Quick Setup (< 1 hour)

You can use Ember to monitor robotics and IoT systems directly on edge devices without requiring constant internet connectivity. It captures sensor data, detects hardware failures, and tracks system performance in real-time. The tool works offline-first, storing telemetry data locally and syncing to the cloud when available. It supports common robotics platforms like Jetson, Raspberry Pi, and various sensors including cameras and LiDAR systems for comprehensive fleet monitoring.
