IrisNet: An Architecture for Internet-scale Sensing Services

Summary: IrisNet is a scalable architecture for global, queryable sensor services spanning webcams and infrastructure monitors. It uniquely exploits edge compute/storage with aggressive filtering, query routing, and semantic caching to reduce bandwidth and latency. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
