The Smart-Data Approach
Break Free from Big Data Overload
Empowering the transition from Big Data to Smart-Data infrastructure
Gone are the days of attempting to capture everything, drowning in terabytes of data per hour per smart system. Our approach recognizes that a brute force strategy is no longer sustainable – important edge cases are often lost amidst the noise. So, the question arises: how can we automatically collect the data that truly matters in situations worth our focus to further improve autonomous systems? Our answer is Smart-Data, a curated collection of rich data relevant to situations of interest, tagged for searchability. It’s lightweight, available in near real-time, easier to process, and share.
The Big Data Theory
Recording everything
Meaning an overwhelming amount of data which often slows down Development and Operations teams.
Time consuming
63% of employees say they can’t get insights from Big Data in the right time-frame.
Capital Intensive
Poor data quality can cost the US economy as much as $3.1 trillion per year
Inefficient
The average company analyzes only 37-40% of its data
Unsustainable
90% of the world’s data has been created in the last two years.
The Smart-Data Approach
Record only what you need
Only record the data that is relevant to you thanks to our event-based approach
Automated Data Processing
We automatically turn raw data into Smart-Data and seamlessly distribute it across the right teams
Cost Efficient
Directly filtering the 1% valuable data
Iterate on your recording strategy
Allowing you to find the needle in the haystack
Next generation data processing
Useless data can be ignored gradually saving costs and GHG emissions
How it works
1. Onboarding
Developers use the Heex SDK to create custom monitors and recorders tailored to their specific needs. This flexibility allows for precise data collection tailored to unique scenarios.
2. Ecosystem Integration
Thanks to standard data formats and robust APIs, integrating Heex Smart-Data with your existing ecosystem is straightforward. This ensures compatibility with various tools and platforms used for further data processing and analysis.
3. Deployment
Heex agents can be deployed across diverse environments: Autonomous Vehicles and Edge Devices: For real-time Smart-Data capture, Heex agents are deployed within autonomous vehicles, robots, and other edge devices. Back-end Systems: For historical data analysis, Heex agents capture data from replays or re-simulations in cloud or on-premises environments.
4. Data Collection and OTA
Once the data is collected by Heex agents, it is stored in your preferred location—whether in the cloud, or on-premises. The metadata is sent to the Heex Cloud for analysis and processing. Heex Cloud also hosts over-the-air (OTA) management of Heex agents.
Key Capabilities
Edge & Real-time Data Capture
Imagine capturing only the specific data you need, at the source, and in real-time. Heex makes this possible by harnessing edge computing to capture meaningful data directly from your autonomous systems or vehicles. Think sensor readings, camera footage, LIDAR scans – anything crucial for your development, supervision or reporting needs.
Crafted from the Heex SDK, our agents are tailored to meet your unique needs. Automate the compilation and deployment process with our CLI, streamlining your workflow and enhancing productivity.
Heex is middleware independent, and comes with examples for popular frameworks like ROS1, ROS2, APEX, and AVETO. Choose the best tools for your project without constraints.
Server Side Data Replay
Proactively identify and capture data that truly matters or intelligently mine your historical data, sifting and prioritizing critical moments.
Easily and securely share data for collaboration and regulation compliance. Heex's advanced role-based access control and data immutability, safeguards your valuable data assets' security and integrity.
Flexible & Secure Infrastructure Management
Deploy the solution as a Software as a Service or On-premise. Our platform ensures robust data protection through secure transmission and storage, while maintaining the adaptability needed to scale with the evolving needs of AI and autonomous systems. This enables organizations to manage their data with confidence, security, and efficiency.
Configuring and managing your systems and data capture becomes a breeze. Our platform is designed to facilitate both interactive and automated workflows leveraging the Heex CLI, ensuring flexibility and efficiency, and outputs Rosbags for seamless integration in your workflows
Unique Over-The-Air Technology & Data Analytics
Skip manual reporting—instantly visualize event statistics. Quickly spot trends and take action.
The Analysis of your data allows you to adapt and quickly update your event conditions.
Deploy seamlessly across various environments with the Heex agent installer. Benefit from over-the-air (OTA) configuration and updates, ensuring that managing your agents remains both scalable and straightforward.
Visualize, without download, and manage your Smart-Data with unparalleled ease, using advanced tag-based searches, fostering collaboration across your teams.
Who we serve ?
For SMBs and Entreprise
Scalability
Heex software agents seamlessly collect data from within robots, integrating effortlessly with any robotic control system.
Security
Heex uses OAuth 2.0 for logins, JWT for API authentication, and HTTPS (TLS) for agent-to-cloud communication. This multi-layered approach safeguards our platform against common vulnerabilities.
Modularity
Our highly adaptable software agent framework and SDK supports an unlimited number of deployments across your autonomous fleet. The system's abstraction layers allow for effortless customization, with infinite combinations of triggers and conditions that can be reprogrammed over-the-air directly from the centralized Platform.
