Focus Universal Secures International Certifications for Universal Smart IoT Devices

Focus Universal Inc. (Nasdaq: FCUV) has announced that its Universal Smart Device and associated sensors have successfully completed certification by accredited laboratories GRG Metrology & Test Group Co., Ltd. and Centre Testing International Group Co., Ltd. The certified products include the universal smart device, pH sensor, total dissolved solids (TDS) sensor, oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) sensor, total dissolved oxygen sensor, and turbidity sensors. These certifications, issued by laboratories with international credibility, are expected to facilitate the company's expansion into both local and global markets.

The Internet of Things (IoT) has long been touted as a transformative technology, but its widespread adoption has been hindered by high research and development costs, technical complexity, and prolonged development cycles. Focus Universal's Universal Smart IoT platform aims to address these challenges by providing a common foundation for engineers, potentially eliminating up to 90% of the hardware and software development typically required. The company's goal has been to make IoT as simple and cost-effective as traditional standalone devices while offering full IoT capabilities. Achieving this required over 20 years of development, not only to establish the platform but also to develop compatible industrial sensors and demonstrate practicality, scalability, and commercial viability.

According to Dr. Desheng Wang, CEO of Focus Universal, the completion of the certification process is a significant milestone. It removes a key commercialization barrier and allows the company to transition from technology development to broader market deployment. He stated, "Obtaining the required certifications for our Universal Smart IoT devices and industrial sensors removes a major barrier to commercialization and enables us to market our products domestically and globally."

The IoT market is poised for substantial growth. Statista projects that the number of IoT devices worldwide will increase from 19.8 billion in 2025 to over 40.6 billion by 2034. The global IoT market, valued at USD 1.18 trillion in 2023, is expected to reach USD 2.65 trillion by 2030, reflecting a compound annual growth rate of 11.4%. Despite this potential, industry surveys indicate that most IoT projects fail, with Cisco reporting a 75% failure rate and Microsoft finding that 30% of projects fail at the proof-of-concept stage. Focus Universal's technology was specifically developed to address these challenges and accelerate IoT adoption globally.

By delivering up to 90% cost savings and simplifying IoT deployment, Focus Universal aims to unlock the full potential of the IoT revolution and serve the growing base of IoT device users. The company's patented technologies, which include 26 patents and patents pending, are designed to reduce costs, development timelines, and energy usage while enhancing range, speed, efficiency, and security. With these certifications, Focus Universal is well-positioned to bring its solutions to the international market and contribute to the expansion of IoT adoption worldwide.
