Applications for Wireless Mesh Networks:

Industrial Monitoring

The Sensicast Wireless Sensor Networking Platform provides a cost effective solution for monitoring the state of manufacturing and industrial processes. A WSN supplements existing control facilities by allowing for the measuring of manufacturing properties that with other "legacy" systems that would be cost prohibitive to retrofit into an existing facility.

Examples of using the Sensicast Wireless Network include the monitoring of motor vibration, and temperature for determining whether a machine is running optimally.

Industrial Motor Condition-based Monitoring

Electric motor energy consumption accounts for 23% of all energy use in the United States and 62% of industrial electricity usage. Currently, only the largest, most critical motors are monitored. Leveraging Sensicast's Sensor Networking Platform with the SensiNet™ Networking Protocol for use in industry's typical high multi-path RF environment, it is possible to provide an economic solution for wirelessly monitoring motor operating core temperature - for all classes of motors, creating an enormous opportunity for energy and cost savings.

Building Controls

Wireless Mesh Networks are is ideally suited for retro-fit building control applications. Indoor Air Quality monitoring of gasses such as carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide can lead to better ventilation and greater energy savings. Customers may even ventilate based upon the estimated number of personnel within a building (based on the CO2 levels within specific rooms of the building. Most other building controls can also leverage the power and flexibility of the SensiNet network through simple integration with additional nodes.

Valuable Asset Security

Extending high-value monitoring of assets into institutions of various types, Sensicast's OAS can be used to monitor valuable items that might not be continually "protected", including assets in storage or in inventory, assets in public areas, AV equipment in rooms of universities and colleges and computers.

Perimeter Security

A mesh network supports dry contact sensors (similar to relays - off or on) for the least expensive way to reliably install a perimeter security system. For door and window sensors, PIRs, glassbreak sensors and more, enhancing your existing system or installing a new SensiNet system will provide you the fastest and least expensive way to get the job done.

OEM Products

We can provide OEMs the most reliable radio connectivity through OEM100 and OEM200 modules. OEM modules support the SensiNet™ Networking Protocol, specifically designed for the crowded and harsh radio environments of the real world.

OEMs can be assured of seamless integration with existing building and industrial protocols and systems with Sensicast's SensiMesh Software and Gateways. Combined, they provide the monitoring and maintenance functions for your mesh network.
