Read MoreIoT Trends in Manufacturing: From Smart to Virtual
From the early 1900s to the 2000s, the manufacturing industry underwent significant innovation, beginning with lean manufacturing that introduced efficient assembly line production and specialized machinery tailored for specific tasks. Moving into the 2000s, the focus shifted towards the “smart factory,” integrating connected devices and automation to enhance equipment effectiveness and employing predictive maintenance to […]
Read MoreWhat is synthetic data? Examples, use cases and benefits
Synthetic data is information that’s artificially manufactured rather than generated by real-world events. It’s created algorithmically and is used as a stand-in for test data sets of production or operational data, to validate mathematical models and to train machine learning (ML) models. While gathering high-quality data from the real world is difficult, expensive and time-consuming, […]
Read More5 Biggest Hurdles Preventing Delivery Drones
Drones could solve many common problems with last-mile deliveries. They’re fast, don’t emit greenhouse gas emissions, can avoid traffic, and provide a way around worker shortages. Despite those benefits, they have yet to take off in the mainstream. It’s not that drone deliveries are altogether impossible. So, what’s stopping them from rewriting the delivery playbook? […]
Read MoreWhat is a drone (UAV)?
A drone is an unmanned aircraft. Drones are more formally known as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or unmanned aircraft systems. Essentially, a drone is a flying robot that can be remotely controlled or fly autonomously using software-controlled flight plans in its embedded systems, which work in conjunction with onboard sensors and a Global Positioning System […]
