AI On The Edge Device
AI-on-the-edge-device is an edge AI meter digitizer and computer vision image processor designed to convert images of analog and digital utility meters into numeric values. It functions as an IoT gateway that runs neural network inference locally on hardware to monitor water, power, and gas readings.
The system is distinguished by its ability to handle both analog pointers and digital digits through custom-trained neural networks. It includes specialized tools for image alignment, region-of-interest extraction, and hardware-level lighting control to minimize glare on glass surfaces. To maintain performance on edge hardware, the project employs integer-quantized models.
The project covers a broad operational surface, including data processing for reading validation and rollover correction, and a variety of integration methods such as MQTT, REST APIs, and webhooks. It also features comprehensive device management capabilities, including GPIO control, a web-based administration dashboard, and Prometheus metrics exportation for hardware telemetry.
The system supports over-the-air firmware updates and provides a wireless access point for initial network and system configuration.
