You now see where PORTABILITY comes into play...e.Digital can manage the attributes of data from any sensor on the CE device and pour it all to the server....then manage that data on the server side.
And that's just the digital data management after it has been constructed.
Prior to that, they have to deal with the analog issues and get it all converted to digital data and then stage it.
e.Digital micro-controller and OS issues on steroids.....With that, we are now a dozen years from my understandings of what they are now capable of doing.
