Engineering Transparency

Engineering Transparency

VectoraLab Edge is built on open standards and fully documented signal processing principles. There are no black-box algorithms — every computation is traceable and reproducible.

Open DSP Algorithms
All DSP operations use CMSIS-DSP — an open-source library from Arm. FFT, windowing, and statistical routines are fully documented.
Documented Feature Set
Each of the 32 features has a mathematical definition, expected range, and known fault sensitivity documented in the Engineering Reference.
Auditable Inference
The TinyML model architecture, training dataset provenance, and quantization methodology are disclosed in the Model Card.
Configurable Thresholds
Health Score zone thresholds are user-configurable via UART commands — not hardcoded. Operators can tune to their specific machinery.
