Integra Sources Reviews
John Tolly
Great to Work with, Very professional and capable
Integra has been great to work with. Our firm had an existing Flex PCB design which needed to be modified to very specific dimensions and tolerances, and was no problem for the team at Integra. We have since contracted with them for several more designs and research, and will continue to do so in the future.

Hardworking and Honest Development Firm
We worked with Integra Sources on a single project that didn't work out early on in development through no fault of their own. They were very detail oriented and transparent throughout the whole process. Our engineers were very happy with all of their responses and how well written the code was. We'd be more than happy to work with them in the future!

Robotic Lawn Mower
About Mowing the lawn is tedious work. And it's a year-round project. But it doesn't seem so tedious once there is a robotic lawn mower ready to do the job for you. Request A company in the consumer robotics industry was working on a robotic mower. They needed a professional company that could provide an independent design review for their first version of the printed circuit board that had been created by another electronics design company. Integra Sources' expertise and our ability to predict possible risks impressed the client so he decided to continue the development of the robotic mower with our company. We were chosen to build peripheral device drivers for the first version of the lawnmower and then continued working on the second, a more advanced version of the circuit board. Solution Our major goal was to develop a machine that could independently cut grass in specified areas of home gardens with minimal supervision. We achieved it by doing research, designing a robotic movement mechanism with electronic control circuitry and programming the controller. We went through several iterations to build the electronics and develop firmware for the robot so it could meet the customer's expectations. The main challenge was to keep within the budget for hardware components. Our client wanted to make the lawnmower accessible to the mass market. Therefore, it needed to be cheaper than its competitors. Result Integra Sources managed to put the project on solid technical footing while lowering the estimated cost of the development effort required. We provided hardware design, prototyping, firmware development, and testing. The delivered result is a fully completed hardware solution for an autonomous robot that doesn't need any supervision. The robotic lawnmower is equipped with algorithms and sensors – camera, accelerometer, gyroscope – that allow the robot to map the area it's about to work on. It's also equipped with a charger and a Wi-Fi and 3G module. To set up the area of operation, you just need to walk around the lawn with the robot so it remembers where to work. After that, it is ready to cut the lawn’s grass 24/7 and will charge itself when it runs out of battery. Technologies used: ● STM32F4 series MCU with the Cortex-M4 core was used for this project. ● FreeRTOS was used for firmware development. ● Microsoft Visual Studio with Visual GDB plugin was used for firmware implementation. ● CMOS sensor (camera) with DVP bus was used. ● The device can connect to the cloud ( server ) using a WiFi or 3G connection. ● The first prototype of the device has a wireless module NRF24L01 to communicate with the base station and LCD with a touchscreen for GUI. ● For precision positioning, GPS , accelerometer , gyroscope, compass ( magnetometer ) and computer vision algorithms are used. ● Altium Designer IDE was used for Schematics and PCB design . ● The firmware was implemented using C/C++ .

AWS Solar Manager
Solution The Solar Manager consists of two parts: a Solar Manager device based on Raspberry Pi 3 which is installed in the house and a Solar Manager Cloud that performs calculations. The Cloud also includes an IoT platform to manage the Solar Manager devices. Our team at Integra Sources developed the Solar Manager Cloud, an energy-efficient system for monitoring the consumption of solar power in households.About Solar energy is on the rise in households around the world. It provides a greener and cheaper alternative to traditional sources of power. Photovoltaic systems that get installed at home often come with a cloud solution that allows for monitoring energy consumption. Request A provider of home solar batteries from Switzerland needed to build Solar Manager, a cloud solution for homes with a photovoltaic (PV) production system. The goal of this software is to optimize power consumption by displaying how much solar energy home appliances consume daily. It was to be offered to homeowners for a monthly subscription fee. Result Solar batteries get installed at home as an alternative source of energy in addition to traditional sources. Solar batteries have a single board computer (SBC) whose job is to calculate how much energy home appliances use every day. The SBC gathers the information on energy consumption and transfers it to the AWS cloud. A user can see their solar production, total electricity use and the power consumption of their main appliances via a dashboard displayed on the web or mobile user interfaces. With these data at hand, homeowners can discover how to reduce their energy consumption. The system was going to support up to 5000 new users per year and we needed to make it possible for the solution to manage this increased data flow. Our client received the solution in a timely manner with all the required features. Technologies used ● The software for Raspberry Pi was implemented using Python . ● PyCharm was used for Raspberry Pi software development. ● Python AWS SDK was used as a package for MQTT protocol support out of the box. ● The software for dashboard was implemented using LAMP stack while utilizing EmonCMS library for energy visualization. ● The AWS mobile SDK for Android and iOS were used to build connected mobile applications using AWS. ● Android Studio was used for Android mobile application development. ● XCode was used for iOS mobile application development.
