The VANTIQ app provides efficient mobile collaborations between people and automation systems through the delivery of notifications to mobile devices. Each notification presents the mobile user with a situation that requires their input or, at least, awareness. No longer does the user have to actively monitor the automation system; critical notifications are delivered in real time as they are detected. Each notification presents a customized page that allows the user to quickly assess the current situation and respond with their decision. Once the response has been formed the app is dismissed and the user is free to return to other activities, allowing optimal utilization of their time. Advanced automation systems are at their best when effectively integrated with the people that provide the “human intelligence” that optimizes the performance of the automation system. The VANTIQ app seamlessly integrates people with the Advanced Automation capabilities of VANTIQ.
