OBSERO Product Line
Currently in detention facilities, the infrastructure needed to control a lock includes:
• 6 wires per lock for power
• Industrial computers (PLCs) for logic control
• Electromagnetic relays to communicate with the PLCs.
The Smart Lock utilizes Power over Ethernet (PoE) technology as its standard means of power and data communication eliminating the need for multiple wires to each lock. The new Smart Lock utilizes just a single data cable as opposed to 6 cables needed on the current product. This significantly reduces the hardware and software needed for a system, by up to 50%. The PoE connectivity will eliminate the need for industrial computers (PLCs) and electromagnetic relays that are currently used to power and control a lock. This will decrease the overall voltage needed to power a system, by up to 30% which provides an environmental benefit and cost savings to the overall construction and operation of the facility.
Service and maintenance is an ongoing challenge for detention facilities today. Due to limited resources, facilities sparingly are able to perform preventative maintenance on their locks which can lead to premature product failure. One of the critical components of the lock is the motor. The Smart Lock has a temperature sensor that continually monitors the temperature of the motor and will self-diagnose and alert maintenance staff when the motor demonstrates a spike in temperature, which is a precursor to motor and lock failure.
The current lock can only generate 2 to 3 alarms that provides limited monitored feedback of the condition of the lock. The new Smart Lock has the capability of generating over 30 alarms based on the activities and condition of the lock. This feature makes lock maintenance a proactive automated process reducing unsafe physical exposure of service personnel in inmate occupied areas, while continuously providing an audit trail for every activity at the lock enhancing facility operation and security.
The new Smart Lock is developed on Open Network Video Interface Forum (ONVIF), which is the same accepted standard technology utilized by digital camera systems currently. The Smart Lock product line with its Bluetooth technology, makes integration capabilities seamless and intuitive with complementary systems, such as digital cameras, access control, duress alarm products, digital intercoms, inmate tracking, and cell phone detection.
The OBSERO™ brand of Smart Locking Products represents the next generation of Detention Locking System Technology, by enhancing operational efficiencies, safety and security, and reducing overall construction and facility maintenance costs.
