IoT solution for MDC Industria's safes

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel.

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.

long story short 

MDC Industria, specialized in micro data centers and aimed to expand into industrial safes’ production. The goal was to simplify and reduce the costs of deploying and maintaining POPs (Points of Presence) in small to mid-size cities and remote communities. MDC Industria needed a system enabling the devices to communicate and interact with one another as well as get software updates easily from a distance since there was no physical access to the devices. Another challenge was the size of the hardware modules - they usually occupied excessive space within the container and required some optimization. 

The Rebbix team took up the challenge by building a remote control IoT system from the ground up. The solution turned out to be rather flexible and was then repurposed for other devices expanding the product line. At first, it was applied on smart doors serving as secure access points to valuable areas and subsequently scaled to containers. 

In total, our partnership with MDC spanned over 5 years, when we served as a tech ally in launching and developing related products including the time and attendance tracking system and a complex solution for emergency buttons. 

But the most rewarding thing is to see that the results of our partnership turned out to be time-proof and effective in the long run: shipped more than 6 years ago, the IoT system is still in active use by MDC Industria. The safes and containers can operate under harsh outdoor conditions and for extremely long periods despite power outages. All containers offer features like power supply and backup, camera monitoring, biometric access, climate monitoring and control, security, fire, and flood detection, network connectivity, remote control capabilities, and security systems.
