挑战

Apollo Fusion 是一家太空硬件初创公司，需要一种快速、轻松地连接其研发团队、管理层和投资者的方法，以确保产品开发的准确和最新信息。

关于客户

Apollo Fusion 是一家湾区初创公司，致力于开发卫星推进系统，重点开发坚固耐用且耐辐射的电源处理单元 (PPU)。他们需要一个解决方案来简化运营并改善沟通。

解决方案

Altium Designer 在 Altium 365 的支持下，允许 Apollo Fusion 在产品开发的每个阶段进行连接，并为所有利益相关者提供准确的信息。

运营影响

The implementation of Altium Designer and Altium 365 has significantly improved Apollo Fusion's operations. The solution has not only brought everyone at Apollo Fusion together but also coalesced their specialized part libraries and allowed for easy exporting of data into thermal analysis software. This has been particularly beneficial for the team as they deal with an ever-expanding parts and component library. The Altium 365 cloud platform has made part additions almost effortless, greatly enhancing the efficiency of their operations. Furthermore, the solution has enabled Apollo Fusion’s PPU boards and Hall thrusters to go from the Earth into orbit, enhancing satellite mobility, functionality, and even end-of-life orbit change. This has had a positive impact on everyone, from Apollo Fusion and their customers to everyone who relies on their satellites to power everyday life.

Hydro One Leads the Way In Smart Meter Development

In 2010, Ontario’s energy board mandated that time-of-use (TOU) pricing for consumers be available for all consumers on a regulated price plan. To meet this requirement, Hydro One needed to quickly deploy a smart meter and intelligent communications network solution to meet the provincial government’s requirement at a low cost. The network needed to cover Hydro One’s expansive service territory, which has a land mass twice the size of Texas, and its customers live in a mix of urban, rural, and remote areas, some places only accessible by air, rail, boat or snowmobile. Most importantly, the network needed to enable future enterprise-wide business efficiencies, modernization of distribution infrastructure and enhanced customer service. To meet these needs, Hydro One conceptualized an end-to-end solution leveraging open standards and Internet Protocols (IP) at all communication levels. The utility drew upon industry leaders like Trilliant to realize this vision.

Selling more with Whirlpool

Whirlpool wanted to add connectivity to appliances and transform the company's relationship with customers. Traditionally, Whirlpool interaction with customers was limited to purchases made once every ten years. Connected washer and dryers provide exciting new features like remote management of start times and inter-machine communication.

SAS® Analytics for IoT: Smart Grid

Companies face falling revenues, rising infrastructure costs, and increasing risk of outages caused by inconsistent energy production from renewable sources. Less money is coming in as more people and organizations take steps to curb their energy use. Utilities are paying more to maintain and build infrastructure due to increasing complexity, resulting from the rising number of intermittent and variable renewable energy sources connected in the distribution grid.

Enel Secures Italian Power Generation Network

Electric energy operators around the world are working to increase the reliability and cyber resiliency of their systems. This includes Enel, a global power company that manages and monitors the Italian power grid. This grid:• Serves 31 million customers• Has a net installed energy capacity exceeding 31 gigawatts• Includes more than 500 power generation plants,including hydroelectric, thermoelectric, and wind• Is managed and monitored by Enel 24/7/365• Is operated by Terna, the Italian Transmission System Operator (TSO)Enel is responsible for the availability of the grid’s underlying ICS and industrial network. It also manages Regional Control Centers and Interconnection Centers which connect with the TSO. The TSO manages the flow of energy to the grid plus controls and remotely regulates the power generation of power plants, increasing and decreasing power production as required. The complex system of interaction and cooperation between Enel and the TSO has strong security implications as well as operational and business challenges.

IoT based Energy Quality Availability Monitoring Solution

There were several challenges faced:Since this data would be in the public domain, accuracy and authenticity of this data were of paramount importance. It should be able to withstand scrutiny.It is challenging to build an appliance that can withstand a wide range of voltage fluctuations from as low at 90v to as high as 320v. Since the device would be installed in remote locations, its resilience was of paramount importance.The device would have to deal with poor network coverage and have the ability to store and re-transmit data if networks were not available, which is often the case in rural India. The device could store up to 30 days of data.The platform that deals with the data should be readily available and highly reliable and never lose a packet of data.
