I love examples like these that bring agentic intelligence to the edge.  I know how hard this was to do in the past and Azure Percept was just the beginning.  Now being able to run these things independent of the cloud but still use the cloud to configure, monitor and deploy locally at the edge is amazing.  Cant wait to build this out and get started with Arc-enable Azure Linux OS, Foundry Local and AKS!!
