In an era where real-time sensor data is crucial for operational efficiency, Visiosoft and Kinéis have joined forces to revolutionise internet of things (IoT) connectivity. This powerful collaboration brings a global, satellite-powered solution that ensures seamless data transmission, even in the most remote areas where traditional networks fail.
The Visiosoft-Kinéis collaboration is more than just and IoT upgrade – it’s a paradigm shift in connectivity. As industries evolve, access to real-time, uninterrupted data will be the key to unlocking new levels of efficiency, safety, and innovation.
“By integrating Visiosoft’s cutting-edge IoT solutions with Kinéis’ advanced satellite network, we bring global, uninterrupted sensor data to industries that need it most – regardless of their location,”says Johan Dirker, Visiosoft, CEO.
“Globally, businesses in agriculture, mining, logistics, and beyond can now monitor, track, and optimize operations in real-time. It’s an exciting step forward for South African-born innovation with a truly global impact.”
85% of the Earth’s surface is not covered by terrestrial networks. This results in many industries not operating efficiently in those areas or undertaking expensive operations to bridge the connectivity gaps.
Unlike traditional IoT solutions that rely on cellular or Wi-Fi networks, Visiosoft and Kinéis’ satellite-based IoT ecosystem works anywhere on the planet. This means businesses no longer need to worry about network dead zones – from the deepest jungles to the most arid deserts, the middle of the ocean, or remote industrial sites.
Kinéis specialises in enabling connectivity globally. To that end, the company has embarked on a mission to launch 25 nanosatellites. Visiosoft specialises in reliably gathering sensor data into the cloud, regardless of the technology and communication protocols employed.
By leveraging satellite IoT technology, the partnership provides reliable, global connectivity, ensuring that businesses never lose access to critical data – no matter where they operate.
🌍 Logistics & Supply Chain – Ensuring real-time fleet tracking across cross-border and remote routes.
⛏ Mining, Energy & Resources – Providing asset monitoring and worker safety insights in remote mine sites.
🌾 Agriculture & Smart Farming – Enabling precision agriculture in areas with no terrestrial network coverage.
🛢 Oil & Gas – Enhancing pipeline monitoring, offshore asset tracking, and operational safety in remote drilling sites.
💧 Water Management – Supporting smart metering, leak detection, and remote monitoring of reservoirs, dams, and irrigation systems.
“The solution developed by Visiosoft enables us to provide our service with a unique level of performance. The flexibility of the solution enables it to interface with existing monitoring systems and all sensors and probes on the market. This makes a considerable contribution to guaranteeing operations and reducing the resources required for industrial activities,” Kinéis.
The power of satellite IoT
Visiosoft’s advanced hardware combined with Kinéis’ satellite network creates a robust, low-power, always-on communication system. This integration allows businesses to:
🛰️ Monitor assets, vehicles, and equipment in real-time
🌍 Track movements and environmental conditions in remote areas
📡 Optimize operations by leveraging uninterrupted data streams
⚠️ Reduce operational risks by ensuring constant visibility
With the rapid advancements in IoT, AI-driven analytics, and remote sensing, the role of satellite IoT will only continue to expand. As industries look toward a more sustainable and data-driven future, seamless, uninterrupted connectivity is no longer a luxury—it’s a necessity.
Recognizing this, Kineis has embarked on a mission to launch 25 nanosatellites, revolutionizing global IoT connectivity by providing a reliable, cost-effective, and universal communication solution. This next-generation constellation will expand coverage, enhance data transmission speeds, and unlock new possibilities for industries operating in remote and challenging environments (learn more).
“We are excited to see this partnership between Visiosoft and Kinéis unfold. Every now and then, we see a true industry shift. It’s rewarding to see that play out between one of our leading global South players and a leading global North player,”” Thaheer Mullins, Savant Venture Fund 1, Partner.
Savant Venture Fund invest in companies that redefine industries and Visiosoft is doing just that. Their new partnership with Kinéis is bridging the connectivity gap with a game-changing satellite IoT solution.
