We develop solutions for a connected world; real world devices that connect across fixed and wireless networks to utilise remote databases and web services and can interact with users via web browser, mobile phone or email. At Paragon we call these Connected Products and you can read about some of their advantages here.

  • Database Data-centres, PCs and devices use databases to store information. A database organises data and maintains relationships and search indexes.
  • Web services Internet hosted systems that communicate with both applications and devices to provide a service, specifically using SOAP and/or RESTful protocols.
  • Reporting engine Business intelligence applications perform data mining and processing to generate reports that analyse performance and assist decision making.
  • Email Automated email is a cost effective means of delivering information such as alerts or reports to users.
  • Text messaging The Short Message Service (SMS) is an instant communication tool that can reach users where ever they are via their mobile phone.
  • Rich web applications Websites that provide rich user interfaces matching or exceeding the functionality of desktop software using “Web 2.0” frameworks such as AJAX, Silverlight and Flash.
  • Desktop applications Software designed for any range of tasks performed on a personal computer platform and often interconnected with a larger network of services and connected devices.
  • Remote access Systems can be at remote or unmanned locations, or provide their services to users who are on the move. Remote access often uses wireless telecommunications.
  • Environmental sensing Temperature, humidity, electricity and other sensors provide critical alarms and intelligence for industries including food, laboratory and energy efficiency.
  • Physiological monitoring Heart rate monitoring and other vital and biomechanical sensing provide information essential to applications in fields such as healthcare and athletics.
  • GPS Navigation, tracking and location based services use Global Positioning. It can also synchronise clocks and is often coupled with magnetometers and accelerometers.
  • Robotics Intelligent machines found in home and industry interact with our world to automate tasks. Applications range from entertainment and healthcare to military.
