Electronic Technology Supporting the Evolution of “Next Tech”
This page explains Home Tech, which involves the use of technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and IoT to enable a sustainable and affluent lifestyle. This movement aims to leverage home management and control technology to enable more effective and waste-free utilization of household equipment and consumer electronics products.
Bringing humans and machines even closer with sensors and AI
Technologies that can detect brainwaves and what someone is thinking are rapidly advancing. The possibility of putting a BMI (Brain–Machine Interface) used as an interface for connecting a human being with machinery into practical use is emerging. This article introduces the trends in BMI evolution and the impact of this technology.
Smart Factories: Giving Form to Digital Transformation in the Manufacturing Industry
Robots used in plants are becoming smarter and more advanced. They are not simply automating routine tasks but independently performing situation-specific tasks, and moving in a coordinated manner with the movements of people. This article introduces scenarios in which cutting-edge robots are used and the roles that they play using automobile and semiconductor plants as examples.
The number of people working from home and taking part in online meetings is increasing. This has led to an increase in the number of women omitting makeup, which until then had been a part of their daily routine. Against this backdrop, products referred to as "beauty tech" that utilize AI, IoT, and other technologies are breathing new life into the cosmetics industry.
Smart Factories: Giving Form to Digital Transformation in the Manufacturing Industry
We give an explanation here about new transportation methods that have evolved with the progress of AI and IoT that are being utilized in smart factories. In addition to the work time of each process, the transportation of works in progress between processes and the replenishment of parts and materials have a major impact on improving productivity overall in lines that perform variable-mix variable-lot production. The use of smart AMRs has expanded in place of AGVs and other conventional transportation means.
Smart Factories: Giving Form to Digital Transformation in the Manufacturing Industry
This article explores digital twins – models that reproduce the functionality, performance, conditions, and behavior of real-world equipment, production lines, and factories. Digital twins offer a glimpse of realistic future scenarios and can simulate an array of operating conditions so that optimal solutions can be found, enabling efficient, highly value-added factory operation.
Smart Factories: Giving Form to Digital Transformation in the Manufacturing Industry
We give an explanation here about the optimization of variable-mix variable-lot production – a production structure that responds in a timely manner to the consumer market where diversification is progressing and trends are changing drastically. The application of IoT and smart robots is spreading to enhance the productivity of cell production system lines. Furthermore, expectations are also building for the utilization of AI and other technologies that predict the market environment and factory operating conditions.
VR and AR are attracting attention and being utilized more and more as teleworking takes root. Let’s look at the future of work using electronics technology.
Smart Factories: Giving Form to Digital Transformation in the Manufacturing Industry
As explored in this article, maintenance operations are a gateway to building smart factories. Predictive maintenance is taking off. By detecting symptoms of imminent equipment failure on production lines from slight vibration or other changes, manufacturers can take action before it's too late. This thinking can now be extended to proactive yield and quality management.
This article introduces the latest technologies that will bring comfort and safety to life with pets by making full use of artificial intelligence (AI) and IoT.
