From RF engineering to full-stack IoT

Apollo Innovation R&D brings over 16 years of wireless networking expertise to the NB-IoT space. Our vertically integrated approach — from patented modulation techniques to licensed spectrum and custom hardware — gives us unmatched control over every layer of the communication stack.

We don't just build sensors. We build the entire network they run on — base stations, modems, protocols, and cloud infrastructure — purpose-built for smart city and utility deployments.

Infrastructure that thinks

From streetlights to water meters — our solutions bring real-time intelligence to municipal and utility infrastructure.

Apollo Hardware Portfolio — goRAN Base Station, Apollo Radioboard, NLC Streetlight Controller, Apollo Cloud Platform

NB-IoT Smart Lighting

Networked LED streetlight controllers with real-time dimming, fault detection, energy monitoring, and autonomous scheduling — all connected via our NB-IoT network.

Smart City

Utility Metering (AMI)

Advanced Metering Infrastructure for water, gas, and electric utilities. NB-IoT-connected Aclara meters with cloud dashboards and automated leak/tamper detection.

Utilities

Environmental Monitoring

Air quality, temperature, humidity, and flood-level sensors deployed across urban environments. Apollo MQTT protocol delivers 45-second cycle real-time data.

Environment

Apollo Cloud Platform

Centralized dashboard for all deployed infrastructure. Real-time MQTT ingestion, AI-powered anomaly detection, role-based access, and automated alerting.

Platform

goRAN Base Station

Co-developed with Ubiik — compact NB-IoT small cell supporting MFBI multi-band operation on licensed Band 103 spectrum. Tower or rooftop deployable.

Infrastructure

Apollo RF Modem

Proprietary STM32 + ADF7021-N transceiver. 2W output, GMSK/4FSK modulation, mesh/relay capable. Purpose-built for long-range sensor networks on Band 103.

Hardware
The digital backbone behind our infrastructure

Purpose-built software tools that give our teams, partners, and clients full control over every deployment.

Apollo Code Assistant

AI-powered development environment for firmware engineering and IoT platform work. Integrated voice input, thinking messages, and tool access for rapid prototyping.
