The management of an artwork's lifecycle - from its delivery to the monitoring of its security and environmental
safety - today depends upon fundamentally manual activities.
In contrast JeriTech, thanks to breakthrough software technology, integrates multiple sensors, actuators and devices
to dramatically increase automation of artworks exhibitions' management and monitoring.
Thanks to pervasive tools such as Motorola Enterprise Class Mobile Computers, JeriTech solutions eliminate delays
in security guards' reactivity. For example, all guards carrying mobile computers within an exhibition area monitored
by sensors will receive instant alerts reporting detected anomalies. The alert messages will contain all information
needed for an immediate reaction, thus avoiding the need for radio communications, which can introduce delays and mistakes
in responding to danger.
In contrast with other security systems, which need reingeneering to adopt new devices, WL BOSS - the Event Driven Application
Platform powering JeriTech solutions - enables quick adoption of any kind of sensor, actuator or tool, such as e.g.
sensors monitoring humidity, temperature, motion, proximity; actuators closing doors, tilting CCTV cameras; new generation
mobile phones, etc.
JeriTech Innovation
In fact, though new wireless sensor networks can monitor a variety of parameters with ever greater precision and resolution,
such connectivity and granularity are not matched by current software tools' capabilities, as they suffer from two main
limitations:
they have been developed with a 'silos' approach, i.e. each single type of sensor is managed vertically
and separately from all others. Correlating the various parameters monitored - each available via a separate interface -
is the user's responsibility
they do not provide automated reactivity to anomalies - it is the user's responsibility to observe parameter's
variations and decide upon the appropriate course of action
JeriTech Automates the Artworks Lifecycle
JeriTech objective is to automate an artwork's entire lifecycle - from its delivery to the exhbition site to the control
of environmental and security conditions, to the real time monitoring of visitors location and number - instantly
identifying anomalies or potential dangers and providing immediate, precise responsiveness.
JeriTech achieves this objective thanks to a unified vision over the entire network of wireless sensors monitoring
artworks safety & security, where correlations between different parameters are automatically analysed and each anomaly
immediately triggers an automated reaction, localised where needed. Such reaction can be the activation of an external
tool (e.g. CCTV) and/or the sending of alert messages over pervasive supports such as mobile computers and mobile phones.
In addition, JeriTech solutions provide real time visibility over artworks' safety & security to all stakeholders
involved in their lifecycle - security personnel and management, exhibitors, owners, lenders, collectors.
JeriTech increases the overall quality of Safety & Security services, reducing exhibition management costs and
increasing their security levels, with consequent reduction in insurance premiums and increase in collectors and
lenders' confidence.
