About The Customer
IBOMADE is a German-tech company that enables modern technology to regulate, redirect and analyze traffic. Their multi-purpose, solar-powered LED panels can display traffic jam warnings, variable speed limits, dynamic detours, and capture traffic data and real-time surveillance footage. Combined with a cloud platform where customers can program and manage their stations, IBOMADE offers federal states an all-in-one solution for intelligent traffic management. In less than a year, IBOMADE has developed its IT infrastructure and products embedded with the EMnify cloud communication platform. It now delivers a complete solution to the highway authorities of Hessen, Bavaria and North Rhine-Westphalia.
The Challenge
With the increasing traffic on German highways and a nationwide goal of reducing fatal traffic accidents to a minimum, federal states require modern technology to regulate, redirect and analyze traffic. Traffic jam warning systems play a vital role, as they can inform drivers about congestions at an early stage and thus prevent rear-end collisions. Speed limits at construction sites may cause congestions, however, they are crucial to the safety of construction workers on site. To counter road congestions during the holiday season, federal states needed real-time data on traffic participation. In Germany, highway projects are assigned through tendering. Network availability measurements are a required procedure for connected traffic solutions.
The Solution
IBOMADE developed its IT infrastructure and products embedded with the EMnify cloud communication platform. The company's multi-purpose, solar-powered LED panels can display traffic jam warnings, variable speed limits, dynamic detours, and capture traffic data and real-time surveillance footage. The panels are combined with a cloud platform where customers can program and manage their stations, offering federal states an all-in-one solution for intelligent traffic management. EMnify’s multi-network IoT SIM that comes with a 99.99% connectivity uptime was a perfect match for IBOMADE. The portal also enables IBOMADE to actively steer the network usage of their stations.

Case Study
Airport SCADA Systems Improve Service Levels
Modern airports are one of the busiest environments on Earth and rely on process automation equipment to ensure service operators achieve their KPIs. Increasingly airport SCADA systems are being used to control all aspects of the operation and associated facilities. This is because unplanned system downtime can cost dearly, both in terms of reduced revenues and the associated loss of customer satisfaction due to inevitable travel inconvenience and disruption.

Digitize Railway with Deutsche Bahn
To reduce maintenance costs and delay-causing failures for Deutsche Bahn. They need manual measurements by a position measurement system based on custom-made MEMS sensor clusters, which allow autonomous and continuous monitoring with wireless data transmission and long battery. They were looking for data pre-processing solution in the sensor and machine learning algorithms in the cloud so as to detect critical wear.

Case Study
Vehicle Fleet Analytics
Organizations frequently implement a maintenance strategy for their fleets of vehicles using a combination of time and usage based maintenance schedules. While effective as a whole, time and usage based schedules do not take into account driving patterns, environmental factors, and sensors currently deployed within the vehicle measuring crank voltage, ignition voltage, and acceleration, all of which have a significant influence on the overall health of the vehicle.In a typical fleet, a large percentage of road calls are related to electrical failure, with battery failure being a common cause. Battery failures result in unmet service agreement levels and costly re-adjustment of scheduled to provide replacement vehicles. To reduce the impact of unplanned maintenance, the transportation logistics company was interested in a trial of C3 Vehicle Fleet Analytics.

3M Gains Real-Time Insight with Cloud Solution
The company has a long track record of innovative technology solutions. For example, 3M helps its customers optimize parking operations by automating fee collection and other processes. To improve support for this rapidly expanding segment, 3M needed to automate its own data collection and reporting. The company had recently purchased the assets of parking, tolling, and automatic license plate reader businesses, and required better insight into these acquisitions. Chad Reed, Global Business Manager for 3M Parking Systems, says, “With thousands of installations across the world, we couldn’t keep track of our software and hardware deployments, which made it difficult to understand our market penetration.” 3M wanted a tracking application that sales staff could use to get real-time information about the type and location of 3M products in parking lots and garages. So that it could be used on-site with potential customers, the solution would have to provide access to data anytime, anywhere, and from an array of mobile devices. Jason Fox, Mobile Application Architect at 3M, upped the ante by volunteering to deliver the new app in one weekend. For Fox and his team, these requirements meant turning to the cloud instead of an on-premises datacenter. “My first thought was to go directly to the cloud because we needed to provide access not only to our salespeople, but to resellers who didn’t have access to our internal network,” says Fox. “The cloud just seemed like a logical choice.”
