Attributes

Description

Type

New

Industry Sector

IoT and Infrastructure Smart Edge

Business driver

Surveillance camera for consumers, commercial and industrial segments 





Business use cases

Expedite the growth of cameras with more machine learning capabilities to make more decisions at the edge.  Use cloud services for making cameras more future proof 





Business Cost - Initial Build Cost Target Objective

Cost of a proof of concept on existing Commercial Off the Shelf hardware (Reference designs) 

Business Cost – Target Operational Objective

Varies widely depending on use-cases and the associated accompanying elements.

Security need

Security mechanisms need to be implemented at each layer of abstraction. PSA and PARSEC both provide a security framework.

Regulations

Varies depending on local regulations, GDPR etc. 

Other restrictions

N/A

Additional details

Project Cassini is the baseline for this initiative and is a open, collaborative, standards-based initiative to deliver a cloud-native software experience across a secure Arm edge ecosystem. Whether exploring the impacts of urbanization and climate change with software-defined sensor networks, pinpointing origins of power outages in smart grids with data provenance, or enhancing public safety initiatives through data streaming, Project Cassini leverages the power of diverse Arm-based platforms to create a secure foundation for edge applications.
