We develop customized image recognition solutions for mobile data capture. In many cases, data or measured variables are available visually and can be captured or measured by camera. By applying advanced technologies like machine learning, artificial intelligence (AI), classic image processing, text recognition (OCR) or augmented reality (AR), we make visual data digitally usable to enhance your processes. In this way, we turn the smartphone camera into a mobile scanner and the smartphone into a mobile measuring instrument.
You can find our solutions for capturing energy and consumption data at »pixometer.io.
Data capture and inspection outside of automated production can benefit from mobile image recognition. It can be helpful in maintenance, for selected measurements in production, process and machine control, for efficient assistance of manual processes, process simplification and digitalization.
Deep knowledge of the possibilities (and limitations) of mobile image recognition.
Solutions that are tailored for your processes.
User interfaces that empower the user and support them in their tasks.
Offline-first: Processing and data storage on the mobile device. This allows for immediate user feedback and ensures reliable functionality not requiring network connection.
Our solutions support your data acquisition outside of automated production.
We consider the data acquisition process as a whole: the capture situation, the measurement object, algorithms, user interface, and the user.
We analyze and optimize your processes – preferably in agile projects. We approach the complete solution in manageable sprints. Each step is planned based on the knowledge of the previous step and with your involvement.
We develop solutions for iOS and Android that for your processes.
This can result in a scan module for your existing app, or a data specialized capture app, or a full data capture solution including task delegation, data analysis, business logic and dashboards.
We focus on user interaction and empowerment. The combination of image recognition with tailored user interfaces ensures the quality of the acquired data and efficiency of the acquisition process.

Aareal Meter is the new platform for meter reading for the energy and housing industry as well as caretakers and meter reading service providers commissioned by them. Aareal Meter consists of an order portal and a meter reading app.
ODI Medical develops a highly innovative tool for medical diagnosis — and we create the acquisition software and the backend for it. The development is set up such that it will stand in a later audit for approval for medical device.
In a joint project with the RWTH Aachen hospital and Philips Healthcare, we will develop an app for support and quality assurance in the intensive care documentation.This three-year project is funded in the programme Leitmarktwettbewerb.NRW Gesundheit.
Even mostly automated businesses, not every measuring point is digitalized – if it does not pay off. For a big player in the chemical industry, we have developed a scan module prototype for a more efficient collection and documentation of manometer readings.
Customers of aescoLOGIC use the m.o.p.s inventory management App developed by us for easily ordering medical supplies. They can scan QR codes or just take a picture of the product – either directly in their warehouse or conveniently wherever they go. Furthermore, aescoLOGIC employees use the app on mobile devices with integrated hardware scanners for keeping the warehouses of their clients stocked.
The new App Scan 2 KEM supports the municipal energy management of networks BW / EnBW: Meter readers of municipalities simply scan relevant meter readings monthly via app. Data collected this way is directly transferred to the municipal energy data system.
Together with WAVELINE-MAR.COM, we created a multimedia app for the interactive trade fair presence of SOPHOS TECHNOLOGY. Visitors can watch product videos on a provided tablet. They select the product by pointing the tablet camera at the respective icon at the stand.
We are a team of 15 experts: Skilled engineers and computer scientists, renowned business professionals and senior app and backend developers.
