It’s obvious that you can do 5G without AI. However, the inverse is not always true—adding 5G to AI makes the AI platform run far more efficiently. In the third of three podcasts, I discussed this topic with Allan Yang, the CTO of Advantech. Allan brings a great perspective, as his company is one of the architects behind AI platforms. Hear all about it in this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.

Information and communications technology has changed several times over the last few decades—from client-server, web based, to cloud computing, and recently the trend has shifted towards edge computing. Edge computing allows industrial customers to use virtualization technologies that makes it easier to deploy and run a wider range of applications at the edge. Edge computing brings computation and data storage closer to where it is needed, to improve response times and save bandwidth.

In part II of a three-part series, Allan Yang, the Chief Technology Officer of Advantech, joins to discuss whether the application defines and solves the problem, or has the IoT become a solution looking for a problem. I’m oversimplifying here, but check out this week’s Embedded Executives podcast to hear the details.

We’ve defined AIoT on multiple occasions; it’s where AI intersects with the IoT. And for our purposes, it typically involves the Industrial IoT, aka IIoT.

Advantech announced it is launching its Advantech Industrial Wireless (AIW) solutions at the Advantech Connect event in partnership with ecosystem members Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., NXP, DEKRA, and E Ink.

Advantech announced the release of the TCG-OPAL compliant SQFlash 840F and 920F series.
