About Actcast
Actcast is an edge-AI IoT platform service that links events and data from the physical world to the Web by performing deep learning inference on edge devices, enabling real-time sensing, analysis, and integration of physical data with online systems while reducing data transfer costs and privacy risks. It uses edge computing to run deep learning models locally on low-cost hardware such as Raspberry Pi, converting raw sensor and camera input into actionable, semantic data that can be sent to web services or applications. It supports deployment, remote management, and monitoring of IoT applications (“Acts”) across many devices, and provides tools such as an SDK and command-line interface to develop, package, and deploy applications in Docker containers that process input and send summarized results. Actcast also includes features for managing device groups, configuring triggers and webhooks to notify events, and handling updates and device status from a centralized dashboard.

Embiot
Embiot® is a compact, high performance IoT analytics software agent for IoT gateway and smart sensor applications. This edge computing application is small enough to integrate directly into devices, smart sensors and gateways, but powerful enough to calculate complex analytics from large amounts of raw data at high speed. Internally, Embiot uses a stream processing model to enable it to handle sensor data that arrives at different rates and out of order. It has a simple intuitive configuration language and a rich set of math, stats and AI functions making it fast and easy to solve your analytics problems. Embiot supports a range of input methods including MODBUS, MQTT, REST/XML, REST/JSON, Name/Value and CSV. Embiot is able to send output reports to multiple destinations concurrently in REST, MQTT and custom text formats. For security, Embiot supports TLS selectively on any input or output stream, HTTP and MQTT authentication.

Node-RED
Node-RED is a programming tool for wiring together hardware devices, APIs and online services in new and interesting ways. It provides a browser-based editor that makes it easy to wire together flows using the wide range of nodes in the palette that can be deployed to its runtime in a single-click. Node-RED provides a browser-based flow editor that makes it easy to wire together flows using the wide range of nodes in the palette. Flows can be then deployed to the runtime in a single-click. JavaScript functions can be created within the editor using a rich text editor. A built-in library allows you to save useful functions, templates or flows for re-use. The light-weight runtime is built on Node.js, taking full advantage of its event-driven, non-blocking model. This makes it ideal to run at the edge of the network on low-cost hardware such as the Raspberry Pi as well as in the cloud.

Gravio
Gravio enables new ways to connect and interact with your environment through the power of IoT, sensors, edge computing, computer vision, and AI without programming knowledge. Gravio is an easy-to-use software platform that runs on Windows, macOS, or Linux. You can connect to various inputs and outputs, including some bundled IoT sensors, computer vision/AI cameras, and MQTT or HTTP APIs. Gravio is very easy to use without software programming knowledge. Gravio unlocks the power of connected technologies by connecting sensors, input devices, cameras, and APIs within a space, then continuously gathering and sharing their information, enabling new ways to interact with, learn from and enhance a physical space. To create these experiences, Gravio provides a powerful low-code/no-code environment to enable entrepreneurs and organizations of all sizes, across industries, to build custom, connected experiences for new and existing environments.
