About The Customer
The customer in this case study is a manufacturer of wearable devices, which include fitness trackers and medical and healthcare monitors. These devices are part of the rapidly growing Internet of Things (IoT) market. The manufacturer aims to provide end consumers with increased data on their health and wellness through these devices. However, they face challenges in securely collecting and displaying this data on mobile devices, as well as connecting the devices to a secure and scalable cloud. The manufacturer seeks a solution that allows them to bring secure, reliable connected products to market quickly and cost-effectively.
The Challenge
The wearable device market represents one of the quickest growing segments of the Internet of Things (IoT). From wearable fitness trackers to medical and healthcare monitors, devices are becoming cheaper and more powerful, contributing to double-digit growth. All the while, providing end consumers with an increased amount of data on their health and wellness. Collecting consumer health and wellness data, and displaying it on a mobile device in a secure fashion is not an easy task. The ability to connect these wearable devices to a secure and scalable cloud is often beyond the scope of device manufacturers.
The Solution
Ayla enables wearable device manufacturers to create cloud-connected versions of their wearables that are part of the Internet of Things (IoT). The Ayla IoT Platform provides comprehensive device, cloud, and mobile app connectivity. It allows wearable device manufacturers to bring secure, reliable connected products to market quickly and easily, in a cost-effective manner. Connected wearable devices such as health monitoring devices generate operational data—specific to each product’s performance—that can be analyzed and used to gather anonymized medical data for research purposes, enable manufacturers to improve future versions of their wearable devices based on real-world knowledge of current products’ performance, and offer premium services, such as in-depth reporting and analytics to enable lifestyle changes.
Operational Impact
  • Wearable device manufacturers can monitor device usage and collect anonymized data with customer approval.
  • They can reprogram control parameters, update firmware, and fix software bugs using OTA updates.
  • Manufacturers can set up custom text or email alerts based on health triggers.
  • They can diagnose device issues remotely and offer additional value-added services, such as personal coaching.
  • Users of wearable devices leveraging the Ayla IoT Platform can use mobile or web-based management applications to remotely monitor loved one’s vitals, configure prompts based on activity levels, compare wellness statistics to others, view alerts from the devices using email and SMS, automatically sync with the device when in range, and integrate with speech-based UIs like Apple’s Siri.
