HOW IT WORKS

How Sensors + AI Work Together

From data capture to actionable predictions in four steps.

1

Sensors Capture Early Signals

Existing or low-cost sensors continuously monitor flow, pressure, current, temperature, vibration, and runtime hours. No special AI hardware required.

2

AI Learns Healthy Behavior

AI builds a baseline model for each device — normal flow vs power, pressure patterns, temperature rise, vibration signature. Every pump, valve, or motor becomes its own digital fingerprint.

3

AI Detects Wear & Tear

AI looks for slow drift over time, pattern deviation, abnormal combinations, and increasing variance. Even if values are within limits, AI flags degradation before failure.

4

Prediction & Action

AI outputs Device Health Score (0-100), remaining useful life estimate, failure probability, and maintenance recommendation — so you act before breakdown.

Even if sensor values are within normal limits, AI flags degradation by detecting slow drift, pattern deviation, abnormal combinations, and increasing variance.

AI UNDER THE HOOD

The AI & Models Behind PredictIQ

PredictIQ combines multiple machine learning techniques to deliver accurate, real-time predictions — all running on edge devices without cloud dependency.

Unsupervised Learning

Anomaly Detection (Autoencoder / Isolation Forest)

An unsupervised model learns the normal operating signature of each device. When sensor readings deviate from learned patterns — even slightly — the model flags it as anomalous. No labeled failure data needed to get started.

Deep Learning

Time-Series Forecasting (LSTM / Prophet)

Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) neural networks analyze sequences of sensor data over time to predict future trends — like a gradual increase in motor temperature or a slow drop in pump efficiency. This powers the Remaining Useful Life (RUL) estimation.

Supervised Learning

Classification Model (XGBoost / Random Forest)

A supervised classifier, trained on historical failure data, categorizes each device into risk levels — Low, Medium, or High. It considers multi-sensor correlations (e.g., rising current + dropping flow = bearing wear) for accurate failure probability scoring.

Edge AI

Edge Inference (TensorFlow Lite / ONNX Runtime)

Trained models are optimized and deployed on IoTMATE edge gateways using TensorFlow Lite or ONNX Runtime. All inference happens locally — no internet required, sub-second response, and complete data privacy.
