1. Remote Collaboration
for Industrial IOT
At-a-Glance
How You Benefit
• Real-time location tracking from a Web
interface.
• Collaboration between central support
organizations and remote operating teams
for knowledge retention and best practice
sharing.
• Intrinsically Safe device (ATEX & IECEx)
rated for use in hazardous areas brings
enterprise applications to the remote
edge.
• Enhanced HSSE by scaling global expert
resources and accelerated decision making
• WiFi canopy deployment enables digital
oilfield strategies and supports the Mobile-
Worker by accessing mission critical data
or reporting vital corporate information
from the field.
• Expedited ROI using voice, video, data and
HSSE collaboration tools over pervasive
wireless networks.
Cisco, Rice Electronics & Davra Networks
team up to bring remote collaboration to
your Industrial and IOT deployments
The Rice Electronics Mobile-Worker solution is a fully integrated
voice, video, RFID, gas sensing, and data analytic engine
specifically developed to enhance operational support in harsh
and remote environments by accessing any expert for any
problem at any time.
Additionally, the Mobile-Worker solution enhances operational
support & safety by providing man-down capabilities, access to
workflow applications such as job site authorization and
inspection reporting, provides remote-manager oversight and
support, and overall operational efficiency in highly dangerous
work environments. This solution uses Cisco IPICS , WebEx,
Spark, and Jabber integrated into a Davra Network developed
enablement platform.
Modular design for many applications
The Rice Electronic Mobile-Worker solution supports transient
network technologies (WiFi, 3G, Bluetooth) for flexible rugged
solutions. The Rice Electronics RoughPro Smartphone is Android
based with access to over 700,000 software applications from
Google Play store that can be customized for multiple industrial
applications.
