At the NRF 2023: Retail's Big Show, Guy Yehiav, Senior Vice President of SmartSense by Digi, discussed the company's sensing-as-a-service solutions. He stated that SmartSense helps secure product quality by monitoring temperature, humidity, and shelf availability, and that the company secures over two billion dollars of products daily. Yehiav noted that SmartSense has opened its sensor platform to work with competitor sensors, allowing customers to integrate existing devices. He also described a Gateway that connects various sensor protocols and sends data to the cloud via cell towers, which he said reduces cyberattack risks. Yehiav emphasized that the industry trend is moving beyond data collection to turning data into actionable tasks, a practice he said SmartSense has followed for 12 years. He added that the company has been approached by competitors and partners to collaborate on its open platform. Yehiav also highlighted a food probe that connects to Bluetooth devices and uses green and red lights to indicate food temperature compliance.
“We are a SmartSense part of a Digi which is a publicly held company. We have more than thousands of customers securing more than two billion dollars of products every day and we save lives every day.”
“We have the deep pockets of a large company while we continue to innovate because we have customers that allow us to innovate with them.”
“We have a sensing as a service solution where we help secure the quality and any requirement for the state of the products from temperature, humidity, positioning on shelf, availability, etc.”
“People are sitting today on a lot of data; what we are doing is taking all this telemetry type data and creating sense out of it to optimize tasks, secure the product, provide service to customers, and have it on the shelf when it needs to be consumed.”
