Fusionary, a web and mobile app development company is Grand Rapids, has partnered with Atmosic Technologies, a developer of ultra-low-power wireless platforms for the Internet of Things (IoT), to create a new mobile app called Viviant for Atmosic’s customers.
The Viviant app is designed to streamline the developer experience so companies can speed up time to market when they are developing and evaluating Bluetooth IoT projects.
Viviant should allow developers to do everything from running simple evaluation tests to complex applications using Atmosic’s wireless SoCs.
The app allows developers to quickly test and debug their low-power wireless Bluetooth LE embedded application code and determine interoperability with Android and iOS mobile devices.
Developers can run out-of-the-box demos such as Blinky, Motion, Gauges, and a Device Scanner to help familiarize themselves with the Atmosic low-power radio development ecosystem. The app includes troubleshooting features to help fix bugs and test data throughput during the development of IoT products.
With a built-in logging feature, it should also be easy for developers to access support ticketing. Additionally, Atmosic’s customers can leverage Fusionary’s expertise in web and mobile apps to develop their own custom apps.
“Fusionary’s expertise has been invaluable in developing our mobile app,” says Sudhakar Gundubogula, senior director for software products at Atmosic Technologies. “Viviant will significantly improve the developer experience so our customers can easily evaluate our ultra-low-power wireless platforms and troubleshoot and fix bugs in no time. In addition, there is a mobile SDK available for customers to customize and integrate into their own mobile applications.”
Atmosic’s lowest power radio technology provides its customers with systems that consume one-quarter of the power of competitor solutions. Many of Atmosic’s system-on-chips (SoCs) also can intelligently harvest energy from ambient sources, including both indoor and outdoor photovoltaic (PV) sources, and directly from radio waves.
Combining Atmosic’s extremely low power Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) radio and controlled energy harvesting technology significantly extends battery life so batteries can last the lifetime of a device. Atmosic’s technology can even replace the need for batteries entirely, which can help save billions of batteries from ending up in landfills in the coming years.
Atmosic’s portfolio is good for IoT applications such as electronic shelf labels, remote controls, beacons, and keyboards.
