Introduction To TelemetryOS Edge

TelemetryOS Edge Overview

TelemetryOS Edge is our custom-built operating system for digital signage, designed to run the TOS Player securely and efficiently at scale.

Strong foundations

TelemetryOS Edge is based on a hardened Linux distribution and trimmed to the essential components required to run the media player. This appliance-like approach improves boot reliability, reduces background services, and dedicates system resources to playback.

What’s improved in this generation

Improved multi-screen handling (including unusual aspect ratios and video walls)
Overall performance optimizations for smooth playback
Foundations for future AI-assisted capabilities

Hardware

Recommended: Node Pro — tested, fanless hardware that ships with TelemetryOS Edge.
Alternatives: Bring Your Own Device with supported configurations.

🧭
Plan hardware early for multi-screen or video walls; validate GPU and outputs.
