What is an active vs a passive observation?
Observation methods can be passive or active, passive observations occur without user involvement, while active observations require intent to capture asset data and a relationship with Troverlo.
Passive Observation
The Observer that is providing Asset data to the Troverlo Cloud does not have a relationship with Troverlo or the Asset! It just happens, passively in the background without any user intervention.
Active Observation
The Observer desires to capture information about their Asset and has a relationship with Troverlo. This can be done with an app (either the Troverlo App or a customer app with the Troverlo listening code), dedicated hardware (Tag Reader), and/or through other methods.
