Seamlessly update your firmware, configuration or AI/ML Models in your edge devices - in a remote and secure way.
Seamlessly update your firmware, configuration or AI/ML Models in your edge devices - in a remote and secure way.
Over-the-air (OTA) updates are crucial for IoT devices to receive security patches, bug fixes, and new features remotely. This eliminates the need for physical access to the device, saving time and cost.
Embien’s RAPIDSEA OTA Update Stack is a popular solution that is reliable, efficient, and easy to use. It offers features like rollback capabilities, security, and flexibility, making it a great choice for IoT deployments.
RAPIDSEA Over the Air Update Stack is a proven solution for managing device updates. Along with Flint IDE, which provides a user-friendly interface for managing devices, creating update packages, and deploying them. It simplifies the process of OTA updates, making it accessible to developers and system administrators. Some reasons why it's a great choice for IoT devices:
RAPIDSEA OTA Stacks incorporates robust security features to protect devices during the update process. Leveraging powerful crypto algorithms (hardware or software based), it ensures the integrity and authenticity of update packages, preventing unauthorized modifications.
Our stack supports a wide range of devices and operating systems, as well as partial and full firmware update features, making it adaptable to various IoT deployments. It can be customized to fit user-specific needs and integrates with different cloud platforms.
Embien has a proven track record of delivering reliable and efficient firmware and configuration OTA updates over the past 15 years. RAPIDSEA OTA stack includes features like rollback mechanisms and error handling to minimize the risk of update failures.
Firmware Over-the-air (FOTA) updates are crucial for connected as well as non-connected devices.
With embedded devices often being exposed to various security threats, FOTA updates allow for timely delivery of security patches, mitigating risks and protecting them.
As the market evolves, new features and functionalities can be added to end devices through FOTA updates. This ensures that devices remain relevant and competitive without requiring physical intervention.
Also, if issues are discovered in the device's firmware, FOTA updates can be used to deploy fixes, improving its performance and reliability.
RAPIDSEA FOTA Update stack serves this purpose well.
Many niche digital devices need to be fine-tuned for proper functionality as per the field conditions. While the firmware need not be updated, the configurations must be set for optimal performance.
RAPIDSEA COTA update stack enables these Configuration Over-the-Air (COTA) updates over remote communication interfaces. This allows manufacturers to streamline device management, reduce maintenance costs, and ensure that customer specific settings are in place.
Together with Flint Visual Programmer, it is even possible to make some logical changes dynamically.
Model Over-the-Air (OTA) updates in embedded AI edge devices allow for remote updates of AI/ML models. This enables devices to learn from new data, adapt to changing environments, and improve their performance without physical intervention.
With RAPIDSEA MOTA update stack, OEMs can ensure that devices remain up to date with the latest AI advancements, enhance their capabilities, and extend their lifespan.
Embien offers its Flint System Configurator to configure the system to select one of the Update models such as:
All these configurations can be done on the IDE and auto-generated code can be compiled with the project to achieve expected results.
