Why Industry 4.0?

The Industrial revolution 4.0 marks the birth of digitisation and automation of the manufacturing processes called - 'Smart Manufacturing.' Industry 4.0 however, is not a new technology and nor it is a business discipline but a new approach called 'Smart Manufacturing' which is fully integrated, collaborating manufacturing systems that respond in real-time to meet the changing conditions and demands in the factory in the supply network and customer needs. This new approach will help the manufacturers to achieve the results that weren't possible a decade ago. Therefore, thanks to the advancements in technology. Smart Factory which is at the heart of the Industry 4.0 will take on board the Information and communication technology (ICT) for the evolution in the production [...]

Edge Computing – Event Horizon Part I

When Intelligence moves to Edge - The proliferation of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the rich growth of the cloud services have pushed the horizon of a new computing paradigm which processes the data at the 'Edge of the Network.' Edge computing may sound like some hyper-advanced technology, but it is not. It refers to the location where data is processed. Think of a data centre as the hub of a computer network and outside offices or business locations as network edges. Edge computing is the practice of collecting and analyzing data where it is generated – At network edges. Data generated at network edges can come from a variety of sources – Phones, IoT devices, POS systems – [...]

Blockchain in FSI’s Ifs and Buts!

Blockchain technology is called the next stage of the Internet. The blockchain is a global, decentralised online database or distributed ledger that provides a way to record and transfer data that are transparent, safe, auditable, and resistant to outages, that anyone with an internet connection from anywhere in the world can use. Blockchain can make the organisations that use it open, democratic, decentralised, efficient, and secure. The blockchain has social perceptions strongly related to bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Most people view blockchain as something intellectual for tech-savvy cyber criminals for anonymous black-market transactions or people who are anti-government, against the centralisation of financial regulative authorities. The emerging reality is that blockchain has applications that are far beyond cryptos, and as [...]

Robotics Revolution: Man vs Machine – Case Study on Japan

The idea of 'Automata' originates from the mythologies of many cultures across the globe. Early inventors and engineers from ancient civilisation such as Greek, Chinese, or Ptolemaic Egyptian attempted to develop a self-operating or automated machine resembling the humans and animals. The term 'Robot' comes from the Czech word "Robota" refers to "Forced Work or Labor" was first used to refer the word 'Artificial Automata' in a 1920 play R.U.R (Rossum's Universal Robots) by the Czech interwar writer 'Karl Capek.' In 1928, one of the first 'Humanoid Robots,' invented by W.H.Richards delivered a speech in the annual event of the 'Model Engineers Society' in London. The brief history resonates that 'Robots' are not a new innovation but is a 'Thinking [...]

Evolution of Drones

It is the 'Era' of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV), or Unmanned Aerial System (UAS), an all-encompassing term which includes the aircraft or the UAV, and the ground-based controller (the person operating the machine), and the system of communications connecting the two, commonly known as 'Drones.' Today, the drones are revolutionizing the world and businesses which hardly anyone could have ever imagined. UAVs or drones was an aircraft without a human pilot aboard. UAVs include both autonomous drones and Remotely Piloted Vehicles (RPVs). According to the brief history "The U.S. military experimented with pilotless aeroplanes as “aerial torpedoes” or flying bombs far back during the first world war, but with no significant success—until the Vietnam war, when jet-propelled, camera-equipped drones built [...]
