P3® Edge Intelligence Solutions
Secure, responsive AI that operates directly on embedded hardware—even where connectivity is limited or unavailable.
Barnes Edge Intelligence (BEI) is our end-to-end service for developing artificial intelligence that runs directly on embedded devices. We transform sensors, cameras, controllers and industrial equipment into intelligent endpoints capable of making secure, real-time decisions in the real world.
From the initial use case and AI model to firmware, sensors, IoT hardware and system integration, Barnes Smart Solutions can develop and deliver the complete solution.
Our Edge Intelligence Capabilities
Bespoke AI development
We develop and deploy AI models around your specific operational requirements, environment and data.
P3® Edge Intelligence vision:
- Computer vision and object detection
- Live monitoring and counting solutions
- Realtime WIP tracking
- Optical character recognition
- Anomaly and defect detection
- Audio and vibration analysis
- Environmental and equipment monitoring
Edge optimisation and deployment
AI models are compressed, quantised and optimised to deliver reliable performance on edge hardware with limited processing power, memory and energy consumption.
Our P3® Edge Intelligence core software utilises TFLite, ONNX, TensorRT and more.
Edge hardware and software integration
We select and source suitable edge-processing hardware, cameras and sensors for each project. We then deploy and integrate the AI models with the selected devices and P3® Edge node and P3® Edge Core software
Sensor integration
We combine information from relevant cameras, sensors and industrial equipment to improve accuracy and provide a more complete understanding of the operating environment. These can include:
- Cameras and infrared sensors
- RFID readers
- Vibration and audio sensors
- Temperature and environmental sensors
- Industrial controllers and monitoring equipment
Complete edge solutions
BSSL delivers complete edge-intelligence solutions built around the customer’s use case. This includes sourcing appropriate hardware, configuring edge devices, building and deploying AI models and integrating the solution with communications infrastructure, databases, dashboards and existing business systems.
Why Edge Intelligence?
Edge Intelligence processes data directly on the device instead of continuously sending it to the cloud. This enables faster decisions, stronger privacy and reliable operation in environments where cloud-based AI may be impractical.
Real-time decision-making
Process information and respond within milliseconds, without waiting for data to travel to and from the cloud.
Reliable offline operation
Keep critical systems running even where internet connectivity is slow, intermittent or completely unavailable.
Enhanced privacy and security
Utilising P3® data preparation methodology this is tried and tested in Financial Service environments for 4 decades, sensitive images, biometric information and operational data can remain on the device instead of being transmitted externally.
Lower cloud and bandwidth costs
Reduce the need to stream large volumes of video, audio and sensor data to cloud-based platforms.
Scalable, lightweight deployment
Deploy optimised AI models across low-power embedded devices, industrial equipment and large IoT environments.
