While environmental test chambers have long been critical to the development and success of new technologies, they’ve historically been left behind when it comes to their own advancements.
Things are changing, however—and fast. The AESONE CONNECT family of products has helped companies keep pushing forward despite social distancing requirements imposed by the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. This is just the tip of the iceberg in terms of what the technology can do for teams.
In fact, the larger and more dispersed your company, the greater the benefits from remote dashboard monitoring for your environmental test chambers.
Here are several ways it can change the game for you:
With traditional test chamber technology, the testing and reporting process typically goes something like this:
With remote dashboard monitoring, the process becomes both simpler to manage, and more effective for monitoring your results. Here’s what it looks like with AESONE CONSOLE:
In many cases, different product teams, and even companies, need to share the same chamber or chambers. Traditionally, this introduces a layer of security risk that can be eliminated with a remote dashboard. Because AESONE CONSOLE lives on your company's network—through a standard, well-documented JSON API—you won't rely on a third-party security system to keep your data protected.
Each of these innovations means that the days of test chambers operating as standalone devices are coming to an end—along with the frustrations and unnecessary repetition involved in dealing with those devices.
Networked chambers create a variety of benefits and efficiencies, including easy collaboration for distributed teams; the ability to share across teams, product lines, and even companies; and enhanced security features.
In addition, remote dashboard monitoring provides a single, secure hub for controlling all of your chambers—including older models and those manufactured by other companies, which can be retrofitted with AESONE CONNECT Hardware and Software. This enables better management of testing processes, quicker feedback and decision-making, and greater visibility for key stakeholders across your organization, regardless of your current setup.
Test chambers have been integral to the development of many of the key technologies of the 21st century; for the first time, networking and remote access bring state-of-the-art technology into the chambers themselves, improving chamber management, productivity gains, and the potential to reimagine how and where testing takes place.
