Abstract
Methods and apparatuses are described for monitoring usage and adjusting operational characteristics of physical assets. Asset sensors capture temperature data and x-y-z coordinate displacement data associated with a physical asset. A reference sensor captures temperature data of a defined physical area. For each asset sensor, a server computing device monitors the temperature data and the x-y-z coordinate displacement data. The server applies triggers to the temperature data and the displacement data to determine whether a change event occurred. The server records the temperature data and the displacement data when a change event occurred for the physical asset. The server generates instructions comprising a change to: an operational state or an availability of the physical asset. The server transmits the instructions to a remote device associated with the physical asset. The remote device executes the instructions to change: the operational state or the availability of the physical asset.
