MINNEAPOLIS - MAMAC Systems, a global manufacturer of industrial and commercial sensors and control peripherals, has announced the purchase of West Virginia-based Redpoint Controls, a company dedicated to embedded Ethernet-based, Web-enabling products. According to MAMAC, the acquisition will allow it to introduce low-cost, Web-monitored sensor technology to small businesses and individual consumers.
"Redpoint's Red-I technology allows our sensors to communicate with end users via standard Internet technology," said S. Asim Gul, founder, president, and CEO of MAMAC Systems. "The cost savings and intuitive monitoring systems that we will be able to offer through this innovation will open up a whole new market for our products. The owner of a small grocery will be able to check everything from the temperature of the meat freezer to the lighting in the parking lot from his/her laptop at home, and make adjustments if needed."
