NEPI by Numurus vs. OptiSigns Comparison Chart

NEPI (Numurus Edge Platform Interface) is a source available software platform for edge AI. It handles about 90 percent of what most smart systems need out of the box: hardware drivers, sensor integration, AI model management, event-driven automation, data collection, and a browser-based UI. Your team builds the remaining 10 percent with low-code scripting. Built on ROS and ROS 2, NEPI runs fully at the edge with no cloud dependency. It is hardware agnostic and installs in minutes on any Linux machine, including Raspberry Pi and any Ubuntu system, so you can start on hardware you already own with no dedicated edge hardware required. Most teams spend months rebuilding the same infrastructure on every project. NEPI removes that work: connect sensors, run AI on the data, trigger an action. Deployed in defense, research, industrial automation, and education, with production systems at OceanAero, WESMAR, and VideoRay.
