Typeqast built a solution that can control devices, such as fans, coolers, and heaters, in a storage facility. The software connects to temperature and humidity sensors, which then detect and automatically regulate the conditions in the storage warehouse. Farmers can use a touch screen interface, and change the settings themselves or have the system run automatically.

The solution was created in three phases: Discovery, Prototype, and MVP phase. In the discovery phase, the architects and product leads researched the devices they needed to integrate. They conducted interviews with the founder and team, and pictured all the possibilities. After that, the prototype was built together with the development team. In September this year, the first system was successfully installed at a customer’s warehouse.

The solution is built using the .NET Core Framework, which includes a front-end created using the Angular frontend framework. To build the solution we had a project lead with a scrum team of backend, frontend, QA, and DevOps engineers. In this way we’ve been able to create a very special solution, integrated with a market-leader for industrial hardware, Beckhoff.
