The SWARM Perception Box is a managed black box, meaning you do not need to manage hardware/OS/driver/security patches, but you also cannot access the system.
For getting started, you require the following 3 Steps:
1. Installation
Below you can find instructions on how to install the specific products we are offering. Additional requirements for specific use cases, can be found in the Use Case Section of our Documentation.
Connect the P101 and the camera to your network with ethernet cables.
3.
Ensure that IPs (and DNS, gateway) are issued to P101 and camera by the DHCP service.
Once the P101 is connected to power and network with Internet connectivity, the Perception Box should be online in your SWARM Control Center.
If you need to set a static IP configuration for the ethernet interface, please contact our support.
1 x IoT Ready SIM card (no PIN protection and no need for APN configuration)
​
Installation
1.
Open up OP101 and insert the SIM card into the LTE stick
2.
Test if LTE stick connectivity works on your PC
3.
Plug LTE stick again into OP101
4.
Configure static IP on your IP camera. We recommend using the IP 192.168.3.164, but you may use any IP within the same subnet (the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0)
5.
Configure the good resolution as specified in the Use Cases (Traffic, Parking). In case your use case is not specified, please choose 1080p (1920 x 1080).
6.
Directly connect the camera to the OP101 via an Ethernet cable
Once the OP101 is connected to power and network connection via LTE stick is available, you can see the box as an online Perception Box in your SWARM Control Center.

1.
A standard 3-pin-cable is required to connect the plug and play version
Once the StarterKit is connected to powerthe device, it will be online in your SWARM Control Center.
2. Device Configuration
After the Perception Box is successfully connected with the SWARM Control Center, you require configuring the used camera and scenario you are fulfilling.
For the already configured scenarios, you can gather your data either via MQTT or create Dashboards in our Data Analytics. Those dashboards offer out of the box visualizations as well as REST API's to gather more insights.
