How a Vibration Sensor can benefit your smart solution

Having the Vibration Sensor as a part of your solution opens up various automation possibilities, as this device can be attached to many ordinary items and connect them to your intelligent system. Combined with the Squid.link gateway and the devices from Onics’ white label catalog, it brings a great advantage to your security, insurtech, home care, or energy management solution.

Detect hidden patterns and underlying health conditions

Changes in a person’s routine or irregular sleeping patterns are often indicative of underlying health conditions. By placing the Vibration Sensor under the bed, you enable caretakers and family to monitor a patient’s sleeping patterns to determine irregularities and detect illnesses early-on.

Additionally, attaching this Zigbee sensor to a chair provides an unobtrusive way of keeping track of simple actions such as sitting down for a meal. This addresses the desire for privacy – a common challenge faced by telecare systems, while still sending a sufficient amount of high-quality data to the Squid.link gateway for pattern analyses.

Pay special attention to special belongings

As an insurtech or security solution provider, you can be a step ahead of competitors by providing a device that can be directly attached to a valuable belonging, such as a jewelry case or a rare painting.

The Vibration Sensor can be mounted with double-sided tape to the inside of a particular drawer to make sure no one has tampered with its contents in your customers’ absence. Security providers can set the Vibration Sensor to trigger the Squid.link gateway and alarm the owners, and potentially an Alarm Receiving Center, to a theft in their home.

Identify potential water damage hazards

Water damage is one of the most common and most expensive claims for insurance companies. Frozen or leaking pipes are often detected post-factum when the damage is already done. Attaching a Vibration Sensor to the pipes can help identify blockages, abnormal water pressure, and other issues which can cause a fault in the system. In this way, insurance companies can reduce the claims payouts and customer unhappiness.
