M2M2H - Machine to Maven to Human

A unified framework for connecting your devices seamlessly!
 

Maven Systems’ remote monitoring solution is a customizable framework targeted towards numerous application areas.

It is a ‘hardware + software’ solution that can easily mould itself in domain specific requirements. GSM, GPRS and low range RF based M2M (Machine to Maven) controllers and an extremely powerful software M2H (Maven to Human) framework combine to form a reliable remote monitoring solution. The human experience is such that every user is convinced that the application is specially crafted considering his (industry) problem statements.
