IoT engineering for smart medical devices 
Prevas makes smart medical devices with built-in sensors for healthcare companies for use in medical clinics as well as at home.  The devices remotely monitor and gather patient data for location tracking, temperature and humidity.  Using our IoT connectivity, Prevas can transfer this data to the cloud of the designated healthcare service provider. This makes for an efficient and easy way for healthcare providers to access the data.  For example, for use in clinical research and diagnosis.

Smart factory floors
Whether it’s developing a mining drill or a complex robotic solution, the safety and efficiency of factory floor operations should not conflict.  Prevas also designs smart manufacturing solutions that support safer environments while optimizing operational efficiency.

Our IoT technology can collect and relay performance data from connected systems designed by Prevas in near real-time.  This data provides monitoring insights as well as predictive maintenance. They can also provide a way to plan for efficient production and maximum operational uptime.

Innovating for success
Customers and companies that work with us, like Prevas, also have the opportunity to work with the AT&T Foundry.  This is in addition to the Prevas R&D and engineering facilities in Scandinavia.  The AT&T Foundry is a network of innovation centers.  At the Foundry, we collaborate with startups, technology providers and enterprises to move ideas to market fast.  We do this by discussing our customers’ business challenges; then we test, iterate and develop prototypes for innovative technologies, like IoT-enabled smart devices.

“Our collaboration with Prevas is an example of how we are fueling business transformation with edge-to-edge capabilities. For industrial and hi-tech global businesses looking to get their connected products to market quickly with the help of IoT technology and services, we’re the go-to team.
