Application:

The customer, a transportation company based in Italy (Tramvie Venete

Bergamasche (TEB), Bergamo), wanted to accomplish a fleet

management optimization by tuning the time table with particular attention

to school students fluxes. The solution consists of providing several trams

with Eurotech’s Passenger Counters and one DynaCOR per vehicle. This

combination enables passenger counting with associated GPS positioning,

doors opening/closing events and collection of other information with

regards to the route. Information is available for the customer through a

web application that leverages Eurotech’s Everyware Cloud platform.

the collection, transmission and transformation of data to

automate actions and meet regulatory requirements.

TRANSPORTATION

Additional value to rail customers:

Increased safety, speed controls, predictive maintenance,

efficiency improvements, reduced costs.

GOAL:

To prevent train-to-train collisions, over-speed derailments, improper movements, work zone incursions

“This project is highly complex. It introduces a reliability concept of 5 9s into the rail industry’s wireless communication infrastructure,”

— Robert Turnbull, CEO, Meteorcomm.

IoT Architecture by Red Hat & Eurotech Conclusions, Summary

• The concept of a Software-defined Gateway or Multi-Service Gateway is

very powerful and an essential element in IoT solutions. The ability to

program smart edge devices (including gateways) in a secure execution

environment in Java/OSGi on abstracted hardware offers substantial

benefits to companies that need their value proposition extended to the IoT

edge.

• Different from “traditional” M2M or telemetry like approaches the Software-

Defined Gateway does require dynamically changing and updating of

device software including the application life cycle management. Remote

device and embedded application management is a significant part of the

TCO of an IoT solution. The use of M2M/IoT Integration Platform

capabilities is improving overall cost and time-to-market for IoT solutions

significantly.

• There is a magnificent and powerful IT world that the OT world with Software-

Defined Edge nodes need to be seamlessly and securely integrated with.
