It is compatible with different types of sensors and databases, making it an ideal, adjustable solution for any city, irrespective of how far along they are on their smart city journey.įrost & Sullivan Best Practices awards recognize companies that have exhibited exemplary achievements in strategies and processes. OCTOPUS Systems’s new smart city platform integrates with more than 350 infrastructure, safety, security, and communications systems. The OCTOPUS Platform also communicates with essential staff in the city, such as first responders, and processes information about criminal acts, cyber-attacks, weather events, and terrorism. The system will identify, for example, when components need updating, a light bulb needs switching or something malfunctions. Its interesting to think how smart they would be if they werent so limited by their life cycle. This limits how much they can learn, especially from each other, and reduces pressure on them to develop more complex social interactions. Furthermore, through operationalizing Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology, the system reduces human error and manpower redundancy. Octopus are at a significant disadvantage because they have very short lifespans and arent social. 'We investigated four species, including one deep-sea octopus, one solitary nocturnal species and two different reef dwellers active during daylight. The platform enables cities to drastically improve efficiency, safety, and security, leading to a smaller carbon footprint and reduced operational expenditures. 'The octopus is a master of camouflage, capable of solving complex tasks and their cognitive ability is said to approach that of some small mammals,' Dr. This technology is now the foundation for a new smart city solution. The OCTOPUS command and control system integrates many different systems into one brain. Given the abundant neurons in an octopus a whopping 500 million individual personalities and anecdotes of octopuses playing, its easy to imagine they are smart creatures. OCTOPUS Systems tackles that challenge with its proven command and control system that amalgamates information from various sources, enabling better situational awareness through a convergence of cyber and physical security systems. I'm not making that up, some smart people believe that, google it. “ Innovation is about finding a productive outlet for creativity-for consistently translating ideas into high-quality products that have a profound impact on the customer”.Ĭoordinating conventional systems requires making sense of several different analyses, extending the time needed to produce an adequate response. So smart, that if they as long as humans they would likely take over the world.
