Classification and Cloud Connectivity Quiz
  • Take It to the Edge: Classification and Cloud Connectivity

    Many times, we focus on performing machine learning locally on-device, with no need for internet connectivity. This reduces latency, simplifies projects, and can sometimes reduce costs. However, some projects do require connectivity to the cloud in order to set a status, update a dashboard, log an activity or event, or allow a user to interact with a device. This month we're highlighting two example projects that use Edge Impulse plus Blues Wireless to send data to the cloud.
