What Kaasa solution does

Kaasa solution GmbH is a Düsseldorf-based German software and creative agency founded in 2001, operating as a private GmbH under Managing Director Nico Kaartinen. The company designs and develops mobile applications, Unity-based plugins, and virtual reality experiences, with a technical core centered on sensor integration (primarily the Movesense open sensor platform from Finland) and cross-platform tools for iBeacon, BLE 4.0 heart rate, and Kinect. Its product portfolio includes the Data Collector multi-sensor logging suite, WheelSpeed (training app for elite wheelchair racing), Shooting Star (golf swing kinematic analysis), Kick/Box Trainer (consumer boxing app on the iOS App Store), iBeacon and Heart Rate Unity plugins, VR-Massagesitz (IFA 2016 prototype with Medisana), and VR-Lagerhallen (VR warehouse planning demo at Logimat 2018). A long-running SMS-based Car Tracking notification system serves over 600 automotive dealerships.

The company's revenue is generated through three streams: B2B custom software development and VR projects for enterprise clients, direct-to-consumer sales of mobile apps through the Apple App Store, and participation in EU- and BMBF-funded research consortia focused on elderly care and active healthy aging (MobiAssist, My-AHA, iStoppFalls, Fosible). Customer segments span sports and fitness (primary), healthcare and elderly care, automotive dealerships, and enterprise VR buyers. Go-to-market relies on trade show presence (IFA, Logimat), a website portfolio, and app store distribution rather than outbound sales or content marketing. The company operates only in Germany/Europe, has no disclosed institutional investors or parent company, and provides no public pricing or financial information.

Core offering

Kaasa solution GmbH is a D\u00fcsseldorf-based creative agency that develops and sells sensor-based mobile applications, Unity plugins, and VR experiences built around the Movesense open sensor platform. The company combines custom B2B software development with consumer app distribution via the App Store and participation in EU/BMBF-funded research projects for elderly care. Its portfolio spans sports performance (WheelSpeed, Shooting Star, Kick/Box Trainer), data collection tooling (Data Collector), beacon and heart rate Unity plugins, VR applications (warehouse planning, massage chair), and an SMS-based car dealership tracking system.

Product overview

Kaasa solution GmbH is a Düsseldorf-based creative agency specializing in technology development, particularly sensor integration and mobile/virtual reality applications. Their portfolio consists of two main pillars: (1) Sensor-based solutions built around the Movesense open platform, including the Data Collector software, WheelSpeed athletic training app, Shooting Star golf analysis tool, and Kick/Box Trainer app; and (2) Unity plugin products including iBeacon and Heart Rate plugins for cross-platform game/app development. The company also develops VR experiences (VR warehouse planning, VR massage chair demos) and maintains several EU/BMBF-funded research projects focused on elderly care: MobiAssist (dementia support), My-AHA (healthy aging), iStoppFalls (fall prevention), and Fosible (social isolation). Additionally, they offer an SMS-based Car Tracking system for automotive dealerships. The technology stack centers on Unity for cross-platform development and Microsoft Kinect for health-focused 3D applications.
