❓ Frequently Asked Questions

GaugeSnap is an AI-powered solution that automatically reads analog and digital gauges using computer vision technology. It captures images of gauges, processes them using advanced AI algorithms including YOLO and CNN models, and converts the readings into digital data for monitoring and analysis.

GaugeSnap can read virtually any type of gauge including pressure gauges, temperature gauges, flow meters, level indicators, voltage meters, panel meters, analog displays, and digital readouts. Our AI adapts to different gauge styles, scales, and orientations.

GaugeSnap achieves 99.8% accuracy on average across all gauge types. The system continuously improves through machine learning and can achieve even higher accuracy rates through calibration specific to your equipment.

GaugeSnap is used across multiple industries including oil & gas, petrochemicals, manufacturing, power generation, water treatment, pharmaceuticals, automotive, food & beverage, and building management systems.

GaugeSnap runs on standard industrial cameras (IP cameras or USB cameras), edge computing devices (NVIDIA Jetson, Intel NUC, or industrial PCs), and requires internet connectivity for cloud features. The system supports both edge computing and cloud-based processing.

Yes, GaugeSnap includes advanced image enhancement algorithms that work in various lighting conditions. For optimal performance in low-light environments, we recommend LED illumination or infrared lighting solutions.

Absolutely! Our multi-gauge detection technology can monitor hundreds of gauges simultaneously from a single camera view or across multiple camera feeds. Each gauge is individually tracked and processed.

Edge AI processes gauge readings locally on industrial-grade computing devices, reducing latency to under 10ms and ensuring operation even without internet connectivity. Critical data processing happens at the edge, with cloud sync for analytics and reporting.

GaugeSnap supports major industrial protocols including Modbus TCP/RTU, OPC UA, MQTT, REST APIs, Ethernet/IP, and can integrate with SCADA systems, PLCs, DCS, and building management systems.

Typical implementation takes 2-4 weeks depending on the complexity and number of gauges. This includes hardware installation, AI model calibration, system integration, and user training. Pilot projects can be deployed within a week.

Yes, we provide complete installation services, system configuration, AI model training for your specific gauges, integration with existing systems, and comprehensive user training. Remote support is available 24/7.

Yes, GaugeSnap is designed for seamless integration with existing SCADA, DCS, ERP, CMMS, and building management systems. We support standard industrial protocols and provide custom API integrations when needed.

The AI model can be easily retrained for new gauges or modified equipment. Our self-learning algorithms adapt to changes, and we provide ongoing support for system updates and expansions.

Yes, our mobile app provides real-time monitoring, alerts, historical data viewing, and system management capabilities. Available for both iOS and Android with offline capabilities for critical functions.

Pricing varies based on the number of gauges, required features, and deployment model (cloud vs. edge). We offer flexible licensing including per-gauge, site-wide, and enterprise options. Contact us for a customized quote and ROI analysis.

Yes, we offer a 30-day pilot program where you can test GaugeSnap with your actual gauges. This includes hardware setup, AI model training, and full system access to evaluate performance and ROI.

We provide 24/7 technical support, regular software updates, AI model improvements, system health monitoring, and ongoing optimization services. Enterprise customers receive dedicated support teams.

Most customers achieve ROI within 6-12 months through reduced labor costs, improved accuracy, prevention of equipment failures, and enhanced safety compliance. Our ROI calculator can provide specific estimates for your situation.

Yes, our service packages include regular software updates, AI model improvements, system health monitoring, preventive maintenance, and technical support. Updates are deployed automatically or on-schedule based on your preferences.

Absolutely. GaugeSnap follows industrial cybersecurity best practices including encrypted communications, secure authentication, role-based access control, audit logging, and compliance with standards like IEC 62443.

Data can be processed locally on edge devices for maximum security, or in secure cloud environments with enterprise-grade encryption. You maintain full control over data location and access policies.

Yes, GaugeSnap supports compliance with various industry standards including ISO 9001, ISO 14001, OSHA, EPA regulations, and industry-specific requirements for pharmaceuticals, food safety, and process industries.

Yes, GaugeSnap can operate entirely on-premises or in private cloud environments. Edge AI processing ensures sensitive operational data never leaves your facility while still providing advanced analytics capabilities.
