PS-Board is a comprehensive IoT platform, providing a unified solution for managing, monitoring and controlling distributed asset and device systems.
Entity Management: Manage the lifecycle of devices and assets, allowing the definition of complex and hierarchical relationships.
Data Collection and Visualization: Collect data from devices via multiple protocols (MQTT, HTTP, CoAP,...) and visualize information vividly through a flexible, customizable dashboard system.
Two-way Control and Interaction: Send remote control commands to devices and actuators, ensuring real-time monitoring and operation.
Automation with Rule Engine: Build logical workflows based on events and queries, allowing automation of complex operational processes.
Extensibility and Customization: Supports setting up business rules and allows embedding custom code to meet specific user requirements.
