What is Edge AI?

Edge Artificial Intelligence

Edge AI is machine learning that runs directly on a device at the network edge rather than in the cloud, delivering low latency, privacy, and offline operation for tasks like vision, audio, and sensor analysis.

By keeping inference on-device, edge AI cuts bandwidth and response time and keeps sensitive data local — powering smart cameras, wearables, and autonomous machines.
