New Paris, Ind. — Jan. 24, 2015 — KMC Controls, a leader in building automation systems, has announced a collaboration with two unnamed industry giants to market an advanced set of cloud-based facility monitoring, analytic, and control solutions for the small-building segment.
The system pairs advanced processors, which feature embedded security and a software stack optimized for edge device management, with an IoT Gateway. A cloud-based analytics and visualization engine developed by RiptideIO augments the physical components to form the core of the new platform. The result is a revolutionary IoT edge appliance and mobile service developed specifically for building automation application.
"Our work with the two industry leaders along with RiptideIO has given us the opportunity to break new ground in technological terms and to open up an entirely new market segment (small buildings)," said Dave Bohlmann, KMC's vice president of technology. "Until now, a scalable, secure, and cost-effective solution for small buildings developed on an open platform hasn't been a reality. Technological advancements now allow us to completely change the game and disrupt the market."
