This document discusses how IoT can reshape digital products and the future of a company called DycodeX. It describes how DycodeX started by developing a photo collecting service for weddings but identified problems with relying on manual processes. This led them to explore IoT to automate tasks, reduce costs, and make processes more reliable. Now, DycodeX designs all electronics and develops all firmware and software in-house in Indonesia. They collaborate with telecom companies to test IoT networks and help farmers through an IoT-based cattle monitoring product. Implementing IoT as the core of their business has opened opportunities and challenges.

playing music instrument,
reading, and writing stories.

3. DycodeX
Our vision is to solve big problems with
technology. Today, we’re pioneering and
leading in developing end-to-end
home-grown IoT & AI-based systems in
Indonesia, and enable maker movement
along the way.

4. What’s IoT?

5. Internet of Things
Network of physical objects with embedded
electronics, software, connectivity, and people to
enable connectivity to exchange data, for intelligent
applications and services.

6. Internet of Things
Brings people with different background of
expertise together.

7. Internet of Things is NOT just “hardware”

8. Simpler view of IoT

9. Why IoT?
A brief history of DycodeX ahead….

10. Days when I wasn’t even a DyCoder*

11. Wedding of Andri (CEO of DycodeX) and Gina (COO of DycodeX)
Problem:
Interesting photos were taken by invitees

12. We created cloud based photo collecting service

13. We made business out of it

14. Rebrand it to Jepret Cloud

15. Still, there are problems

16. Can you spot the problem?

17. Again, can you spot the problem?

20. The Problems
● We use MacBook
● Yes, you read & heard it right, MacBook!
● No automated printing
● Requires operator to operate the printing software

22. Recap: Why IoT
● Lower operational costs
● Less human interaction for automated tasks

23. Recap: Why IoT
● Lower operational costs
● Less human interaction for automated tasks
● Human are less reliable than machine to gather
data
● There are problems that just can’t be solved by
apps alone

24. How do we do IoT?
Let’s hear what the chef has to say...

25. We design almost everything

26. In House
100% designed and assembled, also firmware is developed in-house
by 100% Indonesian, in Indonesia.

27. Development boards for faster prototyping

28. We even made them

29. ESP32 Specs

30. We design and develop our own apps

31. IoT Back-End Services
● We adopt and sometimes mix common architectures
together to fit the product needs
○ Microservices Architecture
○ Event-Driven Architecture

32. Recap: How do we do IoT?
● We design and assemble the electronics in-house in
Indonesia
● We develop the firmware for IoT devices in-house in
Indonesia
● We use development boards during prototyping and
research
● We design and develop the software parts
○ Android, iOS, and web apps
○ IoT back-end services

33. How far is the impact of implementation
of IoT to our products and business?
IoT is the core of our business...

34. One of the impact of implementing IoT as the
core of our business and products is
Collaboration

35. We collaborate with telco in
testing NB-IoT networks

36. We helped a telco to test their first NB-IoT field test in a farm in
West Java.

37. By helping telco testing NB-IoT network (both in
labs and in field), we also help them to accelerate
the enablement of NB-IoT in more and more
areas in Indonesia so that everyone of us can
benefit from it.

38. Our product, SMARTernak eases the everyday
life of cattle farmer.

39. For us, implementing IoT as the core of our
business and products has given us a lot of good
opportunities, challenges, and great
collaborations.

41. Internet of Things unlocks the greater possibilities
and opportunities that will significantly increase
the values that we offer in our products.

42. Thank You!
