Trophée de l’Embarqué, Industrial and Services IoT category
Sycon received the Trophée de l’Embarqué in the Industrial and Services IoT category, at the Assises de l’Embarqué held with Embedded France.
The Assises de l'Embarqué gather French embedded-systems designers every year. Its trophy judges a product on what it does, before a jury able to read an architecture.
What was assessed
The Sybox is a gateway placed near the machines. It is plugged in and raises its own LTE-M cellular link. It asks for no open port, no address on the customer's network and no work from their IT department. Syway sensors are fixed to the machine and talk to it over low-energy Bluetooth.
Why the architecture is the point
Most industrial instrumentation projects stall at the same place: the moment someone has to ask the site's IT manager for permission to connect an unfamiliar device to the network. This architecture moves that conversation: there is nothing to ask for.
The trophy is organised by the Assises de l'Embarqué together with Embedded France.
