IoT Development .
iSkylar builds end-to-end IoT solutions, from firmware and device protocols through to cloud ingestion pipelines, real-time dashboards, and the mobile or web applications your team uses to act on the data. Whether you are connecting industrial machinery, consumer hardware, smart buildings, or logistics assets, we engineer IoT systems that are reliable, secure, and built to operate at scale.

What We Build
IoT Platform & Cloud Architecture
We design and build the cloud backbone your connected devices report to — device registry, message brokers, data ingestion pipelines, time-series storage, and the APIs your applications consume. Scalable from 10 devices to 10 million.
Firmware & Embedded Software
We write firmware for microcontrollers and embedded Linux systems — sensor interfacing, communication protocol implementation (MQTT, CoAP, BLE, LoRaWAN), OTA update mechanisms, and power management for battery-operated devices.
Real-Time Dashboards & Analytics
Web and mobile dashboards that display live sensor data, historical trends, threshold alerts, and anomaly detection outputs — giving operators the visibility to act on what their devices are reporting.
Industrial IoT (IIoT)
We connect factory equipment, industrial sensors, and SCADA systems to modern cloud infrastructure — enabling predictive maintenance, OEE monitoring, and process optimisation without replacing legacy hardware.
IoT Mobile & Web Applications
The user-facing layer of your IoT system — mobile apps for field technicians, web portals for operations managers, and consumer apps for end users — built natively or cross-platform depending on your audience.
IoT Security & Device Management
Device authentication (X.509 certificates, mutual TLS), encrypted data transmission, OTA update security, and remote device management — we build security into IoT architecture from the start, not as an add-on.
AI-POWEREDLearn how we work
Delivered faster with AI tooling
We don't just write code; we orchestrate intelligence. By integrating Copilot-assisted generation and AI-driven automated testing, we reduce time-to-market by up to 40%.
Copilot-Assisted Generation
LLM-backed development to eliminate boilerplate delays.
AI Predictive Testing
Anticipating edge cases before they enter production.

Our Development Journey
A streamlined, transparent path from vision to launch.
01
Discovery & System Architecture
1–2 weeks
We map your device types, communication protocols, data volume estimates, and application requirements — and produce an end-to-end architecture covering firmware, cloud, and application layers before any development begins.
02
Device & Protocol Integration
2–6 weeks
Firmware development or adaptation, protocol implementation (MQTT, BLE, LoRaWAN), device authentication setup, and cloud ingestion pipeline validated with real hardware in a lab environment.
03
Cloud & Data Platform Build
3–8 weeks
IoT cloud infrastructure provisioned, time-series database configured, real-time streaming pipeline live, alert engine implemented, and API layer built for your application to consume.
04
Application Development
3–8 weeks
Dashboard, mobile app, or web portal built in parallel with the cloud platform — using live device data from the staging environment throughout development so the UI reflects real-world behaviour.
05
QA & Field Testing
1–3 weeks
End-to-end system test with real devices under real network conditions — including connectivity loss scenarios, high message volume, and edge case sensor readings.
06
Deployment & Managed Operations
Ongoing
Production rollout, OTA update pipeline live, monitoring and alerting configured, device management console operational, and SLA-backed support for the connected infrastructure.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does an end-to-end IoT system actually include?+
A complete IoT system has three layers: the device layer (firmware, sensors, connectivity), the cloud layer (message broker, ingestion pipeline, storage, analytics), and the application layer (dashboard, mobile app, alerts). We build all three — or connect to your existing hardware at any layer if you already have part of the system in place.
Can you work with our existing hardware?+
Yes. We can write firmware for your existing microcontrollers or embedded Linux devices, connect your hardware to our cloud platform via standard protocols (MQTT, CoAP, HTTP), and integrate proprietary sensor data formats. We assess hardware compatibility during the discovery phase.
What cloud platforms do you use for IoT?+
We primarily use AWS IoT Core and Azure IoT Hub depending on your existing cloud preference. For edge-heavy use cases we use AWS Greengrass or Azure IoT Edge. For time-series data we use TimescaleDB or InfluxDB depending on query patterns.
How do you secure IoT devices and data?+
Device authentication via X.509 certificates and mutual TLS, encrypted MQTT over TLS, secrets stored in hardware security modules where applicable, OTA updates signed and verified, and regular firmware security reviews. IoT security is designed at architecture stage, not added afterwards.
How long does IoT development take?+
A proof of concept with real devices is typically 6–10 weeks. A full production system is usually 16–28 weeks depending on device count, protocol complexity, and application scope.
What does IoT development cost?+
Proof of concepts start from $8,000. Full systems from $30,000. Pricing depends on device types, communication protocols, data volume, and application complexity. Fixed-scope quote after discovery.
Who owns the platform and source code?+
You own everything — firmware source, cloud infrastructure code, application source, and all documentation. We provision the cloud infrastructure in your own accounts so you are never dependent on ours.
Do you support the system after launch?+
Yes. We offer managed platform retainers covering device monitoring, OTA update management, infrastructure scaling, and incident response — with SLA-backed response times for production systems handling live devices.
