You know what they say, a picture paints a thousand words. In this case, the demo video illustrates perfectly what SmarterLink does. 

SmarterLink will be free, open source. However, its true power comes from when it is implemented along with solutions from the three project partners: Scantron Ltd, Jetsoft, and Machine Intelligence. 

No. SmarterLink will be free and open source. However, other fees and costs may be payable if you use it as part of a solution provided by one of the three partners. 

If you have a robust inspection or NDT testing protocol that creates lots of data but you lack actionable and auditable information, SmarterLink could be a great solution for you. It takes your inspection data, categorizes it and then analyses and interprets it into actionable information. This information can then be stored/archived for future trend analysis, quality assurance and control (QA/QC), auditing, and compliance. 

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of everyday devices – like thermostats, sensors, appliances, and wearables – that connect to the internet to collect data and automate tasks. For example, you could ask Alexa^TM to turn on the heating in your home or turn on the living room lights.

The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is a specialised form of IoT used in industrial settings, where machines, sensors, and control systems connect to improve efficiency, safety, and real–time decision–making in factories, energy, transport, and similar sectors. With SmarterLink you can integrate several data outputs and amalgamate them into one central repository.

SmarterLink is fully customizable and can be integrated seamlessly into your existing IT infrastructure. If you use a cloud service such as Azure or AWS, no worries. If your IT infrastructure uses an internal cloud because you’re in a highly regulated industry, no worries, SmarterLink works there, too.
