Mobile
Engineering
for Smart Camera Performance
We develop native iOS and Android apps that interface directly with smart camera
hardware—handling real-time video streaming,
BLE/Wi-Fi communication, on-device event processing, and live view optimization.
Our Expertise
in Mobile Engineering
We engineer native mobile applications that are tightly integrated with IoT camera hardware, supporting live video,
real-time device control, and secure connectivity at scale.
Native Development
We develop native iOS (Swift, Objective-C) and Android (Kotlin, Java) apps that connect to embedded systems using BLE, Wi-Fi, and proprietary protocols. The apps manage device provisioning, two-way sync, OTA updates, real-time telemetry from edge devices.
Streaming & Playback Optimization
We implement encrypted WebRTC pipelines for live video and optimize playback with codec-aware rendering, adaptive buffering, and responsive media controls.
IoT & Connectivity
BLE/Wi-Fi communication stacks, device onboarding, certificate-based authentication, and robust OTA firmware update workflows. We support proprietary communication protocols and real-time command-response communication.
UX Engineering & Design Systems
Responsive, hardware-aware interfaces built with accessibility, animation frameworks, and adaptive layouts. Figma-integrated design systems ensure speed and consistency across products.
Security & Performance
Biometric authentication, keychain/keystore protection, encrypted local storage, and TLS-based transport security. We tune memory usage, CPU loads, and background handling for optimal performance.
QA & Continuous Delivery
Full-stack test automation across unit, integration, and end-to-end layers. CI pipelines include real-device testing, performance benchmarks, regression checks, and App Store policy compliance.
Core Frameworks & Architecture
Reusable libraries for network sync, feature toggles, push notifications, and app state management. Designed for scalability and consistency across multiple projects.
AI/ML Integration
Support for on-device and cloud-based ML tasks: facial recognition, behavior analysis overlays and predictive monitoring built into mobile UX.
App Store Release Management
Version control, store metadata handling, A/B rollout, phased releases, and real-time feedback analysis for Apple App Store and Google Play.
Observability & Telemetry
Integrated runtime analytics, crash monitoring, performance telemetry, and usage heatmaps—allowing continuous optimization and insight into real-world usage patterns.
Release Engineering & Delivery Operations
Structured delivery workflows, release train coordination, and internal feature flag systems for safe, iterative releases.
Predictable Planning & Process Control
Agile methodology, transparent sprint planning, and milestone-driven delivery with full visibility into progress, risks, and outcomes—backed by certified technical project managers.

Our Process
Our mobile development process is built for clarity, performance, and scalability—designed to support
deeply integrated apps for smart cameras and connected devices.
Strategize
We align business goals, hardware constraints, and user expectations through stakeholder workshops—producing a mobile feature roadmap, UX research insights, and technical scoping documents.
Design
We define mobile architecture, state flows, and communication protocols—while our UX team delivers interactive prototypes, screen maps, and early UI mockups tailored for real-world IoT use.
Develop
Agile dev teams implement and deliver features covered with unit tests. Manual QA teams verify features end-to-end as a part of the development process and cooperate with SDETs to automate the majority of manual efforts for future sustainability.
Launch
We manage release pipelines, staged rollouts, crash monitoring, and App Store / Google Play compliance—ensuring a stable, high-quality launch with measurable KPIs from day one.
SustaiN
Post-launch, we deliver feature updates, OTA support, app refactoring (e.g., migration to Swift/Kotlin, compliance with the new regulation policies (such as European Accessibility Act or App stores policy updates), localization, and long-term performance and telemetry monitoring.
