Edge AI systems consist of specialized hardware and software components, enabling the capture, processing, and analysis of sensor data locally (Figure 1). These systems include sensors and actuators for data acquisition, integrated with processing units and memory for data storage. However, modern sensors have inherent processing capabilities for preliminary data filtering and transformation. Due to limited computational resources at the Edge, pretrained, (use-case-specific) models are needed on the edge devices to optimize performance.

Most wearable devices now use AI to analyze data, provide actionable insights, and adapt to individual user needs in real-time. AI-powered wearables provide personalized fitness recommendations based on user activity, heart rate, and goals. It captures and analyze the data from accelerometers, gyroscopes, and heart rate sensors to track steps, calories burned, and workout intensity and provide fitness recommendations to achieve personal goals. For example, Fitbit analyses user activity levels, including breathing and sleep patterns. Apple Watch can identify accident or fall detection and contact predefined emergency services or contact persons. With AI’s help, some devices can also help manage chronic diseases like diabetes by monitoring glucose levels and providing actionable insights. Similarly, wearables are vital in mental health and stress management, as well as tracking stress levels and offering mindfulness exercises or breathing techniques.
