Ascento

Ascento is revolutionizing physical security by deploying autonomous, AI-driven robots to safeguard assets and properties. This next-generation security solution provides a robust, reliable, and cost-effective alternative to traditional security measures. By offering its technology as a comprehensive Robotics-as-a-Service (RaaS) package, Ascento makes advanced security accessible without a large upfront capital investment. The service is designed for a wide range of industries, including logistics, manufacturing, real estate, and critical infrastructure, ensuring constant vigilance and rapid threat detection.

The core of the Ascento system is its all-terrain, all-weather autonomous robot. Engineered to navigate complex outdoor environments, it can operate in rain, snow, or wind, day and night. With over 4 hours of battery life, the robot autonomously patrols designated areas and returns to its station for self-charging, ensuring continuous operation without human intervention. This persistent presence is a significant deterrent to potential intruders and helps maintain a secure perimeter around the clock.

How to use Ascento

Implementing the Ascento security solution is a streamlined, turnkey process designed for rapid deployment and immediate benefits.

1. Consultation and Site Assessment: Begin by contacting Ascento to discuss your specific security requirements. Their team will help assess your premises to determine optimal patrol routes and deployment strategies.
2. Rapid Installation: The Ascento service team handles the complete installation, which can be completed in just a few hours. This includes setting up the autonomous charging stations and configuring the system for your site.
3. Patrol Configuration: Using the secure Ascento mobile app, you can easily configure patrol schedules, define specific checkpoints, and set up custom alert parameters based on your security protocols.
4. Autonomous Operation: Once configured, the Ascento robot operates fully autonomously. It patrols the grounds, performs security checks, and automatically docks to recharge, providing 24/7 coverage.
5. Real-Time Monitoring and Alerts: Security personnel can monitor the robot's live video feed (RGB, thermal, and infrared) at any time through the encrypted app. The AI system automatically detects anomalies—such as unauthorized persons, thermal irregularities, or open doors—and sends instant alerts to your team for immediate action.
6. Integration and Reporting: The system seamlessly integrates with your existing Video Management Systems (VMS). Powerful, AI-leveraged reports are generated to provide insights into security patterns and document all incidents for review and auditing.
