Factory installed or field added. From a voltage clamp on a hobbyist router to a full industrial array — the AI does the interpretation at every level.
The cheapest hardware does the sensing. The AI in RigidPulse does the interpretation. A kid with a $500 desktop CNC and a $20 current sensor gets access to intelligence that previously only existed in aerospace facilities.
ADXL357 accelerometer. Chatter, resonance, bearing wear.
Hall clamps ×4. Motor load, tool wear, binding detection.
IR + thermistors. Spindle thermal, motor overheat alerts.
Bus monitor. Power draw, quality, brownout detection.
Temp + humidity. Thermal expansion compensation.
MEMS mic. Acoustic chatter, bit breakage detection.
Global shutter camera. Cut zone monitoring, remote feed.

Vibration + Audio + Temperature. Chatter detection, acoustic alerts, spindle thermal monitoring. Advisory mode.
All 7 sensors. Complete telemetry — chatter correction, tool wear, power efficiency, visual monitoring.
Structured light scanner + RigidVault license + scan-to-toolpath on-machine. Scan → model → cut. No Autodesk.
Scanner + Heritage license + provenance metadata + white-glove onboarding. Preserve irreplaceable objects.
Scan parts against original model. Deviation map, pass/fail report. No CMM needed. Built into the machine.
Remote dashboard + SLA alerts. Bearing trending? Acoustic drift? The system flags it before failure.
