As Artificial Intelligence (AI) continues to evolve, manufacturers across multiple industries – from printed circuit board (PCB) assemblers identifying defective solder points to food processing companies checking for broken seals – are increasingly relying on machine vision and edge intelligence technologies to drive product quality. They need a highly efficient, AI-driven solution with advanced vision capabilities to boost inspection speed and accuracy, while still being able to keep costs under control. Deep learning, a set of specialized algorithms designed to teach computers how to see and understand visual inputs such as images and videos, is particularly suited for developing AI vision analytics to add intelligence to the production line. It can be deployed on machines to give them the ability to detect flaws, guide robots, and control manufacturing processes, becoming an appealing option for businesses striving to achieve the highest level of quality assurance for their products.
While IoT allows enterprises to turn device data into actionable insights to optimize business processes and prevent problems, the ability to handle data in a timely, effective manner will determine whether an enterprise can fully enjoy the benefits of IoT. With numerous flows of data streamed from connected sensors and devices that are increasing by billion per year, it is only a matter of time that the enterprise clouds, growing slowly at an annual rate of thousands, will eventually be overwhelmed by enormous volumes of datasets which are beyond their capacity to digest.
The world’s urban population has grown by more than 25 percent since 2007, and is projected to represent 68 percent of humanity by 2050. This mass migration to large cities has altered the transportation landscape forever. To handle the influx of commuters, many large metropolitan areas began implementing intelligent transportation systems (ITS) as early as 2010. These platforms integrated data from traffic and surveillance cameras, parking systems, weather monitoring stations and other devices to provide better long-term insight into roadway infrastructure and mass transit systems.
Machine vision plays a critical role in this Industry 4.0 revolution because it allows manufacturing facilities to generate a tremendous volume of image data during production operation, based on which manufacturers can make timely adjustments to streamline and optimize procedures. The ultimate goal is to help manufacturing industries achieve substantial increase in efficiency and accuracy.
Video surveillance is a key ingredient of security systems, and it’s quickly transitioning from dumb camera systems to cloud-centric smart machines to fulfill safety requirements of vast metro systems. This white paper will take a closer look at the changing face of the transportation surveillance and security industry. And it will chronicle the transition from traditional surveillance systems comprising of cameras and antiquated tape backups to smart camera systems employing media servers and GPS trackers for processing real-time passenger information.
The highly diversifying digital signage industry is expected to retain its growth momentum in the coming years as digital signage continues to stretch across a broader range of sectors worldwide. From public transportation to commercial operations to campus and corporate facilities, digital signage applications like large signboards, video walls, smart displays, interactive kiosks and whiteboards are more widely used than ever before. Of all the markets driving the prevalence of digital signage, education and retail remain in the spotlight, thanks to the increased implementation of digital signage solutions in both segments following a rising demand for relevant applications.
Axiomtek has committed to providing reliable power protection solutions for its industrial PC products, which are deployed in mission critical environments for applications such as on-board mass transit surveillance, factory automation or rugged outdoor applications where highly reliable computers are the key to the continuity of operations. In many industrial processes, the continuity of power supply is required 24/7. The power source needs to be regulated and protected to prevent loss of important information or costly downtime, for example in a production line environment. The computers used to control the operations should be ready to predict and respond quickly to a sudden power failure. Many of Axiomtek’s embedded motherboards and systems offer the IPM feature to combat power fluctuation issues. The Intelligent Power Management (IPM) functionality is integrated into the CPU motherboard or offered as a separate module. In this article, the focus will be on the general hardware structure and functionality of the IPM unit utilized in transportation embedded systems designed by Axiomtek. We will also showcase the ease of use of the system’s utilities, e.g. setting changes through the BIOS or OS.
While industrial manufacturers running different types of plants and facilities may have their individual production priorities and focuses, how to maximize the operating life and productivity of their machinery has always been at the core of factory floor management. Because the smooth running of a manufacturing plant is heavily dependent on the proper functionality of its machines, when a machine comes offline due to an unexpected malfunction or breakdown, it can lead to equipment shutdown and disruptions to normal operations, costing organizations tremendous downtime and losses, which is why plant managers need an effective maintenance approach to help discover and fix issues promptly before they develop into actual failures. Implementing the right maintenance program allows manufacturers to make sure that their factory assets stay in perfect health and are running at their best to retain optimum output capacity, saving on both costly unplanned downtime and repairs.
The COM Express® specification Rev. 2.0 has key features to support abundant high bandwidth interfaces digital display interfaces, such as DisplayPort and High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI), as well as USB 3.0 and additional PCI Express interfaces. In addition to the existing Types 1 through 5, the COM Express® specification Rev. 2.0 also added in the new Type 6 and Type 10 for the more extensive technology upgrades.
Factory automation technology is entering a period of rapid change and technical advances designed to improve operations. Factory processes will be more efficient with higher reliability and better quality output. Requirements for operator intervention in manual settings or in open control loops will become increasingly rare and even closed loop controls will change as intelligent sensors and universal connectivity become commonplace. Fast networks will allow factory data to be available outside the plant in real time and secure networks will replace present-day slow, insecure communications.
The COM Express® standard was first released in 2005 as the open industry standard for Computer-On-Module by the PCI Industrial Computer Manufacturers Group (PICMG). The COM Express® standard has worked to provide standardized module interfaces for several different target industries such as industrial automation, gaming, defense and aerospace, medical, retail, advertising, etc.
September 11, 2001 changed the face of security not only in the United States, but in other countries as well.
