During the reporting year, the company continued to develop and improve its microwave wireless data transmission product line. The group continued its work on the design and development of the functionality of the IoT environmental monitoring solution Aranet, as well as work on the development of the cloud service Aranet Cloud.

Implementing a research project

The group continues to invest in the development of new products and product modifications. This year, SAF Tehnika has started the research project “Design and elemental basis study of a real-time spectrum analyser”, which is being carried out as part of a European Regional Development Fund programme. The aim of the study is to obtain comprehensive information on the details of the construction of a real-time analyser for a specific application, as well as to investigate the available elements and their interactions to provide optimal parameters in terms of shape, mass, power consumption, measurement parameters, and functions.

By the end of the study, the information obtained will allow the further evaluation of the resources required for developing a thorough product. Once the project is successfully completed, SAF Tehnika’s existing experience in the spectrum analyser market can be used towards potentially developing a device designed to carry out specific tasks in the field.
