Beia GmbH

BEIA GmbH is the Austrian office of BEIA Consult International, a R&D performing SME, founded in 1991, and it is one of the leading providers of ICT solutions and services in Balkan/Danube region for cloud communications and IoT telemetry. The company’s references include over 5,000 turn-key projects for advanced IT and communications solutions. BEIA is certified ISO 9001, 14001, 18001 and 27001. We are active in the following domains: service innovation (AI, blockchain, cloud, big data, quantum, etc.), hardware (sensors, actuators, IIoT, IoMT, etc.), information technologies (data analytics, processing back end, interfaces, front end), integration (software/hardware), communication technologies (speech processing, chatbots, ASR/TTS, NLP/NLU, AI, sentiment analysis, emotional computing, contact centers, tele-systems), learning & training, standardization, communication / dissemination / marketing, business development, consultancy, project management. Geographically, BEIA covers the Balkan/Danube region with offices in Romania and Austria, and as fields of activities we target ICT solutions in the following domains: local and central administration, cities and municipalities, industry, agriculture, energy sector, environmental protection, public health, education and culture, national defense and intelligence.

Also, BEIA has experience in coordinating and participating in more than 40 R&D and Innovation projects (FP6, FP7, Structural Funds, H2020, ECSEL/Artemis, Eureka, Eurostars, Celtic, ITEA, COST, AAL, ERA-Net, Interreg, LIFE+, Erasmus+, MSCA, EaP Twinning, JTIs, etc.). http://www.beia.eu

Moreover, BEIA has implemented and integrated IoT telemetry applications in the field of smart buildings (monitoring HVAC, light, smart power plugs), smart city (noise, air quality, mobility), e-health (tele-diagnosis of diabetes, emergency communication systems for patients, nurses and doctors), environment (monitoring of water, soil and air quality), hydro energy (tele-monitoring of level and flow), solar energy (measurement of solar radiation in photo-voltaic parks, forecasting of energy production according to meteorology sensors, monitoring inverters), agriculture (frost warnings, disease alert for plants, evapo-transpiration calculations, measurement of cumulated degree days), accurate water data (water sensors for hydrographical purposes, from precipitation to water level monitoring of lakes, rivers, wells), efficient water management (leak and burst detection, pressure, flow, level and well monitoring), irrigation management (including sensors for measuring soil moisture, monitor water uptake), heliports (measurement of meteorological parameters), underground (monitoring oil/gas exploration sites, mining tunnels). Some other IoT/Telemetry use cases (including blockchain, AI and quantum security) we are implementing are presented here: http://eng.beia-telemetrie.ro

Main Contributions : BEIA will contribute with experience in speech big data processing and will contribute to development, integration and exploitation tasks. Added value will be provided by developing a use case based on a call/contact center platform with unified communication technology, CRM/ERP/SCM system, ‘text-to-speech (TTS)’ / ‘automatic speech recognition (ASR)’ solutions and integrating search based applications for processing diverse big data from sensors. BEIA is managing datasets about different online domains (IT&C, car insurance, etc.) and also sensor networks (environmental parameters, weather, etc.) and wants to analyse customer attitude and orient their experience during browsing by gathering data from virtual sensors for tracking the users and perform system integration, as well as big data search and analytics for online shopping (including emotion detection in speech from tele-sales call-centers). We can use know-how from big data processing software – data collection & aggregation, data fusion (semantic integration of unstructured and/or structured content from diverse data silos), data mining module, multimedia content analysis module, sentiment analysis modules.
