AI & Robotics Innovations at the Edge
Develop, build, and deploy end-to-end mobile robot applications with this purpose-built, open, and modular software development kit that includes libraries, middleware, and sample applications based on the open-source Robot Operating System 2* (ROS 2).
Bringing Down the Barriers to Edge Intelligence
The need for IoT edge applications has never been greater. But complex requirements; unique connectivity, security, and latency challenges; and disparate edge infrastructures impede progress and extend time to market for software developers.
With the Intel® Edge Insights Packages and reference software, we are accelerating the development of edge computing solutions and lowering the barriers to creating reliable, scalable applications.2 This one-stop resource makes it easy for developers to quickly find, prototype, and integrate the edge computing software they need. It offers robust tools and deployment-ready software packages that are pretested and prevalidated—helping to save time and money. Solution development is complemented by Intel’s expansive portfolio of scalable, interoperable hardware solutions and vast ecosystem offerings.
Simply choose the vertical-specific software package, customize the configurations to your needs, and decide on your target hardware for deployment. You’ll speed up the solution development journey from weeks to hours or minutes.

Edge Computing Software That Simplifies Edge AI Solutions
Start with a powerful foundation for data processing, image processing, and edge AI analytics. The Intel® Developer Catalog features vertical packages to accelerate innovation for key edge computing use cases.
Edge Insights for Autonomous Mobile Robots
Edge Insights for Autonomous Mobile Robots (EI for AMR) offers containerized software packages and pre-validated hardware modules for sensor data ingestion, classification, environment modelling, action planning, action control. Based on the ROS2 framework, it also includes the OpenVINO™ toolkit, Intel® oneAPI Base Toolkit (Base Kit), Intel® RealSense™ SDK, and other software dependencies in a container, along with the source code, as well as reference algorithms and deep learning models as working examples.
Edge Insights for Fleet
Edge Insights for Fleet aims to accelerate TTM through the use of containers and an optimized analytics framework that is combined with OpenVINO. EIF simplifies the learning curve for developers through the use of well-defined microservices, adds flexibility for system integrators, and accelerates the adoption of new use cases. In addition, the framework allows for the ability to develop an end-to-end solution with a reference cloud dashboard and the ability to manage a device or receive device specific telemetry, not just vehicle sensor data. All this can be done while creating an agnostic platform that can be used in a variety of fleet vehicles, geographies or even end-customer configurations.
Edge Insights for Vision
Edge Insights for Vision gives you an optimized Intel® Distribution of OpenVINO™ toolkit setup, along with preintegrated IoT components.2 All this provides a seamless edge-to-cloud developer experience.
