Has anyone put much thought into some kind of AI overlay or integration that could interact with your controller?
My thoughts towards a controller has always been primarily for monitoring and alerting first but then auto control second. I have a ton of notifications and monitors setup from over the years but the notifications can be tedious sometimes and ignored for me - like a pump having a low power draw mid day vs say an empty ATO.
I guess I’m thinking something that could monitor trends and detect abnormalities but also make intelligent type alerts.
Things that came to mind:
ATO Container expected to be empty in xx days
Pump power pull looks a little abnormal over the last day - could it need cleaning?
Tanks been left in feed mode for longer than a normal feed cycle. Is something going on?
I had architected a plan a while back to run a RasberryPie local to pull data and push out to cloud services where logic and monitoring could be built.
What would this type of service be worth on a subscription in your opinion? What features would add value that are currently lacking in the static 0-1 abilities say Neptune apex provides?
Or is there something already out there I may not be aware of?
I started in Apex gen 1 and have grown and been partial to that platform forever.
