Abstract
Systems, methods, and devices are described for monitoring and protecting electronic hardware, data assets, and the facility itself, particularly well-suited to monitoring remote facilities and resources in edge locations, including for determining door state for both equipment and personnel doors, and for determining values of one or more environmental parameters, using optical image analytics. An example system includes one or more edge-located hardware monitoring devices having one or more physical sensors, and custom software distributed across edge, cloud, mobile, and enterprise platforms. An example monitoring device can include an embedded computer, various sensors of different types, one or more cameras, a power supply, and several communication interfaces. All or virtually all sensing and processing capabilities can be integrated into the edge device, which utilizes low-cost sensors and video analytics to monitor the environment.
