Splight — The Box / Energy technology · Embedded & cloud systems
From electrical signals to cloud intelligence.
Embedded software and a cloud API for The Box, part of Splight’s early energy platform: reading grid measurements and connecting them to real-time analysis.
The client
Splight develops technology for electric grids. The Box was an internal component of an earlier generation of its core platform.
The challenge
Read measurements and relay signals from electrical infrastructure, process data from different protocols and deliver it to a cloud analysis pipeline in real time.
What we built
C and C++ software on embedded Linux for signal acquisition and processing, together with a Go API on AWS. The system normalized measurements into JSON, performed calculations and passed the data to a downstream real-time AI process.
Architecture & engineering
The acquisition layer used C and C++ on embedded Linux, working with electrical-network protocols including IEC 61850, IEC 60870 and IEEE C37.118. A Go API on AWS received the normalized measurements, processed them and forwarded them to a Python AI service developed by another team.
Delivery
Design, implementation and testing across the embedded acquisition software and the cloud API. The downstream Python AI process was outside our scope.
What’s working
An implemented data path from electrical-network measurements to the cloud analysis pipeline in an early version of Splight’s platform.
