The Fusion of AI and Machine Vision Systems in Modern Automation

The Fusion of AI and Machine Vision Systems in Modern Automation

INSCMagazine: Get Social! Industrial growth is a maze where artificial intelligence and machine vision systems are combined to give birth to a new creation called modern automation. This change does not only appear in our industries but also penetrates the essence of how we produce things now. Manufacturing AI stands at the center of it all – this term means using AI technology within production lines so as to achieve higher levels of accuracy, speediness and effectiveness than had ever been witnessed before. Understanding the Synergy

Machine vision systems act as the factory’s eyes, allowing machines to see, […]

Don’t be Afraid of AI

Don’t be Afraid of AI

Bob Roebling

· Follow 5 min read·3 hours ago Photo by Steve Johnson on Unsplash The other night, I spoke with my family, and they raised concerns about Artificial Intelligence (AI). I started thinking about how often people have come to me to talk about how they didn’t like AI, how it would take over jobs, and how hackers could use it for evil through automated attacks or social engineering bots. These are valid concerns, but the real question is why the negatives are only brought up when so many more positives come […]

Factory automation looking more like us

Factory automation looking more like us

A humanoid robot of UBTech Robotics works at an automobile factory in Hefei, Anhui province, this year. [Photo provided to China Daily] In an auto factory, a humanoid robot effortlessly inspects car door locks, tests seat belts, examines headlamp covers and even affixes car emblems, further blurring the distinctions between humans and machines.

The robot, Walker S, is produced by Chinese AI and humanoid robotics company UBTech Robotics. This is not the first time that the company’s humanoid robots have created an internet sensation, as it works hard to commercialize the cutting-edge technology into more sectors for wider adoption.

AI is disrupting companies, governments and non-profit organisations alike. Entire employment sectors are changing; and, within them, individual roles are shifting, too — with a growing emphasis on skills rather than jobs.But, while robotics and automation, in past decades, mainly affected “blue collar” manufacturing jobs, AI is now shaking up more highly skilled white-collar roles. For example, it is altering the functions of — and the opportunities in — professions such as law and accountancy.Like previous technologies, […]

Eye-opening Statistics on Job Displacement Due to Automation (2023 Data)

Eye-opening Statistics on Job Displacement Due to Automation (2023 Data)

Automation has been a worry for years, as many traditional/manual patterned workers are seen losing their jobs to machined-based labor daily. It replaces human efforts with technology and results in job displacement. Although many workers have been displaced and more are still on the verge of being replaced, digital transformation is still the bomb. As per the estimates, by 2025, 85 million jobs will be lost to automation worldwide.

The global pandemic gave rise to many job displacements, as most businesses and shopping were transacted online. It’s been a struggle for recovery since the pandemic, and there’s little to no […]
