Robert Bosch unveils AIoT platform named as Phantom EdgeRobert Bosch Engineering and Business Solutions (RBEI) today launched an AIoT (Artificial Intelligence of Things) platform called Phantom Edge that delivers real-time electrical energy consumption, operating usage, electrical parameters and appliance-level information.

The AIoT platform (Artificial Intelligence of Things), in which the price was yet to be disclosed, can be utilized for real-time energy monitoring in retail, residential, mobility, healthcare, agriculture and commercial spaces.

It delivers granular energy consumption data at an asset level, without any need of installing submeters, which permits asset benchmarking, recognizing anomalies and drives behavioural change for achieving energy savings and sustainability goals, the company stated in a statement.

"Bosch's Phantom Edge is a powerful ecosystem invented to be leveraged for industries who are jump starting their digital journey. RBEI's vision is to offer smart solutions for the globe and Phantom Edge is a step in that direction. We have confidence in what we have built as a product, which is invented for life," said Dattatri Salagame, President and Managing Director of RBEI.

The platform also offers real-time information on machines OEE (availability, performance and quality), part count and energy consumption, thereby allowing productivity and sustainability energies in the organisation in a cost-effective and non-intrusive way without the requirement for expensive on-site IT infrastructure.

Phantom Edge practices non-intrusive sensors to gather power signatures and machine learning (ML) algorithms sitting on the edge, analyses these signatures to deliver a real-time view of electrical energy consumption, operating usage, electrical parameters, and appliance-level information and thereby creates its digital twin.

The Phantom Edge device is built with Arm Cortex 1.6 GHz Speed processor and 2GB RAM to perform powerful AI and ML algorithms and 8GB internal memory to store the data during the connectivity loss.

The device provisions WiFi, 2G, 3G, 4G for cloud connectivity and BLE, RS 232 serial and ethernet for communicating with peripheral sensors/assets.

The solution also comes with a cloud-based SaaS application with a capability to give real time alerts and notifications for its customers to act upon the asset's productivity and energy consumption, company stated.
