SOME VISIONS ARE
CONCEIVED IN
GARAGES. OURS IN
THE FRONT GARDEN.
UBIRCH takes its name from a digital installation created by company founder Stephan Noller. Stephan attached stars to a birch tree in his front garden that shone in response to tweets sent from all over the world. UBIRCH’s enthusiasm for digital transformation knows no bounds! The tree lights even have their own Twitter account (@sternibirke). When the account name gets mentioned in tweets, the system reacts and the stars momentarily light up.
Once IoT comes out from behind screens and is able to breathe life into everyday things such as a fairy lights - even via social media - IoT data-driven processes will be the growth engine for new and exciting business models for many sectors within the Industry 4.0 environment.
