Expertise
Engineering expertise for connected and intelligent products
Indeema engineers the electronics, firmware, cloud, applications and intelligence of connected products. Some products need one discipline done properly. Others need a whole layer owned, or several disciplines made to work as one system. We take the responsibility that fits, and no more.
Find where your need sitsProduct reality
The hard part of a connected product is where the disciplines meet
Each discipline has its specialists. The product works when the interfaces between them are engineered on purpose.
- Device ↔ cloud
What the device reports, how it is updated, and how it recovers when connectivity does not.
- Cloud ↔ application
Which device state a user may see, and how current it has to be.
- Application ↔ device
What a user action does when the device is offline or busy.
Electronics, instruments and prototypes: where a connected product is first measured.
Where Indeema can work
Five areas of engineering. Engage one, or several together
Device & Embedded
The physical device: what it senses, controls and reports.
Cloud & Connected Platform
How device data is received, stored, managed and served.
Applications & Experience
What people use to see the product and act on it.
Intelligence
How AI or decision logic is placed, integrated and validated within the product.
Product Lifecycle
Before, during and after the build.
Scope of responsibility
How much of the product should Indeema be responsible for?
You set the scope. Modernizing an existing product can begin at any of them.
Discipline
Own one engineering discipline.
- Firmware for a new board
- A mobile app for a device that already ships
- Edge AI inside an existing product
Layer
Take responsibility for one coherent product layer.
- The whole embedded layer: electronics, firmware, connectivity
- The cloud platform behind the devices
Connected layers
Connect several disciplines around one product.
- Device-to-cloud architecture
- Hardware, plus the software and cloud around it
Whole product
Engineer the connected product as one system, where that is the right scope.
- One team across device, platform, applications and intelligence
At every scopeArchitectImplementIntegrateEvolve
The wider scope is not the better one. It is the right one when the interfaces are the problem.
Engineering context
What each scope has looked like
Projects, described by the responsibility Indeema held.
- DisciplineFirmware
A firmware prototype to test whether a drone data link could reach the required data rate.
A Wi-Fi data-link firmware prototype for an agricultural drone maker - LayerDevice electronics
Flight-controller and speed-controller boards designed to fit a custom flight stack.
Flight-controller and ESC electronics for a 7-inch drone flight stack - Connected layersDevice, cloud, applications
An air-quality device, its cloud platform and mobile app.
Indoor environment monitor with device, cloud and mobile app - Connected layersCloud, web, applications
An existing heart-signal sensor connected to the cloud, a web portal and mobile apps.

Ways to work with Indeema
How the work is organised
Engineering ownership
Indeema is accountable for a defined scope, from architecture to evolving what it built. You decide at agreed gates.
Joint product team
Indeema engineers work inside your product team, on your roadmap and against interfaces you both own.
Also available: specialist team extension. One scarce specialty joins a team you lead.
Bring the product and the responsibility you are weighing.
Where to go next
Start from the need, or from the product
From the need
- We need someone to own the firmwareEmbedded & Firmware
- We need electronics and hardware engineeringHardware & Electronics
- We have devices and need the cloud sideCloud & Device Data
- We need an app for a device we already haveApps for Connected Products
- A product in the field needs to be maintained or modernizedMaintenance & Support
- We are not sure what to build, or howProduct Discovery & Technical Strategy
From the product
- The product view of the same engineering.Connected Product Engineering
- When the question is what the product should notice, decide and become.Intelligent Products & AI
