i-BA is a real time locations analytics company that captures difficult to get data which is analysed and delivered to create a decision support system - kpi dashboard - for airport security processing hall operations of their passenger queues. Queue and passenger flow management and capacity predictions allow for efficient resource optimisation. We have created and deployed ‘remote’ ‘standalone’ mini sensors with deep dive data capture i.e. we can wake up smart devices in close proximity to sensor, capture online web viewing behaviour and other data accessed from the smart device. Using a powerful data visualisation tool we can demonstrate how everybody in the security queue could be related / connected to each other in real time.

Manufactured in the UK, LifeSaver products are portable water filters that are pressurised by hand.  This air pressure is pushed into the container which then forces water through the pores of an ultrafiltration membrane cartridge and out through the exit nozzle leaving microbiological contamination behind. Our technology provides a physical barrier against waterborne microbiological contamination such as viruses, bacteria and cysts. No chemicals or electrical power is required.

A CONTINUUM OF INNOVATION

From the beginning, iDirect has taken a visionary role in VSAT, helping to shape the industry by breaking down long-standing barriers. In a landmark innovation, we developed an IP-based system that mirrored the quality and reliability of terrestrial communications 
to deliver, for the first time in satellite history, enterprise-quality applications. This breakthrough helped transform satellite from a “technology of last resort” to a powerful, diverse solution able to handle core network applications and take broadband into the 
heart of critical enterprise, military and public sector operations. We were first to bring business-quality IP applications to the TDMA VSAT market. Our native IP design, advanced IP routing and Quality of Service (QoS) technologies allow our Platform 
to integrate seamlessly with terrestrial networks. This was a major game changer for service providers — they now had the technology to build and deliver high-quality service that could generate fresh demand for satellite connectivity. For sustained success, we knew that a higher degree of flexibility and scalability was essential. From the start, we have based our development approach on one universal set of requirements to enable service providers to meet any customer requirement, no matter the application, bandwidth, satellite, frequency, or topology. We ensured that our hub and line card system, remotes, and operating and management software all had the flexibility to handle the most diverse market needs for fixed or mobile communications. The result is the iDirect Intelligent Platform™, the industry’s gold standard in performance, efficiency, functionality and flexibility.
