Experienced research partner

time critical Artificial Internet of Things (AIoT) and a team with experience in R&D service innovation (AI, blockchain, cloud, big data, quantum security), hardware (sensors, actuators, IoT), information technologies (data analytics, back end, interfaces, front end), integration (software/hardware), communication technologies (speech processing, ASR/TTS, NLP/NLU, sentiment analysis, emotional computing), communication/ dissemination/marketing, project management.

BEIA provides innovative IoT-based telemetry services for multiple market verticals, including environmental monitoring, agriculture, smart city development, cybersecurity, energy etc. The service is provided through a web browser and will be billed based on time of usage to customers in the DACH region. Beia is developing in-house an innovative service, where the mirrored IoT object, referred to as VO, is regarded as one of the main components of the proposed approach. Also, time critical cloud computing is deployed to enable industrial IoT and CPS for Industry 4.0, including usage of AI federated learning and blockchain for trust, transparency and traceability. Building upon the concept of the Digital or Device Twin, each VO is going to support a set of functionalities related to IoT devices management and IoT data management. Through the support of a local data store per VO, privacy and distributed data management functionalities will be developed. Data monetisation aspects will be also supported, since by combining data collected by the VO with functionalities provided by the data management IoT enablers, real-time and offline data streams can be made available. Distributed AI mechanisms will be also developed taking advantage of the distributed data made available at the edge part of the infrastructure. Furthermore, semantic interoperability is supported based on the registration of IoT devices represented by various semantic modelling approaches and their support through the associated VOs. Furthermore, a set of intelligent IoT devices are going to be made available to be compatible with existing devices (e.g., Siemens Sensor Box, Bosch IoT Eclipse plugin, wearables from various vendors) supporting the proposed approach for IoT devices modeling, management and interoperability and evaluating their acceptability and trust levels by end users. We will outsource testing and proof-of-concepts to relevant Research Institutes.

We are active in the following domains: service innovation (AI, blockchain, cloud, big data, quantum security, etc.), hardware (sensors, actuators, IIoT, IoMT, etc.), information technologies (data analytics, processing back end, interfaces, front end), integration (software/hardware), communication technologies (speech processing, chatbots, ASR/TTS, NLP/NLU, AI, sentiment analysis, emotional computing, contact centers, tele-systems), learning & training, standardization, communication / dissemination / marketing, business development, go-to-market, consultancy, project management. Geographically, BEIA covers the Balkan/Danube region with offices in Romania, Austria and Belgium, and as fields of activities we target ICT solutions in the following domains: local and central administration, cities and municipalities, industry, agriculture, energy sector, environmental protection, public health, education and culture, national defense and intelligence.
