Owners of the innovation:
iSENTINEL® – Earthquake Intelligent Protection and Warning Solutions
Acknowledgment: Congratulations on being one of the pioneer innovators who have obtained the IFIA Innovation Standard certificate (IIS).
Following your inquiry for an IIS certification, the jury board evaluated your application according to the criteria. And after the assessment and examinations, your innovation was granted with IFIA Innovation Standard Grade B.
IFIA hopes that by having this certification, you will take an essential step in the commercialization of your innovation. Also, by entering international markets, you can contribute to the realization of the global slogan: Generating wealth through innovative knowledge.
The Summary of Innovation:
The iSentinel team consists of many people with the mission to save the lives of their peers in the event of destructive earthquakes, professionals passionate about human values that can be integrated into artificial intelligence.
They are people who ask questions and seek answers all the time because of their desire and responsibility to protect life, property, buildings, and the smooth running of a business. Moreover, their values are protection, security, freedom, stability, and comfort. They offer personal protection and safety to families, employees, and their property through the use of intelligent seismic protection systems.
Their vision is that by 2030, people in seismic risk areas should have the education, be prepared, have the technical equipment necessary to avoid the risks associated with an earthquake of more than 5.5 Richter and feel safe.
Thus, they began to look at the life of each person, and we support them to perceive it as their own business. The more prepared people are in the face of an earthquake, the fewer victims, the smaller the losses and the recoverable, the more people continue their lives, the business has continuity, and their mission is fulfilled.
This innovation detects earthquake earthquakes anywhere in Romania (Black Sea, Banat, Vrancea) and its surroundings (Ukraine, Bulgaria, Turkey).
Moreover, iSentinel alerts you in advance and automatically stops potentially dangerous utilities (gas, water, electricity, oxygen, conveyor belts, production equipment, etc.), being able to automatically turn on other protection systems (audible warning, generators, bringing the elevator to the ground floor, etc.).
Why is this innovation eligible to receive the IIS certification?
This innovation reacts instantly to the detection of the warning wave (P) of a major earthquake by a few seconds to a few tens of seconds, depending on the distance between the epicenter and the user.
Also, it monitors the interior of the building or the protected area and announces accidental gas losses, the presence of smoke, and water. It even in the absence of an earthquake. Moreover, it also works during accidental power outages for up to 15 days.
The warning part announces both the main earthquake and its aftershocks. The protection part acts decisively at the main earthquake so that the subsequent aftershocks find the protection already activated.
Moreover, since saving lives of more people is the ultimate goal of this team, obtaining the IFIA Innovation Standard certificate would help this innovation to expand its horizons from Romania to the whole world and save more people.
