Abstract:
The combination of IoT devices and Edge AI unlocks new possibilities for sustainable remote monitoring of the natural environment as well as human-made infrastructure. This talk will explore the dual aspects of “remote” monitoring: (1) collecting data in geographically remote regions with limited energy and connectivity and (2) using connected IoT systems to gain real-time insights remotely. We can achieve efficient, energy-conscious monitoring solutions by deploying low-power or energy-harvesting sensors and processing data at the edge, close to where it is collected. The discussion will showcase applications ranging from environmental conservation efforts to ensuring the resilience of critical infrastructure, demonstrating the power of these technologies in addressing modern sustainability challenges.
