What problem were you trying to solve?
Protecting construction machinery and materials at a bridge construction site in Thuringen, Germany. Remote site without any mains power or Internet connection. Requirement for a simple to install, temporary security solution.
Why did you choose the Reconeyez product?
- The possibility to monitor the site from a distance and, if necessary, to make further system setting adjustments in the Reconeyez cloud without having to visit the site. In addition, the reduction in false alarms through the AI was another important factor in choosing the Reconeyez system.
- Ease of installation of the Reconeyez system and the long battery life, supported by a solar panel to recharge the bridge batteries directly on site without manual intervention.
- Ability to fine tune the device settings from the cloud, for example to reduce tamper sensitivity when large construction machinery was active on site.
- Reduction of costly false alarms on site, with the cloud Artificial Intelligence able to differentiate between people and wildlife, etc.
- Ease of installation.
- Ability to use solar panels for on site charging of the detector and bridge batteries – meaning that site visits could be kept to a minimum.
- Much more cost effective than CCTV.
What measurable benefits have you seen?
- Reduction of false alarms by the AI and a reduction in the number of technician visits to site by fine-tuning the settings of the devices in the cloud. The end customer also likes the ability to be able to log into the cloud and view the maintenance photos that are taken at regular intervals by the cameras.
- Simple and cost effective installation.
- Minimal fuss for us and the client.
- AI has removed the false alarms and the need to send guarding vehicles to a remote site for no reason.
- The installation phase and connection to the monitoring station went very smoothly. Now we can manage the site remotely and fine tune any system parameters from a distance. The solar panels also give us confidence that battery lifetime will mean that only very occasional site visits will be needed.
