GPS/accelerometer

To stay informed of everything that happens on your barriers:

Locate your barriers using GPS.
Receive a notification if a barrier is moved and automatically trigger the siren.
Receive an alert if a barrier is hit by a vehicle.

The IMU (inertial measurement unit, i.e. the accelerometer) is capable of differentiating between a displacement and a shock (we therefore make the difference between a displacement of the barrier by an individual and a shock following percussion by a vehicle for example).

The variation in position and movement generates an alert on the administration interface and the smartphone application.

In addition, the variation in GPS position and the variations measured by the IMU can act on the other components: sound the buzzer, light the LEDs, trigger the recording of images by the camera.

Administration website

The barrier administration website allows you to

manage your barriers and
to control the electronic equipment

Manage and control your barriers

View the overall status of your barrier fleet at a glance with the Dashboard:

Location
Active / inactive barriers
List of critical events (battery, shock)

Create groups of barriers to facilitate management:

Create groups of barriers and monitor their status.
Act on all the barriers of a group simultaneously (activate or deactivate, turn on the LEDs, make the buzzer sound, …)

And many other features:

Actions are also possible on an individual barrier in other tabs of the website.
Filters allow you to easily find any barrier, to act on all or part of a group of barriers, or even on all your barriers at once.

Security

Your data is private and secure.

Secure authentication giving access to your customer context.
Double authentication (sms) on first connection.
Data backup.

IT infrastructure

The administration website and smartphone application are built on a secure hosted computing infrastructure.

Your data is private and protected against any attempt of intrusion, destruction or other malicious attacks.

Smartphone application

For even more simplicity and ergonomics, the administration of the barriers and the control of the electronic equipment can also be done through the secure smartphone application.

Smartphone application

The smartphone application offers the same features as the administration website:

Connect to your private space with secure authentication.
Check the overall status in the Dashboard tab.
Check the status of each barrier in the Devices tab.
Assign / De-assign a set of barriers to a group (Groups tab) to facilitate management.
Locate barriers (Locations tab).
Act on the barriers individually or in groups (activate or deactivate barriers, turn on or off the LEDs, make the buzzer sound or stop, etc.).

But you can also unlock the Bluetooth padlocks of the barriers attached to your account.

Embedded electronics

Each barrier is equipped with the following electronic devices

IMU

The GPS position of each barrier is read once a day if there is no change in the position of the barrier. If a movement is detected by the IMU (inertial measurement unit) or by the GPS, the position is then read and transmitted every 30 minutes.

The GPS position readings are available through the administration website or the smartphone application. The GPS positions are kept in the database for 6 months.

The IMU can also detect a possible shock and alert the monitoring center in real time.

LED

The LEDs can be activated:

Via the administration website or the smartphone app (on a single barrier or a group of barriers).
Automatically by the IMU, and/or the camera according to your choices.

You can choose two modes of operation: flashing or static.

Buzzer

The power of the emitted sound is 85 dB.

The buzzer is triggered:

Via the administration interface or the smartphone application (you can trigger the buzzer of a particular barrier or all the buzzers of a group of barriers).
Automatically by the IMU, and/or the camera according to your choices.

Caméra (option)

The camera is the only optional component, i.e. it is not installed by default on all barriers.

Image resolution : SVGA. Recording: 20 images per second maximum.

If the camera is installed on a barrier, it operates in several possible modes :

Triggered mode : the camera is only activated on request via the administration interface or the smartphone application. The images are recorded on an SD card included in the camera module.
Motion detection mode : The camera operates continuously without recording images, but an algorithm analyzes pixel changes and, if necessary, triggers the recording of images on the SD card.
Event-based mode : in addition to the two previous modes, the camera can be configured to trigger image recording when the GPS and/or IMU are activated.

In addition, in motion detection mode, the camera can also act on components : make the buzzer sound, turn on the LEDs.

The recorded images can be retrieved directly on the SD card of the barrier’s internal box, or via Bluetooth (thus without having to dismantle the barrier) via the smartphone application.

Batteries

The batteries are rechargeable, so there is a charging connector (to which the charger is connected) on each barrier. The charge is “intelligent”, the motherboard is indeed programmed with a charge limiter and a system of line isolation for the batteries which would be defective either because of normal wear, or because of extreme climatic conditions (very strong heat for example).

The autonomy of the batteries is variable according to the use. The most consuming components are the LEDs. The real autonomy observed is 144 hours (6 days) by leaving the LEDs activated in permanent flashing.

The administration interface and the smartphone application receive an alert when a barrier needs to be recharged.

iButton

Each barrier is equipped with an iButton. It is used to put the barrier in transport mode (so that it does not send an alert when it is moved) or in normal mode. The iButton works on 1-Wire technology and is activated with a magnetic key.

The activation of the barriers is also possible remotely via the administration interface and the smartphone application.

Bluetooth Lock

Attach the barriers to one another. No keys to lose or combinations to forget. Use your smartphone to open or manage your lock. The 9mm diameter shackle is made of boron alloy, which offers maximum resistance to cutting and sawing.

In addition, this fastening system allows a great modularity to assemble the barriers with one another (angular and vertical modularity), unlike competitive barriers whose fastening systems are rigid.

iButton

An “iButton” each barrier team.

It is used to put the barrier in transport mode (so that it does not send an alert when it is moved) or in normal mode.

The “iButton” works on One Wire technology, on the active with a magnetic key.

NB: You can also activate or deactivate the barriers without the magnetic key, directly from the administration interface.

Embedded electronics in each of our barrier.

Optional, a secure website to manage your barriers, control electronic devices, and receive alerts.

For even more simplicity and ergonomics, the administration of the barriers and the control of the electronic equipment can also be done through the secure smartphone application.

The administration website and the smartphone application are based on a secure IT infrastructure. Your data is private and protected.
