AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Current security seals for utility meters, such as lead seals, are not sufficiently protective against fraud, particularly in high-risk markets where significant gas theft occurs.

Method used

A smart security seal system that encrypts the serial number of a utility meter and prints the encrypted code on the seal, allowing for verification using a smartphone app or database to ensure the seal matches the meter, thereby detecting any tampering or fraud.

Benefits of technology

The smart seal system significantly enhances fraud detection and prevention by ensuring that only authorized seals can be used on utility meters, thereby reducing gas theft and ensuring utilities are compensated for all delivered resources.
