IoT Platform for Object Memories & NFC Tagging
IoT Platform for Digital Memories and Object Interaction (International Project)
This innovative IoT platform bridges the gap between physical objects and digital memory. The core idea: our belongings hold deep personal meaning, but their emotional stories are rarely preserved. This solution allows users to attach photos, videos, audio, and text to physical objects or places using QR codes or NFC tags — creating a rich, digital legacy that lives alongside the real item.
What Wollow Delivered
The entire platform was fully developed by Wollow, including:
-
Backend architecture and REST API
-
AWS cloud infrastructure setup and deployment
-
Database modeling and user data security
-
iOS and Android mobile applications
-
UI/UX design for all interfaces
-
Quality assurance, testing, and automation
-
Project management and client coordination
- A dedicated 10-person team from Wollow worked on the project: backend & mobile developers, designers, QA engineers, and a PM.
- The client, based in Australia, engaged a consultant from Accenture, with whom we collaborated closely throughout the development lifecycle.
