Edge & Robotics

Shodh-memory runs anywhere from Raspberry Pi to industrial PLCs. No cloud, no latency, no data leaving your premises. Memory that works where your robots do.

# Why Edge Memory Matters

Cloud-based AI has three fatal flaws for robotics:

  1. LATENCY  - 100-500ms round trip kills real-time control
  2. CONNECTIVITY - Factories, farms, vehicles lose connection
  3. PRIVACY  - Operational data leaving premises = IP risk

Shodh-memory solves all three:

  + <1us graph lookup, 34-58ms semantic search
  + Single binary, zero network dependencies
  + All data stays on-device, always
