SmartSense is an intelligent industrial sensor and software system designed to monitor machine conditions in real time, predict failures, and prevent costly downtime through automated intervention. The project aims to help manufacturing companies improve operational reliability, reduce maintenance costs, and extend the lifespan of industrial equipment.

The solution combines Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) technology with artificial intelligence to continuously collect and analyze machine data. By detecting anomalies and identifying early warning signs of potential failures, SmartSense enables predictive maintenance and helps prevent unexpected breakdowns before they occur. Unlike many existing solutions, the system is designed to be affordable, automated, and accessible for small and medium-sized enterprises.

The project is currently in the prototype manufacturing stage, with pilot testing planned at partner companies. SmartSense operates through a hybrid hardware-software business model, generating revenue from both device sales and recurring service fees. Its long-term vision is to make advanced smart factory technologies and predictive maintenance solutions available to a broader range of industrial businesses.
