Hi-G-Tek’s turn-key solutions are composed of active RFID tags, sensors, readers and the ESP. The ESP receives, analyzes, and stores all the information collected by the sensors and readers. It applies the client’s business rules to the data, generating real time alerts where appropriate, and storing data history. The effect has a significant benefit for improving operational efficiency and regulatory compliance. Sensing and security are key components of the technology. The tags are able to monitor and record critical conditions and relay the information back to the client via Hi-G-Tek’s ESP (Enterprise Services Platform). Sensing data can include: security, motion, tilt, temperature, humidity, purity, clarity, light, acoustics, weight, flow, shock, vibration, and others. Hi-G-Tek’s locking devices provide a unique combination of physical protection with sensing and monitoring capabilities. Wirelessly connected to a network, they facilitate real time alerts to our clients in cases of tampering, creating actionable data for improved security and management. The flexibility of the technology platform enables Hi-G-Tek to rapidly develop and deploy solutions, and quickly respond to changes in customer's business environment. This platform is the foundation for a suite of turn-key solutions that enables clients across vertical markets to secure and manage their assets and ultimately improve the efficiency of their business operations.
