Tech We Think Is Cool

This is just a small list of things we like playing with.

Flutter On Embedded Devices

This is a flutter app Recording data from a Control Logix PLC running on a Raspberry Pi. This prototype is running Ubuntu Core.

MQTT

We really like MQTT for messaging. It is great for sending location information, sensor information, or most other information. Most all our real-time solutions depend on MQTT, although there is some SignalR out there too.

Flutter (Web)

Flutter is an awesome cross platform UI. The web part takes barely-modified code and makes it work easily as a website. This is used in the Industrial Logger, TrailMate, LTUE apps.

C# and ASP.net Core

We use C# and ASP.net Core for the backends in our projects. This could talk to a SQL Server or Postgres database. It is fast are reliable and can easily be compiled for arm devices like the Raspberry Pi and other single board computers. This is used in the Industrial Logger, TrailMate, LTUE apps.
