Build On AWS: Powering your DIY with IOT

Farsight is an IoT demo that demonstrates the value of gathering telemetry data from machines that do not usually have smart-ness built in to them. By continuously measuring operational data such as revolutions, RPMs, wattage, machine and ambient temperature and usage we can build profiles of machines in the cloud. We can then use these profiles to perform analyses on these data to determine if a machine is working within its operational parameters or determine if it requires preventative maintenance, and if so, notifying retailers and consumers of what needs to be done. The demo makes use of the Intel Upsquared IoT board to collect data from a toy machine and uses AWS IoT to collect data and perform additional analysis on it.
