Electronics & mechanical design.
Shape the physical foundation: sensing, control, interfaces and the way a product fits its environment.
Engineering & platform
From the physical.
To the possible.
Electronics, embedded systems, mechanical design, cloud software and applications. Developed with the complete experience in view.
One system
Four layers.
One team.
When the people designing the board, the firmware, the cloud and the app sit together, a product behaves as one thing. That is also what makes it ready for AI.
- 1App
Control, schedules and insight.
- 2Cloud
Device services, data and AI.
- 3Firmware
Embedded systems and over-the-air updates.
- 4Hardware
Electronics and mechanical design.
Connected by design
Every layer has a part to play.
Embedded systems.
Define device behaviour and connect physical functions to software interfaces.
Cloud & applications.
Bring people, device information and controls together through connected software experiences.
AI & agentic workflows.
Use relevant context and permitted actions to explore assistance across products, spaces and operations.
The work between the layers
A command is a request.
A result needs evidence.
Identity
Which person, device or service is involved?
Permission
What is it allowed to read or change?
Feedback
What actually happened after the request?
These questions guide the architecture we define for each project, including its connectivity, data handling and failure behaviour.
Work with Photon Smart
Start at the right layer.
Bring a new product, an existing system to connect, or a workflow to improve. We work from the constraints outward—defining the integration, the user experience and a practical way to validate the result.

BDI / Business Device Informatics
Your whole fleet, in one console.
Follow device health and connectivity, roll out firmware in stages, investigate crashes and errors, and see how products are used, from one device to the whole fleet.
- Fleet health and connectivity
- Staged firmware releases
- Diagnostics and crash analysis
- Usage and growth analytics
Security and privacy
Secure from the device to the cloud.
- Device securityUnique credentials and encrypted connections for every device.
- Data protectionData encrypted in transit, with access limited by role.
- Reliable updatesFirmware that stays current, and recovers if an update fails.
