Introducing The Future of Technology and Manufacturing from Technically Speaking: An Intel Podcast.

Follow the show: Technically Speaking: An Intel Podcast

The manufacturing process is a carefully orchestrated system where each step is as important as the next. But oftentimes there is limited real-time inspection of parts, and defects are detected too late or missed. Enter Eigen Innovations, the Intel-supported AI system that allows workers to be more efficient and helps manufacturers avoid losing money on returns and recalls of defective products. In this episode, Eigen executive Jon Weiss discusses what’s next at the intersection of manufacturing and technology, including the crucial role Intel will play in an essential industry that drives the global economy.
