Cases

This project involved R&D to develop a mobile app in the context of Industry 4.0 solutions. It allows the configuration, operation and remote monitoring of frequency invertors and soft starter drives for motors for industrial applications. Since they are large scale equipment that work at high voltage, they are most often located in secured spaces with restricted access. The communication uses wireless Bluetooth and Wi-Fi technologies, allowing remote intervention through a secure area and with the possibility for a more complete and intuitive interface and the facilities to activate profiles stored in a database and sharing of information on the drives. 

The Millennium GYMKHANA was a cultural and educational action for supporting digital and social inclusion related to sustainability and the eight millennium objectives proposed by the United Nations. By participating in the gymkhana, students and teachers in a school system could learn about the issue of sustainability, its local challenges, and global solutions, by participating in a series of activities and interactive contents. They also received stimulus and technical support to organize projects and constructively intervene in the socio-environmental reality of their region. The gymkhanas were conducted between 2006 and 2010. The total public attended reached nearly 10 thousand participants, from three metropolitan regions, 33 municipalities, and 83 public schools. 

Sapientia conceived and implemented a portal to promote an initiative for electrical mobility. The project encompassed the conception and visual identity, a content management tool, metrics for executing the program, and promotion of the location of the electric vehicle charging stations to support the promotion and increase social engagement with the initiative.  

This case conducts R&D with the objective of integrating connectivity and functionalities for a family of Uninterruptible Power Supply UPS type devices. A Wi-Fi connectivity module was integrated to the basic control unit of the device. Embedded software was developed to control the communication and flow of logical commands. An app for smartphones and tablets allows the initial configuration, control and monitoring of parameters. 

This case involved R&D of a communication solution to improve and reduce waiting time and movement of harvest vehicles, through applications installed in a tablet type mobile device that allow an operator with an “Awaiting Dispatch” status to visually find the location and direction of the vehicle solicited. 

This is an app for use in smartphones and tablets that allows users to interact and manage their connected devices. The solution implements functionalities such as user management, commissioning and initial configuration, communication protocols and control and monitoring of parameters. The solution is inserted in the context of a complete connectivity platform for the Internet of Things (IoT). 

This is an application for use in smartphones that is integrated in a system that diagnoses certain diseases using blood samples. The software uses cell phone cameras to capture images from a cartridge containing a blood sample in reagents to apply computer vision algorithms that infer the rest results.

This project involved R&D for development on the Windows platform of a compiler for the Structured Text language based on Norma IEC-61131-3, as well as the creation of a module integrated to the NetBeans platform customized to support the  Structured Text programming language. The result of the process of compilation is an intermediary Instruction List code. This is a low-level machine language, similar to Assembly, used to program the procedures of industrial automation equipment.

The purpose of this project is to integrate different systems for managing court documents, automating their handling in higher courts, thus reducing time of deliberations and operating costs. As a proof of concept, it will also assess the application of artificial intelligence algorithms to evaluate analyses of admissibility of lawsuits. 

Participation in the R&D of prototyping of a Reverse Sales Machine to collect beverage containers that will be sent for recycling. The user interface was developed, as well as the method for managing the incentive credits given to users and the communication layer with CLP.

This case involved executing R&D for a software platform for remote monitoring and diagnosis of electrical-medical equipment. The system also allows tracking technical services staff in the field to improve service, establishing priorities based on criteria that are given parameters in the system, which reduces the costs for services, decreases the time of inactivity of equipment and makes service processes and support to users of the services more agile. 

This is a program to develop navigation flows, interfaces, monitoring and administration for the system for submitting and evaluating ideas in incentive programs for innovative entrepreneurship. The platform, which has a national scope, administers the cycle of evaluation of proponents and the judgements of the team of evaluators, implementing the rules of the entrepreneurship program. 

This project involved virtualization of the game Health Defenders, which is an integral part of the Simplyhealthy@Schools program, a global initiative based on private social investment that uses the action of corporate volunteers as a tool to engage the internal public of sponsoring companies. This project supports initiatives for corporate sustainability and materializes the mission of improving the quality of life of people. It is dedicated to raising awareness of children in low-income families throughout the world about living in a more healthy manner. The objective of the execution of the evaluation pilot, which included 116 students from six 4th, 5th and 6th grade elementary school classes was to evaluate the efficiency of an online game and of a pedagogical dynamic for use in classrooms to support learning and consolidation of concepts about sustainability and well-being, and to verify if the methodology of application, using the One Laptop Per Child educational laptops, was the most suitable.
