By using Yaftie as a development platform, organisations can evaluate concepts faster, reduce prototyping costs, and gain valuable performance insights before investing in custom hardware development.
Ultra-Low-Power IoT & Telematics Design Services
From concept through to production, we help organisations create devices that combine advanced connectivity, precise positioning, long battery life, and intelligent edge processing.
Our expertise spans GPS/GNSS positioning, LTE communications, sensor fusion, power optimisation, wireless technologies, embedded software, аnd the systems required to support them in the real world enabling us to deliver reliable and energy-efficient solutions for demanding real-world applications.
Meet Yaftie – Our Ultra-Low-Power Development Platform
As part of our commitment to advancing ultra-low-power device design, we developed Yaftie, an ultra-low-power sensor fusion platform that enables new ideas to be rapidly implemented, tested, and validated in a realistic device environment.
Yaftie is designed specifically as a development platform and a spring board that enables us to help our clients bring their ideas to fruition. It provides advanced positioning capability, low power terrestrial and non terrestrial communications, a sensor fusion hub for a vast array of differing sensors and efficient power management in a small form factor.
