Safety and Security Use Case
Tracking and monitoring assets can be of absolute importance in a number of situations across a number of industries. Law enforcement, emergency response, hospitals, museums, aerospace and defense, oil and gas, industrial manufacturing,
entertainment, utilities, and others have provided clear evidence of the value of Sensify’s solutions and sensor based technology in ensuring security and enhancing operational efficiency when compared to traditional access control solutions. Below are three broad use cases where benefits have been achieved.
Authentication and Access Control
Authentication can be achieved using biometric sensors in combination with RFID enabled personnel cards enabling full visibility and control of access to restricted areas of operations. Examples include:
- Patient and staff monitoring in a hospital maternity ward
- Identifying authorized personnel for “control room” access in railway stations or airports
- Ensuring that only authorized people are in specific test areas within an engineering test laboratory
- Realtime location (RTLS) of personnel, parts, and equipment to be used in tests
Suitable technology can provide controlled access while the biometric systems are used to determine whether the person holding the badge is authorized to have it. This combination can be essen5al in providing the necessary level of security and
process control in some cases.
Personnel Safety and Emergency Response Management
In an emergency or drill, it is critical to quickly inform people and learn who has been evacuated or moved to a safe zone while identifying the remaining personnel. Effective emergency response requires the ability to:
- Quickly identify the last area where an individual or asset was detected
- Associate critical equipment with rescue personnel to ensure support is available at the point of need
- Immediately locate equipment, personnel, contractors and others working in the facility
Sensify has the right technology that will work reliably in this scenario.
Active Monitoring of High Value Assets
When constant visibility of high value assets is needed, “active” monitoring is essential. This requires technology that can facilitate monitoring from a dashboard providing alerts and notifications on a constant basis. Some examples include:
- Monitoring the location and movement of personnel and equipment throughout a facility
- Monitoring the movement of a child, family or group at an amusement park
- Monitoring the movement of high value equipment, assets, paintings or artifacts within a facility
- Monitoring the location and movement of law enforcement personnel and vehicles throughout a city in realtime
- Monitoring of critcal IP within hi-tech or bio-tech labs to protect assets, equipment to prevent theV
Sensify’s AssetTrace Multi-sensor platform provides total realtime visibility of the location, association with other assets, or moment against these critical business rules. While it tracks the assets using multiple sensor technologies, it easily integrates with existing security surveillance systems and ERP environments to initiate realtime actions such as taking pictures or triggering alarms. AssetTrace can truly provide a completely integrated security solution using multiple sensor technologies.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1463988745195{border-top-width: 1px !important;padding-top: 15px !important;border-top-color: #b71521 !important;border-top-style: solid !important;}”]
