Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) projects, more often than not, are similar to a courier service facilitating mission-critical exchanges of data. This anecdotal reference best illustrates SkyLab’s unique value proposition in the IIoT space, highlighting the modus operandi of the company in resolving business impediments. SkyLab’s inception dates back to a collaboration with Singapore’s leading Solar Developer on a green energy initiative.
At that time, the Housing and Development Board of Singapore, responsible for housing some 85% of Singaporeans and Permanent Residents, open up their roofs for solar panels deployment and the harvesting of clean energy. However, installing solar panels was just the beginning of a long and strategic initiative. The Solar Developer was required to quantify the production of energy at each apartment block, obtain relevant data from power meters, and monitor the performance of DC to AC inverters consistently. “When we initially took up this project, we had to develop a comprehensive and robust system that not only aggregates data from one device in one place but rather a network of devices dispersed across numerous locations across Singapore,” explains Stephen Ho, Group COO at SkyLab. In order to optimize this network of devices, SkyLab deployed a radio network utilizing microwaves to serve as the backbone of IIoT communication in a secured and scalable manner.
