Objectives
R3 IoT offers accessible, dependable connectivity anywhere, giving businesses the information that they need to make informed decisions.
This project will develop the next generation R3 IoT system, incorporating cutting edge technologies, designing for mass-manufacture, and improving the performance of all elements to ensure the R3 end-to-end Industrial IoT service will provide utmost value to our customers across multiple markets.
Challenges
The key challenge in this project will be bringing together cutting edge technologies from different fields: satellite communications, IoT infrastructure, industrial sensing, public cloud, and combining them together into the R3 IoT service to best meet the needs of our customers and users.
System Architecture
At a top level, the R3 solutions is composed of two main elements: the first is R3Cell, the smart gateway that is deployed in the field and which bridges communications between IIoT end-devices such (as sensors) and the multiple backhaul satellite communications back to the cloud. The second is the R3Cloud, a web-based Mission Control Software that receives sensor and other data from all the gateways out in the field and provides the functionality required to manage and control large numbers of deployed devices anywhere in the world.
