Industry Applications & IoT Case Studies

Challenge:
Smartphone detection technology to ensure security in one of the busiest airports in Europe

Solutions:
Libelium’s Meshlium Scanner were used to detect smart devices, measuring people’s movements inside the airport. Six devices were installed across the terminals in order to understand flows, detect and prevent eventual bottlenecks and especially ensure people’s security. The Meshlium Scanner is able to detect any device working with WiFi or Bluetooth interfaces. These devices can be detected without the need of being connected to any specific Access Point, as a result, 90% of individuals where identified.

Challenge:
Detecting volume of visitors and popular locations with Bluetooth and WiFi smartphone detection in a food festival

Solutions:
Each year over 267,000 visitors attend the Bolton Food and Drink Festival. To measure the visitor’s activity Libelium’s Meshlium Scanners were deployed around the festival to create a network covering three key locations. The data collected included, duration of stay, visitor volume per location, visitor volume per day, most popular locations, most popular individual and group routes, total project visitors. This data was then sent back to a central system which allowed for real-time analysis.

Challenge:
Monitoring water quality to improve fish farms productivity, diminishing casualties, and reducing costs and time

Solutions:
Libelium’s Plug & Sense sensors were deployed with the main objective to control water quality in order to increase quality and productivity as well as to reduce costs and increase profits. The sensors recorded the following values, water temperature, dissolved Oxygen, pH levels, Ammonium and Nitrite. The data collected allowed for real-time control over the fish ponds ensuring the utmost efficiency.  The result of deploying the sensors, reduce production costs, saved time, reduced fish fatalities and increased productivity.

Challenge:
Modernize marinas by monitoring mooring berths, measuring the sea level, water quality and observing weather conditions.

Solutions:
A collection of different Libelium Plug & Sense sensors were deployed. These sensors measured the pH levels, Oxidation, sea level, temperature and berth occupation using ultrasound. The data collected can then be viewed on a mobile app providing users with a complete overview of the marina.
