Before our involvement, HVAC management systems often lacked user-friendly interfaces and reliable remote control capabilities. The core challenges included:
- Limited interoperability between different air conditioning brands and models.
- Inconsistent or delayed real-time communication between mobile devices and IoT hardware.
- Lack of scalability and security in backend infrastructure.
- Non-optimized user experience across iOS and Android platforms.
Our team developed an integrated Smart HVAC platform with the following key components:
- Backend System: Built with Java 11, using sockets for real-time communication and AWS cloud infrastructure for scalability and availability.
- IoT Integration: Enabled communication between mobile apps and HVAC devices using custom socket protocols and secure MQTT-like patterns.
- Mobile Applications:
- Android App: Developed using Java and Kotlin, offering real-time HVAC control, scheduling, and device monitoring.
- iOS App: Developed in Swift, delivering a native experience tailored to Apple users.
- Frontend Web Portal: Provided user-friendly dashboard for monitoring and controlling devices, managing schedules, and user account settings
Tech Stack
- Backend: Java 11, Custom Socket Programming, REST APIs, MQTT (or similar lightweight protocol), AWS EC2, RDS, S3
- IoT: Secure device communication over custom protocols, real-time data streams
- Mobile:
- Android – Java & Kotlin
- iOS – Swift
- Frontend: HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript (framework as applicable)
- Cloud & DevOps: Amazon Web Services (EC2, RDS, S3), CI/CD pipelines, monitoring tools
The final solution delivered measurable improvements across various aspects:
- Real-time Control: Users can instantly turn devices on/off, change modes, or adjust temperature settings.
- Energy Efficiency: Intelligent scheduling and usage tracking helped users reduce energy consumption.
- Cross-Platform Consistency: Unified user experience across iOS, Android, and web platforms.
- Scalable Infrastructure: Cloud-based backend enabled smooth handling of thousands of concurrent users and devices.
