Welcome to Mapeda
MAPEDA is a company that develops then markets products and services based on its patented DisponiBox® technology. These tools help their users to make decisions and save resources (battery, wear and tear,...).
By replacing the user at the center of his decisions, we make him free to make his choices. The energy savings achieved thanks to VeQa make it possible to fight against the programmed obsolescence of your devices. Our approach is therefore based on an ethical and ecological approach.
Until now our DisponiBox® technology has been used for projects such as intelligent buildings or for a specific
public such as helping to maintain patients' health. To make our technology accessible to all, we want to develop VeQa, dedicated to the
users of smartphones and tablets.
Other versions dedicated to the management of emergency situations are under study, in order to increase the user's resilience: VeQa-R
which works in case of critical situation or VeQa-E which allows to improve the energy consumption.
VeQa, our tech
Did you know that all the products and services you use have a certain level of hidden quality ? However, this data is generally known by suppliers and manufacturers.
Our VEQA solution makes this quality visible by measuring its level in real time. VEQA advises users how to keep this quality at the highest possible level and avoid problems.
The DisponiBox® technology is an expert system, a branch of Artificial Intelligence AI, aimed at user comfort with resource savings, therefore sustainable development. MAPEDA's technology introduces predictive maintenance at the level of products and services in addition to advice to optimize their use and to manage breakdown situations.
The objectives of VEQA (Visible Eco Quality Apps) are to maintain user comfort and reduce resource consumption (extending equipment life, energy consumption, lost time, etc.).
A new version of VeQa intended to combat pandemics VeQa-P is in under development aiming at local vision and advice in addition to centralized applications such as French AntiCovid or Conseils Covid. Another version is being studied to improve the Resilience in cases of natural disasters or major breakdowns called VeQa-R.
The project
VEQA is designed for smartphone and tablet users to help them optimize the use of their equipment. It measures product capabilities and the quality of telecommunications services.
It will cover :
Monitoring of the following services :
- Internet access for video, navigation and messaging
- Voice communication capabilities
- Fast delivery of small messages such as SMS and MMS
How your equipment works :
- The battery
- The operating speed
- Hardware/software configuration
- Connectivity with external devices
VeQa benefits
Indicates the possibilities of your device and your network BEFORE USAGE
Saves you time and energy by avoiding unsuccessful attempts (fruitless trials)
Preserves your comfort of use through support and assistance
Helps to expand your device’s life expectancy by acting against its obsolescence (memory, battery, connectors,…)
Saves energy by controlling the real capacity of your device
Principle of operation
Manufacturers shall provide their consumers with general information on components. They do not monitor them, and do not provide alerts regarding their use, component wear and tear or potential failure. VEQA will monitor the identified components to inform the user of their proper operation and provide advice in the event of failure.
Exemple – use of the product :
I have to charge my phone every night. I get angry, I think the battery is defective and I will still have to change my device. VEQA informs me that the state of wear of my battery is 65% (quite acceptable) and that the problem does not come from there but probably from an energy consuming application running in the background. I can solve my problem calmly.
Exemple – service usage :
The network icon is grey. I think I can’t make my phone call so VEQA only informs me that yes, I can.

Une nouvelle version de VeQa, destinée à contribuer à la lutte des Pandémies, VeQa-P, est en développement. Elle vise la vision et les conseils locaux en complément aux applications centralisées comme AntiCovid ou Conseils Covid. Une autre version est en étude pour améliorer la Résilience dans des cas de catastrophes naturelles ou pannes majeures nommée VeQa-R. :
Our technology
DisponiBox®
VeQa is the adaptation for mobile devices of DisponiBox® technology
According to the usual definition, "availability" is a measure of capacity for an operation. It corresponds to the period in which the observed system operates well in proportion to the whole time of operation. We use the concept of availability more precisely to describe the time of operation in optimal conditions of usage and resource consumption.
The DisponiBox® technology measures availability in real time by comparing the observed values of selected parameters with the characteristical values of reference for the system concerned. We propose a quality measure based on the standard availability of products and services in order to make their quality more transparent for users.

applications
DisponiBox® technology can be adapted to specific domains
DisponiDom™
Complement to a centralized management of intelligent buildings and domotics
DisponiTel™
Supports and improves the quality of Telecoms and IT
DisponiTrans™
Supports and improves the quality of transport of persons and goods

pilot project
Experiment
Convention with ICAM to experiment the technologies based on DisponiBox®
We compare the premises energy consumption and users confort: with DisponiDom™ & DisponiTel™ and without. The experiment is realized in partnership with ICAM (INSTITUT CATHOLIQUE DES ARTS ET METIERS) Paris Sénart, to obtain feedback from users and to evaluate the reduction of consumption and the maintenance costs.
Expected Results: 5 to 15 % less resources consumed
Process
1. Analyzing
the needs to adapt the service to the product
2. Testing
le produit et l’intelligence décisionnelle dans un environnement client
3. Validating
the hypothesis of profits return from investments
4. Product's interactivity
on the user’s experience to enhance the product interactivity
Participants
Who is this technology tailored for?
- Those responsible for technical services and maintenance of equipment
- Technical managers of a building
- End users of an accommodation (DisponiDom™) and IT systems (DisponiTel™)
What needs does DisponiBox® technology meet?
- Anticipatory maintenance of the technical environment of the user
- Optimization of the local environment of the user

Our team
Our mission
The DisponiBox® technology measures availability in real time by comparing the observed values of selected parameters with the characteristical values of reference for the system concerned. We propose a quality measure based on the standard availability of products and services in order to make their quality more transparent for users.
The objective of MAPEDA is to support constructors and suppliers in improving the quality of their products and/or services to make them more reliable and efficient.
Optimized consumption of resources can be achieved by real-time measuring of essential parameters from the user's point of view. By positioning the user as the decision-maker, MAPEDA improves the quality of life of the users through digital technologies and according to ethical principles. We create activities, work, and resources instead of replacing humans by more and more sophisticated machines. It means to create the activities, the work, the resources economy and not to replace the humans by more and more sophisticated machines.
MAPEDA favors an ecological perspective towards waste diminution and a sustainable economy, which keeps the user at the core of its objectives and bears into account the social responsibility.
