Integration and analysis of sensor data (motion, thermal, radar)

Purpose

1.1. Automate real-time integration, aggregation, analysis, and alerting of sensor data streams (motion, thermal, radar) across border areas for security threat detection, automated incident response, and compliance.
1.2. Automator links live sensor data feeds with AI & rule-based analysis to identify unauthorized crossings, suspicious movement, and anomalous temperature zones.
1.3. Automates routing of events to relevant personnel, dashboards, and reporting systems in border guard operations, securing data workflow and enabling automated evidence logs.

Trigger Conditions

2.1. Motion sensor threshold breach (e.g. movement detected where none expected).
2.2. Rapid change in thermal signature or detection of unauthorized heat source.
2.3. Radar anomaly detected or object presence within border-zoned radar coverage.
2.4. System error, device tamper signal, or sensor offline event triggers automated escalation.
