Edge analytics
Analyze sensor measurements at the device. Local processing supports interpretation close to the monitoring point and helps determine which information is passed to the platform.
On-device AI
Apply AI models locally for a defined monitoring task. The model, inputs and processing requirements are selected for the application and the device's capabilities.
Local autonomy
Execute configured decision logic at the device within defined operating limits. Local functions and behavior during connection loss are specified as part of the deployment.
The configuration specifies the local task, sensor inputs, processing requirements, operating limits and behavior during communication interruptions.
Devices and software
