Low-cost, IoT-enabled vibration monitoring system
ShakeSense is a device that measures, processes, and wirelessly transmits vibration data. The ShakeSense system can be used to monitor, manage, and mitigate risk of damage due to vibrations. The ShakeSense system combines low-cost, small form factor sensors and wireless cloud connectivity to measure the effects of vibrations from construction, mining, and more.
ShakeSense easily attaches to homes, buildings or other structures to monitor vibrations sustained from construction or other factors – wirelessly transmitting data and tracking it to provide a solid understanding of the situation.
Vibration monitoring is currently exceedingly expensive. Owning and renting equipment to monitor vibrations routinely costs tens of thousands of dollars. Hiring consultants qualified to interpret the measured vibration data only adds to the already expensive equipment cost. As a result, vibration monitoring is often NOT conducted when it should be.
The cost of vibration monitoring equipment prevents widespread monitoring of vibration to property surrounding a construction site or mine. The low cost of ShakeSense allows monitoring to occur at multiple sites surrounding a source of vibration. Therefore, vibration maps can be generated for vibration sources. Furthermore, all locations of potential damage can be monitored rather than a single location.
P4’s ShakeSense system autonomously measures vibrations, capturing data in real-time, as well as aggregating measurements over time for continued analysis. Measure vibration from sources such as:
Building Construction Sites
Road Construction Sites
Mining Sites
Other Applications
Real-time Data
ShakeSense uses a 3-axis, high sensitivity, low noise, low drift, low power accelerometer. The IP68 enclosure makes ShakeSense suitable for outdoor use. Multiple power options are available. Contact P4 for details.
Multiple wireless communication protocols are available: Wi-Fi, LoRa, and cellular. ShakeSense is 5G ready!
ShakeSense is a self-contained, portable device with no maintenance required. The sensor, computer, and electronics come together in one physical unit to form an all-in-one solution.
The ShakeSense dashboard presents measured data in commonly used formats for vibration assessment. Wireless data transmission is secured via state-of-the-art technologies.
