Linux Tablets, Panels, and IoT Computing at the Edge
The increase of connected equipment and IoT devices has forced Industry 4.0 to grow beyond cloud computing. In order to process the large amounts of data being collected by these devices in real-time, we have turned to Edge computing. Cloud computing has allowed us to offload compute nodes at the expense of bandwidth, but as connected devices increase, latency increases as well. Edge computing relocates the compute nodes closer to the source of data to…
