Overview
Description
Reality AI Tools® allows engineers to generate and build TinyML/Edge AI models based on advanced signal processing. Users can automatically explore sensor data and generate optimized models. Reality AI Tools contains analytics to find the best sensor or combination of sensors, locations for sensor placement, and automatic generation of component specs and includes fully explainable model functions in terms of time/frequency domains, and optimized code for Arm® Cortex® M/A/R implementations.
Try Reality AI Explorer to experience firsthand how Reality AI Tools can help you develop AI and TinyML solutions in industrial, automotive and commercial applications.

Automatically Explores Sensor Data and Generates Optimized Models

AI Explore
AI Explore automatically finds alternative solutions and tells you what it found.

Additionally, the processing requirements for each possible solution can be shown so you can make necessary trade-offs.

Explainable AI
With Explainable AI, specific class signatures can be inspected in terms engineers understand.

Sensor Selection
Identify the best performing sensors, and the best, most cost-effective locations.
Setting Specifications
Use AI to set minimum component specifications.
Automated Monitoring
The cheapest problems to fix are the ones you catch early. Reduce the cost of data collection through automated monitoring for common pitfalls.
Easy Integration
Easily integrate Reality AI Tools with your firmware build. Reality AI Tools supports Arm® Cortex® M, R and A architectures from all major manufacturers, as well as Linux and Windows. Many non-Arm architectures are also supported. Ask us about your target processor.
Add-ons for Reality AI Tools

Use Cases

Reality Time Analysis
Use our analytics engine to support hardware design (not just algorithms and model building)

Anomaly Detection
Reality AI software helps you detect anomalies by learning normal behavior. You can use the built-in anomaly detection and condition monitoring dashboard, or create your own.

Predictive Maintenance & Remaining-Useful-Life
Predict the remaining useful life of components (filters, etc.), identify operational conditions, and detect abnormal conditions.

Sensorless Sensing with Motor Control
Develop predictive maintenance applications with no addition to the Bill of Materials - only a firmware upgrade to the motor control board.
