Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. has unveiled the Qualcomm Aware Platform, which “empowers developers and enterprises to harness real-time information and data insights to accelerate their digital transformation programs.”
Today, ecosystem fragmentation and system design complexity often prevent IoT deployments from meeting their fullest potential. By combining industry-leading silicon and an extensive ecosystem of hardware and software partners with a developer-friendly cloud framework, Qualcomm Aware will offer a set of differentiated services for managing assets that require critical, accurate, and time-sensitive decision-making.
By providing ubituitous global connectivity, intelligently optimizing and fusing location technologies with sensor alerts and critical device management and control features, Qualcomm Aware will provide a new baseline for IoT and help enterprises drive operational efficiencies. Among the critical use cases to be served by Qualcomm Aware are cold chain distribution, utility asset monitoring, cargo shipment tracking, warehouse and inventory management.
Qualcomm said the Aware advantage rests upon three key pillars: (1) technology leadership; (2) Enablement of an expansive ecosystem of hardware and software partners; and (3) an API-first architecture and developer-friendly tools that enable interoperability with partner clouds and leading enterprise software tools.
