In manufacturing, yield, consistency, and quality are of vital importance. Historically, it's been difficult for companies to optimize manufacturing processes. They simply didn't have access to the data or the analytical technologies to provide the insight needed to modify processes at a granular level. With the advent of big data technologies, the cloud, and ubiquitous … [Read more...] about How Big Data Can Make A Big Difference For Manufacturers

To Fear or Not to Fear Robots, That’s the Question
For all of us who follow with interest the progress of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Robots, the recent news about the victory of Googles AlphaGo against grandmaster Lee Se-Dol has made us think if we face the evolutionary moment in which technology finally triumphed humanity and it was Google who just proved how unpredictable artificial intelligence can be. To Fear or Not … [Read more...] about To Fear or Not to Fear Robots, That’s the Question
The Rise of Robots and AI, are They Taking Over the World?
Atlas from Boston Dynamics (a subsidiary of Google) is a pretty resilient chap, judging by this video.
