Just weeks before Thanksgiving, disaster struck for a nationwide turkey supplier: A freezer-related fire destroyed nearly 100 frozen turkeys prepared for shipping. After that catastrophe, the company wanted to ensure it would never happen again.

The turkey provider switched from manual facility monitoring methods to an AI-powered Internet of Things (AIoT) solution in our portfolio to prevent future fires. This included industrial-grade IoT temperature sensors, instant alerts if the sensors stopped transmitting, and 30-day data logs kept for analysis.

With a dedicated wireless and battery-powered smart sensor recording each freezer coil’s temperature every 60 seconds, the company ensures that their staff will know immediately via mass notification if temps rise beyond the normal range.

That’s one example of how AIoT can transform operations. If you want to make your environment smarter, safer and more efficient, here’s why you should consider an AI-powered IoT solution.

AI Internet of Things: Key capabilities and benefits

A network of IoT devices powered by artificial intelligence can automate managing and monitoring physical assets and multiple locations. AIoT sensors and cameras can perform various functions to optimize operations, including the following:

  • Tracking environmental conditions (e.g., temperature, humidity, and moisture)

  • Monitoring occupancy

  • Assessing power and tank levels

  • Checking for perimeter intrusions (e.g., open doors and breached fences)

  • Tracking license plates

  • Identifying issues like illegal dumping and fires

These AI-powered IoT devices are supported by affordable and reliable wireless connectivity. Deploying AIoT can benefit your business in the following ways:

  • Saving your staff time and money by automating mundane tasks

  • Increasing productivity

  • Enhancing security

  • Containing costs by identifying issues and predicting future problems

  • Supporting strategic decision-making with analysis of historical data
