Managing the Fleet of Sensors

Orisun-IoT has been designed to enable the easy development of new IoT applications and then their mass deployment. The platform is open and supports major IoT telecommunication protocols such as LORA, NB-IOT, Sigfox, 2G,3G,4G,5G or logic layers such as MQTT, MODBUS, OPC UA, KNX, http*. Connectors to major market vendors are available off-the-shelf, and the list is regularly extended.

To what sensor fleet management challenges does the Orisun-IoT 3.0 platform respond to?
Sensors & Connectors
Marketplace & Designer
  • Integrate new types of devices.
  • Easily deploy hundreds of devices across multiple sites.
  • Define the security policy adapted to the domain.
  • Easily prototype a new device, format, telecom, digital twin, domain integration.
Provisionning
  • Identify all devices and integrate them into the system in a simple way.
  • Avoid lock'in from a hardware vendor by facilitating interoperability.
  • Optimize the distribution of the hardware to the final customer.
Device life cycle
  • Optimize the setup and end of life of devices.
  • Simplify equipment maintenance: maintain data streams traceability and minimize workload (OT & IT).
  • Hardware and firmware version tracking, integration with remote update management (OTAP).
Deployment monitoring
  • Deployment status dashboard, per: site, customer and domain.
  • Monitoring of device and network health, alerts in case of malfunction.

Capture any type of data sources and formats

Orisun-IoT implements the schema on read approach to managing the received data. First, the received data is stored in the datalake for long term persistance. Then it is processed for use by the digital twins: this decoding and contextualization process takes less than 20 milliseconds and scales easily through a microservice architecture.

What data contextualization issues does the Orisun-IoT 3.0 platform address?
  • collect data from any types of data streams: either directly or via a third-party service,
  • integrate existing devices (legacy) and import existing histories,
  • retain raw data and ensure long-term traceability,
  • decode and interpret various data types (digital, text, geographic, image, sound, video),
  • give context to measured data (size, unit, measurement context, conversions)
  • define schema on read configurations to decode raw data and, assign validity periods ensuring fine grained contextual decoding for each streams of data,
  • keep the history of the applied decoding configurations i.e. dense time versionning.
Human as a Sensor

Focus on the Human as a sensor feature: in many sectors, observations by people are still the most reliable and cost-effective way to collect some key data-features. Digitization facilitates the collections of this type of data eg implementating a participative monitoring. Orisun-IoT supports such an approach through its input forms, observation heterogeneity correction, creation of virtual observatories features. It permits running systematic periodic monitoring with a team of operators (ornithological monitoring, evolution of anomalies in an art book, ...)

Providing business context to the measured data

Orisun-IoT proposes a unique association between our customers' trade and the data collected by connected objects. This association involves modeling and activating our things graph, the network of digital twins that virtually represents the objects and concepts handled on a daily basis.

The technology developed by Orisun is unique in its ability to represent and analyze IoT data over time.

Orisun's things graph and proprietary algorithms exploit not only the current organization of objects, their interactions and relationships, but also past arrangements. Used in foresight, our technology also allows to explore different scenarios of future organization.

What business data contextualization issues does the Orisun-IoT 3.0 platform address?
  • Present data to people within their business context.
  • Ensure that the data presented is instantaneous and up-to-date throughout the company.
  • Simplify the creation of alerts, dashboards and applications.
  • Present data from thousands of sources across hundreds of applications without seeing administration costs explode.
  • Evolve the organization while minimizing IT adaptation costs.
  • Keep a simple and transparent access to the company's history regardless of the transformations.

Digital twins are a data modeling technique that involves endowing real-world entities with a clone in cyber space. The clones dynamically reproduce, thanks to the IoT sensor, the state of machines, objects, buildings, cities.

This type of modeling makes it possible to compose open and scalable cyber-physical systems at low cost.

As far back as 2018 Forrester noted that Digital Twins are the most suitable design pattern for deployment at scale (scalability) of the Internet of Things.

Our team has been working since 2014 to develop such an architecture. With its Digital Twins, Orisun-IoT is able to simplify the connection of a fleet of several thousand sensors to several hundred business applications. The implementation of our platform dramatically eases the work of adapting IT and then maintaining it later

Develop a model adapted to each business or import a pre-existing model.

  • Entity Editor: Orisun is a member of the Digital Twin consortium and supports all major digital twin exchange formats. Each entity of a business domain can be modeled in the platform thanks to our editor. This allows, for each type of entity, to describe its properties, states and how they can evolve.
  • Ontology design and import: Beyond modeling digital twins, the platform is able to model complete business domains by making explicit the possible relationships between the different entities. For this, each customer can either model their domain themselves or rely on existing standard modeling (RDFS & OWL ontologies, UML formalisms, openEHR, Industry 4.0 Alliance Shell administration)

Data processing

Orisun-IoT has a native dashboard designer, forms and alerts that allow for direct interaction on the platform as well as a set of third-party tools that have been integrated for data exploitation.

In addition, Orisun provides APIs and a complete framework to build custom applications and bring them to market. The framework allows for material design web interfaces.

Connectors to the main visualization and supervision systems ERP, MES, CMMS are available. New connectors are regularly added to this list to meet our customers' needs and technological advances.
