Fog enabled telemetry embedded in real time multimedia applications

An edge computing device comprising:

• one or more computer processors;
• and
• a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more computer processors, cause the edge computing device to:
• receive first sensor data from at least a first sensor and a collaboration data stream from a first client device, the collaboration data stream including at least one of chat, audio or video data;
• convert the first sensor data into a collaboration data stream format, yielding a first converted sensor data;
• embed the first converted sensor data into the collaboration data stream, yielding an embedded collaboration data stream;
• and
• transmit the embedded collaboration data stream to an intended recipient.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by an edge computing device, cause the edge computing device to:

• receive first sensor data from at least a first sensor and a collaboration data stream from a first client device, the collaboration data stream including at least one of chat, audio or video data;
• convert the first sensor data into a collaboration data stream format, yielding a first converted sensor data;
• embed the first converted sensor data into the collaboration data stream, yielding an embedded collaboration data stream;
• and
• transmit the embedded collaboration data stream to an intended recipient.
