A new article at IoT World Today asks Is My Smart Factory Smarter Than Yours? It’s Hard to Say.
The latter part of the article explains how, when there’s a problem in a smart factory, it can have large affects. The onus is on technology that can predict problems before they cause downtime. This leads to questions where the data processing should be the observations that:
“In the long-run, pushing everything to the cloud doesn’t work from a cost point of view.”
and
“Once you aggregate and compress the data, for example, to ‘max,’ ‘min,’ ‘outliers,’ ‘average’ and stuff like that, you lose the ability to run data science”
Such situations are the focus of our new Sensor Cognition™ technology that can provide machine intelligence at the edge.
