ByteSnap Design announces strategic partnership with Particle

This collaboration marks a significant step forward in the development of integrated IoT solutions that are both efficient and scalable and will be demonstrated at the Engineering Design Show (EDS) on stand H52.

The partnership will combine ByteSnap Design’s extensive expertise in embedded systems development and Particle’s robust IoT infrastructure to deliver enhanced connectivity solutions to industries ranging from automotive to healthcare and smart cities. Together, ByteSnap Design and Particle aim to simplify the IoT development process with embeddable modules and off-the-shelf gateways, all integrated into the Particle IoT Platform-as-a-Service. This allows for the faster deployment of smart, connected products that drive tangible outcomes in efficiency, sustainability, and user experience.

ByteSnap Design to demo mmWave tech for non-invasive people tracking with Particle integration

At this year’s EDS event, from 9-10 October 2024, ByteSnap will showcase an exciting demo that combines millimetre wave (mmWave) technology with Particle's IoT platform for advanced remote sensor management. The centrepiece will be a "spinning head" mechanism, expertly tuned to track movement across a wide field of view in real-time, highlighting its ability to monitor people and occupancy without missing a beat.

With Particle's Photon 2 Wi-Fi development board and the IoT Platform-as-a-Service, the ByteSnap team quickly brought this demo to life, seamlessly streaming sensor data to the cloud for instant analytics, remote management, and diagnostics. Using mmWave technology, the system discreetly tracks individuals without cameras, ensuring privacy by never storing personal data—a smart, non-invasive solution designed for the future.

The partnership is set to kick off with a series of joint development projects, including an IoT module that provides enterprise-grade security and easy integration across various platforms and devices.

ByteSnap has developed IoT solutions for diverse sectors, including software for electric vehicle charging for major brands, smart home systems, environmental monitoring tools, healthcare monitoring devices, and agricultural technologies, though specific large brand names they've worked with on these projects are not publicly disclosed.

"By combining our deep knowledge of embedded systems with Particle’s cutting-edge IoT technology, we are poised to offer our clients unparalleled integrated solutions," said Graeme Wintle, Director at ByteSnap Design. "This partnership underscores our commitment to remaining at the forefront of the development of connected devices that meet the evolving needs of our customers."

Learn more about the partnership and its benefits at the upcoming EDS, scheduled for 9 - 10 October 2024 at the NEC. At the event, ByteSnap will also showcase a diverse collection of recent projects across various industries, including security, medical, industrial, oil and gas, and more.

Director Dunstan Power of ByteSnap Design also has the opening keynote in the New Electronics Theatre on “Spotting R & D Winners and Losers – How Best to Invest Your R & D Budget”  at 10:15 - 11 am on 10 October 2024.
