Description:
Symboticware has been serving blue chip mining companies including Glencore, Vale, and Newmont for more than a decade with our proprietary telemetry system and patented communication technologies. Over the last 14 years, Symboticware has mastered the art of extracting data from the heavy and light duty vehicles in the industry. This data includes vehicle telemetry, health, and operational data including fuel consumption, emissions, cycle time etc. We have more than 400 hardware systems (Symbot) installed North America. In addition to the ability to extract data from disparate set of vehicles, Symboticware has a large library of vehicle make and models for which our system is simply a plug-and-play. Symboticware complements the data extraction with cutting edge communication technologies including patented store-and-forward that enable the data transfer to a centralized cloud/on-prem server. We recently deployed a new communication technology called Data Muling to extract and transfer data from offshore equipment that don't normally have access to connectivity. Last year, we invested ourselves in finding our purpose. The raison d'etre for Symboticware's existence. We found our purpose in solving the 5 billion tonne CO2 problem. Across the resource industries, mobile equipment produce 5 billion tonne of CO2 every year. We realized that with our proprietary technology and domain expertise we're the best solution for industry's problem. And we have a responsibility to do so.
