Development Rig

The purpose of this study is to develop a rig of interconnected devices that can be accessed, monitored, and controlled remotely. The rig will support modern development processes such as Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) and Machine Learning Operations (MLOps). The focus is on creating a flexible infrastructure that allows for remote management, testing, and deployment of applications across multiple devices.

This system is especially valuable in scenarios where developers and engineers need to work with distributed devices, such as those in industrial or research settings, without physically interacting with them. By enabling remote access, we create a platform for enhanced collaboration, automation, and scalability. Whether used for AI applications or traditional software, the rig will streamline the development and testing process while reducing the need for on-site management.

The project also aims to provide a foundation for advanced future applications, including AI-driven solutions like object recognition, process automation, or real-time analytics. This setup can serve as a testing bed for various experimental software, allowing developers to focus on improving their applications in a controlled and highly accessible environment.

Motivation

Scope

The scope of this study is to build a functional rig that allows for remote access and communication between devices. A primary goal is to demonstrate the running of a basic application across the devices, proving the capability of the system to handle remote operations. The project will focus on building a stable connection and communication layer while allowing for future scalability, such as adding more devices or expanding the complexity of applications.

The rig will serve multiple purposes, including software development, testing, and experimentation, particularly in scenarios where developers are not physically present with the devices. This infrastructure opens opportunities for working with distributed teams or testing applications across geographically distant locations, which is particularly relevant in industrial and research environments.
