The Smart-Data Approach
Break Free from Big Data Overload
Empowering the transition from Big Data to Smart-Data infrastructure
Gone are the days of attempting to capture everything, drowning in terabytes of data per hour per smart system. Our approach recognizes that a brute force strategy is no longer sustainable – important edge cases are often lost amidst the noise. So, the question arises: how can we automatically collect the data that truly matters in situations worth our focus to further improve autonomous systems? Our answer is Smart-Data, a curated collection of rich data relevant to situations of interest, tagged for searchability. It’s lightweight, available in near real-time, easier to process, and share.
How it works
1. Onboarding
Developers use the Heex SDK to create custom monitors and recorders tailored to their specific needs. This flexibility allows for precise data collection tailored to unique scenarios.
2. Ecosystem Integration
Thanks to standard data formats and robust APIs, integrating Heex Smart-Data with your existing ecosystem is straightforward. This ensures compatibility with various tools and platforms used for further data processing and analysis.
3. Deployment
Heex agents can be deployed across diverse environments: Autonomous Vehicles and Edge Devices: For real-time Smart-Data capture, Heex agents are deployed within autonomous vehicles, robots, and other edge devices. Back-end Systems: For historical data analysis, Heex agents capture data from replays or re-simulations in cloud or on-premises environments.
4. Data Collection and OTA
Once the data is collected by Heex agents, it is stored in your preferred location—whether in the cloud, or on-premises. The metadata is sent to the Heex Cloud for analysis and processing. Heex Cloud also hosts over-the-air (OTA) management of Heex agents.
Key Capabilities
Edge & Real-time Capture
Imagine capturing only the specific data you need, at the source, and in real-time. Heex makes this possible by harnessing edge computing to capture meaningful data directly from your autonomous systems or vehicles. Think sensor readings, camera footage, LIDAR scans – anything crucial for your development, supervision or reporting needs.
Server Side Data Replay
Proactively identify and capture data that truly matters or intelligently mine your historical data, sifting and prioritizing critical moments.
Flexible & Secure Infrastructure Management
Deploy the solution as a Software as a Service or On-premise. Our platform ensures robust data protection through secure transmission and storage, while maintaining the adaptability needed to scale with the evolving needs of AI and autonomous systems. This enables organizations to manage their data with confidence, security, and efficiency.
Unique Over-The-Air Technology & Data Analytics
Skip manual reporting—instantly visualize event statistics. Quickly spot trends and take action. The Analysis of your data allows you to adapt and quickly update your event conditions.
For SMBs and Entreprise
Scalability
Heex software agents seamlessly collect data from within robots, integrating effortlessly with any robotic control system.
Security
Heex uses OAuth 2.0 for logins, JWT for API authentication, and HTTPS (TLS) for agent-to-cloud communication. This multi-layered approach safeguards our platform against common vulnerabilities.
Modularity
Our highly adaptable software agent framework and SDK supports an unlimited number of deployments across your autonomous fleet. The system's abstraction layers allow for effortless customization, with infinite combinations of triggers and conditions that can be reprogrammed over-the-air directly from the centralized Platform.
