Software and Hardware Integration
If you need to process data from your specialist hardware – for example readings from a thermometer or measuring device, streaming video from a camera, or anything else – we’ll create software to enable this.
From developing systems to monitor food waste in restaurants to creating apps that interface with lasers via USB for pharmaceutical tablet production, we’ve partnered with various industries. Our focus is on creating hardware-integrated solutions that drive innovation, cost efficiency, and process automation.
What is Software and Hardware Integration?
In its basic form, it requires four components:
1) Hardware – The physical object from which data is extracted, such as a thermometer, camera, laser, scale, measuring device, or robot, plays a crucial role in the data collection process.
2) A Sensor – A device that converts analog signals from hardware into digital data for processing by computers.
3) A Connector – (technical term “communication bus”) Enables smooth information transfer between hardware and a computer, using connectors like USB cables, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Ethernet for seamless communication. This integration enhances efficiency and user experience.
4) Software –A program that guides hardware in executing tasks, like determining which measurements to capture or actions to perform.

How we can help you
Whether you require software that interacts with a single hardware device or multiple devices, we have the capability to develop it for you. Our expertise includes crafting applications for mobile, tablet, web, or desktop platforms, all seamlessly connected to either a cloud-based or local database.
But that’s only half the story; to be useful, your system needs a front-end that’s completely user-friendly. That’s why we’ll include elements such as:
- We can create a tailored user interface (UI) dashboard, either pre-set or user-customizable, to ensure smooth data visualization. This guarantees that you and other users can quickly and effortlessly interpret the data gathered from your hardware.
- The ability to safely store large datasets or numerous tests for future access, enabling data manipulation at a later time.
- Quick and easy report generation that can be emailed or printed: create unlimited reports with various filters.
- Automated email alerts that activate when readings exceed specific parameters.

Software and Hardware Integration Process
As a Microsoft Gold Partner, we use C# and ASP.Net MVC5 with HTML5 for web apps. For desktop/tablet apps, we use WPF, and integrate systems with WCF Web Services, ensuring seamless functionality across platforms.
We utilize Microsoft SQL Server for databases, utilizing its core Engine, Integration, Analysis, and Reporting services. Additionally, we have expertise in MySQL (open-source) and Oracle, tailored to your needs. Our team ensures secure, scalable, and high-performance database solutions.
We also offer the following optional services for your integrated system:
- Ongoing maintenance and support – This includes a service level agreement (SLA) and access to in-house developers via our helpdesk. Alternatively, for those not needing continuous support, we offer a one-year break-fix warranty.
- Hosting:We’ve invested in a secure, scalable, and fast infrastructure with Rackspace, offering a solution to bypass the complexities of specialized server hardware. This ensures high-performance web applications with reliability.
