Data collection
HomeLab is extensively monitored with many sensors and contains a lot of remotely controllable actuators for which status information is available. All data is stored in a secure and scalable data platform (Obelisk).
HomeLab thus allows to easily monitor and analyze a broad range of environmental parameters when a new product or service is tested or to set up data collection campaigns as input for the development of data-driven models and services.
