With cameras seemingly everywhere, facial recognition is an understandably popular application of AI in the quest for enhancing safety, security and convenience. But it’s also laced with thorny issues around privacy, ethical use and bias. In today’s episode, Anyvision CTO Dieter Joecker helps pull apart those issues, both on the technology the evolving regulations fronts.

In today’s episode we continue to focus on that very messy edge-of-network in industrial settings and how to solve this Factory-4.0 Achilles heel. Joining the discussion is PTC Kepware’s Kyle Carreau. Kepware has been solving the messy edge problem for the world of OT since well before “IoT.” Now, under the spotlight of more OT-IT convergence and real progress in deploying Industrial IoT solutions, PTC Kepware finds itself in the right place, at the right time to help solve those messy problems at the edge, both with their traditional KEPServerEX or pushing out to the very networks edge with ThingWorx Kepware Edge deployed on widely distributed industrial gateways and PC’s.

The world of electrical energy has shifted dramatically in the past few decades, and this shift has been outpacing the modernization of the electrical grid itself. In order to balance and mitigate challenges from changes in the electrical grid, it is paramount that utilities begin to modernize infrastructure and start to participate in active grid management with data-driven, autonomous decisions. This means adding edge intelligence into substations and building a modern infrastructure at the edge. Learn about this and more as Mike Fahrion, CTO of the Industrial-IoT Group for Advantech North America, talks with Prithpal Khajuria, Global Segment leader for Smart Infrastructure at Intel, and Jason Shepherd, VP of Ecosystems at ZEDEDA.

In order to meet modernization challenges, utilities need technologies that allow them to rapidly and easily respond—virtualization is one of those technologies. In this episode, we take a deep dive into substation virtualization and its significance to grid modernization.

In the early days of the Industrial Internet of things, all the talk and focus was about the cloud and cloud platforms. But as the IIoT started to move from talk to action, that focus has shifted back down to the Edge. Tom Arthur, CEO and co-founder of Dianomic joins today’s discussion to discuss why the Edge has become such a critical piece of the solution architecture, and how to solve the complexities of the Edge of the Industrial IoT.

It’s been 60 years since the development of AI based data science and not even five years since AI conquered the complex game of Go. But it’s just in the last couple years where AI based video analytics has begun to move beyond the domain of scientists and into the hands of engineers. 2021 marks the point where video-based AI in manufacturing climbs the curve from early adopters towards the early majority. In this episode, Mehdi Merai, CEO and co-founder of Dataperformers discusses the state of AI in Operations, common applications, how to get started and challenges to overcome.

Digital Transformation is becoming the #1 driver to growing shareholder value, able to unlock massive potential in legacy manufacturing companies. Yet, many companies don’t fully understand what digital transformation is, or have a viable roadmap to get there. In this episode, Walker Reynolds, DX architect and CEO of Intellic Integration shares the Intellic recipe for successful Digital Transformation in manufacturing. Perhaps more importantly, we discuss the top Digital Transformation fails and how to identify them before they derail your Digital Transformation journey.

The North American electric grid is paramount to economic infrastructure and it’s the largest, distributed electric infrastructure we have. But, simply put, it’s old. And with a changing world, the system is becoming more distributed, more complex, and the flow of electricity is becoming bidirectional. What is the path forward to handle it? How do we built a modern infrastructure at the edge? In this episode, Intel’s Prithpal Khajuria helps to answer these questions and more. Listen in to understand one of our biggest digital transformation challenges—the need for modernization of our electrical grid.

The automation industry is a slow-moving machine. It’s encumbered not only with complex, specialized processes and long-life legacy equipment, but also the lasting effects of automation vendors focused on closed systems and vendor lock in. Taken together, it’s created a landscape primed for disruption. That state has been further exposed by IT/OT convergence and digital transformation. In today’s episode, I talk with Inductive Automation’s Travis Cox about the state of the industry, how Inductive Automation approach has enabled industry disruption, and forward looking trends on where the IA community is creating innovation.

Cybersecurity for the Industrial IoT is an often misunderstood or underestimated challenge. While there are many IIoT components that you can learn-as-you-go using an agile approach, that is a high-risk strategy when it comes to security. In this episode, Mocana’s Rolf O’Grady lays out the unique challenges of security for IIoT in comparison to the world of IT and enterprise solutions. If you are on the IoT and digital transformation journey, listen to this episode of IoT at the Edge before taking your next steps.
