App development for connected devices

Next-generation technological developments are poised to make the Internet more than just a virtual space. The rise of QR codes heralded the beginning of the Internet of Things (IoT), which is poised to explode in the years ahead.

The Internet of Things is based on technologies like tagging, Bluetooth connectivity and near-field communications, which allow for online representations of objects existing in the “real world.” This creates exciting new interactive possibilities, with industry insiders predicting up to 30 billion wireless device connections to the Internet of Things within the next four years.

At Dogtown Media, we see the Internet of Things as a major game-changer in how businesses operate and bring value to customers. Our IoT app developers link smart devices using cutting-edge technologies, putting a wide range of powerful tools and services at your fingertips. Benefits of IoT apps include:

  • Real-time data access: IoT mobile apps tap into real-time data from connected devices, making it easier to monitor equipment remotely, track inventory, receive live updates, access remote diagnostics and analyze user behavior through real-time analytics.
  • Enhanced customer experiences: Wearable devices and smart sensors help us craft personalized experiences that meet individual needs. For example, retailers can deliver instant promotions as customers walk through their stores, making the shopping experience more intuitive and engaging.
  • Improved operational efficiency: Linking systems within the IoT ecosystem through custom IoT solutions helps you streamline business processes, automate repetitive tasks, boost overall productivity, reduce operational costs, and enhance collaboration.

Internet of Things to Create $6 Trillion Global Impact

The Internet of Things, already disrupting major industries like home security, will become even more of a major economic engine in the near future. According to experts at the McKinsey Global Institute, the Internet of Things will have an economic impact of over $6 trillion globally within the next nine years.

IoT and connected devices will also have a major impact on modes of production, with 80 to 100 percent of manufacturing processes utilizing some form of IoT applications. This, in turn, will result in productivity gains to the tune of $2 trillion worldwide.

Endless Mobile Application Use Cases

The Internet of Things and its connected devices won’t just transform industry — they will transform the way people interact with their environments. Emergency response and continuous care services will become more efficient, cost-effective, accessible, and reliable. Urban planning and waste management will benefit from powerful new capabilities, heralding the arrival of the long-awaited “smart city.” Your home will become more connected and use less energy. You’ll be able to engage socially in never-before-seen ways.

There will also be a tremendous need for technological tools to help shape and guide our interactions with the Internet of Things. The coming years promise to be exciting, productive, and potentially very profitable for forward-thinking startups and entrepreneurs.

Our IoT and Bluetooth app technology stack
Raspberry Pi Device Controls Development

The Raspberry Pi is a credit-card sized computer that can plug into TV, keyboard, or other computerized device. It is a robust system which can be used in electronics projects, and for many of the things that your desktop PC does, like spreadsheets, word-processing as well as playing high-definition video.

App Development for Bluetooth Connected Devices

Bluetooth® Smart and Bluetooth Smart Ready products represent a quantum leap for Bluetooth technology, allowing billions of previously disconnected devices to join the connected world.

Most iOS and Android devices now widely support Bluetooth device connectivity, enabling app developers to create innovative mobile products with the native support of key Bluetooth profiles and functionality. This means that real-world devices can communicate seamlessly with mobile apps as well as be controlled remotely from up to 100 feet away.

Arduino App Development + Hardware Hacking

Arduino is an open-source electronics prototyping platform based on flexible, easy-to-use hardware and software. It’s intended for artists, designers, hobbyists and anyone interested in creating interactive objects or environments.

The applications possibilities created by Arduino are endless. The platform can sense the environment by receiving input from a variety of sensors and can affect its surroundings by controlling lights, motors, and other actuators. Arduino projects can be stand-alone or they can communicate with software running on a computer or via a mobile application.
