British Research maintains a close working relationship with Glamorgan University and has current research projects in; Smart Metering Technology System, Remote Health Monitoring products and systems and Static and fixed carbon and green house gas monitoring equipment.
British Research has a range of products available which provide solutions in the areas of the Environment, Remote Health Monitoring and Smart Metering.
We have developed a range of monitoring devices (standalone or networked into an integrated system) to help monitor and validate the estimation of the output of CO2 and other atmospheric pollutants that may be emitted in the course of running a business and we help to relate this to the Carbon Audit Process.
During the past few years there has been a growing emphasis on taking personal responsibility for one’s health. British Research has developed its Remote Health Monitoring System, which is a range of products which enable people to monitor existing health conditions e.g. Blood Pressure Monitoring. Such products allow people with existing medical complaints to better manage their condition.
We are able to offer a wide range of SMART/AMI solutions including GPRS, ZigBee and Bluetooth, including meter design using HAN and WAN networks. The main purpose of smart metering is to instigate energy and CO2 emissions, this is done by analysing the vast amounts of data collected (half hourly readings) in order to evaluate the electricity consumption of consumers, so that energy reductions can be made.
British Research also offers a range of technology solutions in Communications, Monitoring Measurement & Control, System Integration and Data Management and we are able to provide technology transfer.
We have developed a professional Linux based Control System Architecture which facilitates the creation of networks wired or wireless sensors, controllers and display systems that can be easily configured to provide an extremely efficient and cost effective Monitoring and Control Solutions. Our system provides the ability to move from small stand alone touch screen modules, with built in network features, through to large scale, multi-screen Management Control room, without the need to reconfigure the arrangement whenever changes are required.
The heart of these technologies consists of common platforms which are easily adapted for multiple sensor & control circuits, communications mediums and data processing. We will support our clients through our customer experience programme providing full documentation, training, thorough testing procedures and troubleshooting.British Research continuously strives to provide quality solutions designed to fit customer needs.
