Digital Twin

Senfi's Digital Twin is the frontend visualization application. Spatial data, sensors data, system data etc. are consolidated on Senfi cloud and output to the Digital Twin for visualization and operation purposes.

3D Model Visualization

Senfi uses a 3D Model replica of the real building for intuitive visualization. Users can not only view the exterior of the building, but also navigate around the interior. Senfi accepts various formats of 3D Model and in the case where Users do not have any 3D models of their building on hand, they can also create simple user-drawn model.

Apart from providing spatial visualization, if a BIM model is being used, Senfi can also display the BIM objects' properties, allowing Users to have access to building objects details, which may assist in facility management uses.

Assets Visualization

Assets in the 3D model are positioned exactly the same way they are positioned in the building in the physical world. Senfi uses 2D placemark icons to mark out every asset in the 3D model. This helps Users to get the idea of how each asset is placed in relative to the others. This is particularly useful in cases where Users need information from assets in the similar location, e.g. break-in detected at a door and security operators need to pull out CCTV footage from nearby CCTVs.

On top of assets positioning, Users can also view the following from the assets:

  • Live data
  • External content such as web links to PDF, online manual etc.
  • Static data such as manufacturer info, date of installation, last date of maintenance etc.

Unified Alarms Panel

In the midst of unifying all sub-systems, Senfi also unifies the alarms across the sub-systems into one unified alarms panel. This reduces the tax on Operators to monitor multiple screens concurrently and look out for alarms in each of the systems, thereby reducing the chances of overlooking any important alarm.

Who Should Be Using the Digital Twin

As Senfi's Digital Twin is a centralized source of information, it can be used by anyone who has the need to monitor, manage or maintain the building and its operations. For example:

  • Operators in the command center
  • Operations Manager
  • Facilities Manager
  • Field operators such as maintenance technicians
  • Security guards
  • Building Owner, etc.
