Benefits of Edge processing
- Confidentiality: data is not sent to the cloud and is locally stored on the device or the equipment
- Cost reduction: latency and throughput of high-volume time-series asset data is significantly optimized. Reducing the amount of useless machine data sent and stored in the cloud leads to significant benefits, as it enables real-time distributed applications and eliminates the need for complex systems
- Lower latency: minimal delay in the repair of equipment is essential for assets which are mission-critical.
AI ecosystem for STM32 MCUs and MPUs
To easily implement Predictive Maintenance algorithms on MCU and MPU edge devices, STM32 Tools were enriched with the STM32Cube. AI ecosystem, extending STM32CubeMX software capabilities with the automatic conversion of pre-trained Neural Networks. STM32Cube.
