Introduction of the sofia RTLS platform version 7.2 extends
the power of common workflows.
TIMONIUM, Md., June 25,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- AiRISTA, a global leader in real
time location services (RTLS), is proud to announce the
introduction of sofia 7.2, a next-generation RTLS platform ready
for an AI capable IoT world.
Most RTLS vendors can provide track & trace capabilities to
help locate resources in the moment. But AiRISTA's sofia RTLS
platform goes beyond, to facilitate the workflows at heart of
smoothly running operations. With the release of sofia 7.2, AiRISTA
extends workflow flexibility and integration capabilities.
- Asset Descriptions: custom descriptions for assets using
freeform text
- Advanced Asset Management: user definable statuses like "out of
service" are used to trigger workflows
- Intuitive Partner Integrations: simple integration of external
workflow triggers in sofia's Rule Composer via MQTT, API and
HTTP
- Global Search UX: powerful customizable search utility with
advanced filtering
Sofia 7.2 also provides support
for new RTLS devices. To bring a higher ROI to lower value assets,
AiRISTA will introduce BLE-only tags, some even intended to be
disposable. And enhancements to existing infrastructure, like the
G3 gateway, support not only BLE beaconing but can act as a Wi-Fi
gateway to bridge wireless networks while providing a location
anchor point.
Sofia 7.2 also introduces new
temperature monitoring functions for a more comprehensive approach
to regulatory compliance. Maintaining records of the calibration
details and the updated offsets can be challenging. Sofia 7.2 not only centralizes calibration
details like the serial number of the calibration device with each
probe, but sofia automatically adjusts temperature recordings to
reflect the new calibration offset. Moreover, when it's not
sufficient to simply maintain historical temperature logs, sofia
7.2 can require a regular human inspection of online temperature
readings with an affirmation of completion.
To help AiRISTA's customer base migrate from the Vision software
platform, a number of tools have been created to automate the
migration of data to sofia. The migrated data includes base data
(assets, devices, groups, and departments) as well as historical
data (event history, event logs, etc.).
The sofia RTLS platform was redesigned from the ground up for an
AI capable IoT world. At its core is a streaming broker-based
architecture written in the language Go, making it AI friendly and
machine learning ready. Combined with the soon-to-be released Flow
Studio low-code development environment, cascading code modules
combined with condition points create custom workflows that improve
business decisions using external integrations and AI modules. The
architecture will accept AiRISTA's planned AI modules and interface
with third party AI engines.
