Edgy Home: Compact RF-to-Cloud Hardware
Consumer IoT Gateway designed in Altium serving as central aesthetic hub for home RF sensor networks.
A consumer-oriented IoT Gateway, designed in Altium to serve as the central, aesthetic hub for home RF sensor networks.
Tech Stack:
PCB Design, Altium Designer, Hardware Engineering, RF Design, I2C, SPI, Ethernet
The residential consumer requires technology that is as powerful as it is invisible. The commercial engineering challenge was to design a hub with a tiny physical footprint that still guarantees uninterrupted RF coverage through the walls of a standard residence.
Comprehensive schematic and multi-layer PCB design using Altium Designer. The hardware integrates an RF receiver stage with mathematically calculated antenna placement to minimize interference. It includes dedicated antenna headers and is thermally balanced to operate 24/7 in a compact enclosure without overheating.
Value Delivered:
Commercial Reliability:
Gives security and home automation providers a dedicated hardware "anchor" that is exponentially more stable than relying on the user's standard Wi-Fi network.
Corporate Aesthetics:
A mini, professional form factor that generates immediate trust in the end user.
Depending on the customer's Wi-Fi modem is the biggest point of failure in home automation. Secure your monitoring services by installing compact proprietary gateways that guarantee a clean, uninterrupted network connection.
