Condor's Truely Global Reach
|
The Condor iBotSense Field Node (iFN) is a true IoT device
|
At Enablinx Safety Systems we believe the Internet of Things (IoT) and related technologies
(see sidebar) will be the key to a whole new future of virtual reality and remote sensing.
Almost anything can now become an iOT enabled device with the addition of a
number of new technologies that have only recently become widely available including:
- Easily programmable low-power microprocessors
- Detectors capable of "sensing" the real world
- Multiple comm options for remote device control
With the addition of Satellite enabled IoT communications capabilities, we believe our technology
has taken IoT lightyears into the future, allowing us to build one of the world's most advanced mobile monitoring networks.

iBotSense Field Node Technology
The CondorFSM iBotSense Remote Sensor Node is the first in a line of iBotSense Nodes we are building to address the need for advanced tracking of airplanes, trucks and other carriers.
Each node is a fully self-contained, tamperproof and autonomous mobile sensor
platform designed to provide a multi-sensoral remote presence in the event of an
emergency. In addition to our standard sensor package, which includes
positional, barometric and GPS sensing we also offer:
- Environmental sensors (temperature, moisture, wind, etc)
- Biometric sensors (heart rate, resperation, temperature, etc)
- Intrusion sensors (video motion detection, power failure, etc)
New sensors are being developed continuously and thanks to our software can be
integrated without changes to existing hardware already deployed in the field. No matter the sensor, Condor software continuously analyzes incoming data to create a mathematical model of
a vehicle and the space around it. When configurable parameters are exceed,
the iFN unit will signal an alarm condition through our cloud based Condor
Communications Network. To learn more about our Condor
Communications Network please see the Solutions page.
Condor iFN Intelligent Analytics
To maximize the effectiveness of our iBotSense Field Node(iFN) hardware, we have developed our
Condor Intelligent Analytics Software package, a real-time data analysis engine that
continuously receives and interprets data from the various independent sensors
attached to the iFN. Fully configurable detectors continuously analyize
sensor data and sound an alarm in the event of danger. Our current detectors support
a host of features including:
- Remote Accessability through Wifi (local), GSM (terrestrial), Satellite
(airborne)
- Completely configurable in the Field through the Condor Cloud.
- Securely accessible from any device (PC/Mac, Phone, Tablet)
Utilizing the graphical software tools we provide, it is a simple task to fine tune detection parameters
on a trip by trip basis. When any enabled detector is triggered, the Condor
iFN will initially signal an alarm condition to ground control personnel for
investigation. If the alarm condition persists, the iFN software will then begin sending
detailed position data critical to locating the vehicle in time to intervene.

The Internet of Things (IoT)
|
The Internet of Things (IoT) is the network of physical objects or "things"
embedded with electronics, software, sensors, and network connectivity, which
enables these objects to collect and exchange data.
|
|
Sensors are at the the heart of the Internet of Things (IoT)
|
The Internet of Things allows
objects to be sensed and controlled remotely across existing network
infrastructure, creating opportunities for more direct integration between the
physical world and computer-based systems, and resulting in improved efficiency,
accuracy and economic benefit; when IoT is augmented with sensors and actuators,
the technology becomes an instance of the more general class of cyber-physical
systems, which also encompasses technologies such as smart grids, smart homes,
intelligent transportation and smart cities. Each thing is uniquely identifiable
through its embedded computing system but is able to interoperate within the
existing Internet infrastructure. Experts estimate that the IoT will consist of
almost 50 billion objects by 2020. - Wikipedia
