Lack of political decisions hampers the electrification of commercial transport
The lack of high-power charging stations slows down the growth of commercial urban transport. Without public charging stations, machines are dependent on their own chargers at depots, which will further increase the amount of investment needed.
Software design as part of the electrifying machinery industry
With the electrification of the machine industry, the need for new skills has increased. When the core of a product is no longer the mechanical or hydraulic power of a diesel engine but pure electricity, we need experts in new fields who understand both electricity and the varying applications of machines.
How does electrification affect Finnish machinery manufacturing?
The Finnish engineering industry is becoming electrified. Many manufacturers are adding machines equipped with electrical power lines to their product range. In the building of mobile machinery, the core of the product is no longer a diesel engine and the mechanical or hydraulic force it produces. Now we need new types of experts to harness electric power for profital use.
Software Leadership – From chaos to self-organization
Starting software projects with a new team can be overwhelming. In between achieving customer satisfaction and meeting sales expectations; there is the challenge of aligning skills and expertise for success. This article breaks down various stages of a software project and how team organization can affect the outcome.
Huld and Devatus to Unite – The boldest Design House of the Galaxy keeps growing
Technology and design house Huld Oy has acquired software development house Devatus Oy. After the acquisition, Huld employs over five hundred people in Finland and Czechia. The combined turnover of the two companies is over forty million euros.
From satellite observations to everyday tools
We have been working on satellite data for over 30 years. In 1989, the European Space Agency (ESA) designed a satellite to explore the environment. This bus-sized ENVISAT satellite studied the ozone layer, among other things. We participated in the creation of the software for the satellite’s ozone instrument and the processing of data on the ground. Since then, electronics and the launch of satellites into space have become cheaper, and the need for satellite-based services has increased.
From algae observations to Space Situational Awareness – Satellite observations helping society
Information about the surrounding world can be obtained in many different ways. The method that rarely comes to mind is the satellites orbiting the earth. We can track our food messengers from the map of a mobile app, and we can check the weather data in real time across the globe – satellites are the ones providing us with this information.
From Data Analytics to Data Management
Data analytics goes hand in hand with data management. With data analytics, we developed a solution for predictive maintenance of railway infrastructure with our client VR FleetCare. Together, data analytics and data management open doors to new business opportunities.
Data Analytics and Prediction
Gathering data has become easier and more effortless than before. The benefits of data are multiple: it allows you to find more efficient solutions and make smarter choices. Together with VR FleetCare, we developed a solution for proactive maintenance of railway infrastructure with data analytics.
WISA Woodsat to make a test flight from Seinäjoki
Seinäjoki will reach out into space in February as the technology company Huld and Arctic Astronautics send a test version of the WISA Woodsat satellite to visit the stratosphere. Seinäjoki, as the capital of the Pohjanmaa district, famous for its open space and plains, is a natural choice for satellite testing, and the satellite itself has been designed with local expertise.
