European project NextPerception
A new European project, NextPerception, is developing intelligent sensing technology for the next generation of solutions for the healthcare and automotive industry. On the one hand, the focus of the project is on patient-centered care, in which improved monitoring systems aim at early detection and prevention of deterioration in health. On the other hand, sensor solutions are being developed for the automotive industry to improve pedestrian safety and automated driving. During this project, Evalan focuses on the first use case, healthcare, and is developing a respiratory rate sensor specifically for cardiac care.
Evalan delivers 250 new Check-In Terminals to Handicart
To properly manage the Handicarts, Evalan has developed a payment and fleet management system that enables the Handicart Foundation to manage the fleet remotely and to arrange the rental of the carts more easily. This fleet management system consists of a Portal and RFID terminals with which users can make reservations and check in. The system is used satisfactorily and has recently been expanded with new functions. The technology of the current terminals dates from 2014. To enable new developments, Handicart asked Evalan to supply 250 new terminals.
Evalan delivers 250 new Check-In Terminals to Handicart
To properly manage the golf carts, Evalan has developed a fleet management system that enables Handicart to manage the fleet remotely and to arrange the rental of the carts more easily. This fleet management system consists of a Portal and RFID terminals with which users can make reservations and check in. The system is used satisfactorily and has recently been extended with new functions. Handicart has therefore asked Evalan to supply 250 new terminals.
Energy technology development within EU project successfully completed
Evalan participated in the European project Energy for Smart Objects (EnSO). The project, which was recently successfully completed, focused on an indispensable part of an IoT device; energy. The aim of the project was to develop Autonomous Micro Energy Sources (AMES) for IoT devices to extend battery life with as little energy as possible. As a result of this project, Evalan created a Smart Care solution consisting of the combination of a wireless sensor network and a wearable sensor that monitors various physical parameters. The focus was on reducing the energy consumption of both the wearable sensor and the bGrid node, the sensor that forms the basis of the eponymous wireless smart building sensor network.
New IoT development project for monitoring intake tube feeding
The European innovation program Eureka has started a new project, of which Evalan is part. For 3 years, 18 organizations from different countries will work working together intensively on this FoodFriend project to develop technologies that can better measure the influence of food on the human body. This concerns both the intake of food and its absorption by the body.
Engineer Jasper about Evalan: “A horizontal structure, good atmosphere and fascinating projects.”
Evalan’s team mainly consists of developers with specializations in electrical engineering, software engineering, mechanical engineering and industrial design. Jasper is one of our software engineers. Ten years ago he started at Evalan as an intern and now he is software developer for various projects. He knows better than anyone how the company has changed over the past ten years. We asked him about his challenges, highlights and milestones.
IoT technology can help to improve healthcare
Today’s world is built on connection. Our homes, phones and more and more of our devices are communicating with each other. The adoption of IoT is growing and impacting several sectors, including healthcare. Healthcare professionals are increasingly beginning to realize how smart technology can revolutionize healthcare in many different ways. Two key tools will play a role in this change: embedded monitoring systems and smart building connectivity.
IoT applications can make a difference in healthcare
The Dutch healthcare sector suffers from a large staff shortage and the workload is high. Embedded monitoring systems and a smart healthcare infrastructure can help to provide a better and safer environment for healthcare staff and patients.
