Analytics and cloud-based solutions
OneEvent’s cloud-based learning and analytics engine utilises a series of sensing devices integrated with a cellular gateway. Sensors measure a variety of environmental data including smoke, temperature, carbon monoxide, humidity, water, motion and more. This smart technology learns what is normal for a building or home and transmits alerts about potential risks through its app to a cell phone or other device. OneEvent’s Internet of things (IOT) technology also enables users to benefit from the robust volume of data collected
In addition to its risk alert capabilities, OneEvent’s Internet of things (IOT) technology also enables users to benefit from the robust volume of data collected. OneEvent’s proprietary analytics and artificial intelligence can empower users to organise and analyse the data in innovative ways to enhance business intelligence and in turn, efficiency. No other environmental monitoring system provides this level of analysis, benefit and value.
