FogHorn Systems (Johnson Controls)

FogHorn Systems was a Sunnyvale, California developer of edge AI and machine learning software for the industrial and commercial Internet of Things (IIoT). Its Lightning Edge AI platform and Lightning EdgeML brought real-time streaming analytics and ML inference to constrained on-premises edge hardware for predictive maintenance, machine optimization, and operational intelligence use cases. Johnson Controls acquired FogHorn in January 2022 and folded its team and technology into the OpenBlue suite of smart, autonomous building solutions, with the former Sunnyvale headquarters operating as a Johnson Controls "AI Hub." FogHorn no longer operates as a standalone brand and publishes no independent public developer surface — no developer portal, API reference, SDKs, or GitHub organization resolve as of this enrichment pass; the former foghorn.io/foghorn.ai domains are parked. This profile is retained as a network company record with no public API artifacts to harvest.

FogHorn Systems (Johnson Controls) is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Ai Apps, Edge AI, Industrial IoT, and Machine Learning.
