Continuous sensing
Battery and solar wireless nodes on the structure and in the ground report tilt, pore pressure, earth pressure and temperature at set intervals, day and night.
Structural and geotechnical monitoring
Early warning for retaining walls, slopes and embankments
Sensor-enabled Early Risk Analytics & Intelligence
Serai Tech connects wireless sensors, a monitoring platform and engineering models, so asset owners see how a structure and the ground around it move, and act before movement becomes failure.
Block model of a retaining wall, a slope and an embankment instrumented with wireless tilt and pressure sensors. The 3D view needs WebGL.
Mission
Continuous deformation monitoring
Retaining wall failures follow progressive deformation that inspection at intervals can miss. Serai Tech measures that deformation continuously, maps it across the structure and alerts the people responsible for it.
Solutions
What the platform does
Deflection mapping
A digital twin converts point readings into a deflection map of the structure, with each sensor's history one click away.
Alerts and reporting
Warning and critical thresholds, notifications when a sensor goes silent, and exports for engineering reports.
Technology
Three layers
Sensor layer
MEMS sensors designed in house: tilt, pore pressure, earth pressure and temperature on one node family, linked by long-range low-power radio.
Platform layer
An encrypted data path from each site into a database Serai Tech owns. Customers see their own structures at monitor.seraitech.ai.
Prediction layer
Engineering models of the structure combined with machine learning on its deflection history.
Prediction
Forecasting structure behaviour
Each structure builds a deflection record from the day its sensors go live. Serai Tech trains models on that record, checks them against structural mechanics and uses them to flag a change in behaviour before it reaches an alarm threshold.
The prediction layer is in development.
Applications
Where the sensors go
- Highway retaining walls
- Rail cuttings and embankments
- Dams
- River embankments and dykes
- Excavations and slopes
Why Serai Tech
Advantage
Own sensors
Sensors designed and built by the team keep the cost per point low enough to instrument a whole structure face.
Engineering first
Deflection is reconstructed with structural mechanics and checked against theory, alongside threshold alarms.
Data kept
Every reading is stored for the life of the asset in a database Serai Tech controls, ready for reporting and model training.
