Whether you’re wondering just what IoT is, or you simply want to know a little more about ObjectSpectrum and what we can do for you, the FAQ is a great place to start.
Yes. Prism consists of the core services that implement things like the microservice environment that runs the application, and it also includes other services that are used to support the…
Yes. When you talk about asset tracking, that’s a very generic term. One of the built-in capabilities of Prism is the underlying building blocks of asset tracking, which includes things…
Machine learning is a branch of artificial intelligence (AI) and computer science which focuses on the use of data and algorithms to imitate the way that humans learn, gradually improving…
It’s typically a piece of equipment or object that you are trying to remotely monitor. It could be an HVAC system or it could be a field full of corn…
There is some confusion around what people mean when they use the term “no-code” (and also “low-code”). The idea, theoretically, behind no-code is that you do not need to be…
Our standard cloud infrastructure provider is Amazon Web Services. We’ve used them since the beginning, we have experience with them since they started back in 2007, and we like them…
No problem.
No problem. The Prism platform was designed from the ground-up for different languages and for full internationalization – including the same application having multi-language support.
Lucky for you, we have an entire section that addresses this. But just because it isn’t listed there doesn’t mean we wouldn’t or couldn’t do it. We work with IoT,…
It is an IoT solution that either does not connect to a cloud service of any kind or does not need a cloud service in order to function. So, typically…
Device management is the ability to add a device to whatever kind of network or connectivity that device is using to communicate. That process is usually called provisioning. You are…
Think about the “edge” as being the physical location of wherever the IoT solution is happening remotely. So, it’s not where the user is. It’s where the remote thing is….
5G is a collection of technologies that make up the next generation of cellular technology. The two big selling points of 5G are: 1) much higher bandwidth than is typically…
Effectively, it’s a computer model of a physical thing. That model is not like taking a picture of the physical thing, it’s a set of business logic and rules that…
A device that has the only (or primary) job of routing data from one technology to another. So, for example, a LoRaWAN gateway is one that sends and receives messages…
A message broker is a piece of software and the infrastructure that it runs on whose job it is to receive and distribute messages. These messages are data packets, data…
It is what Prism Core and Prism Edge are built on. It uses a software development model where instead of writing one giant program that performs a set of functions,…
A time series database is specifically about being able to store the same information over time and then being able to quickly aggregate that information. This is very common in…
Camera as a Sensor is when you use video input from a camera (which could be visible spectrum or it could be outside the visible spectrum, such as an infrared…
This is a term that you will see spring up here and there, but it is the combination of AI (which is really Machine Learning) and IoT. It’s kind of…
