Sensors veteran Roger Grace spoke with EE World about his award, data acquisition, IoT, and the trouble with AI.

With continually improving artificial intelligence (AI) technology, system designers will face the design tradeoff of adding more sensors to achieve specific design objectives or using AI instead. A good example is a smart elevator. Today’s elevators have several sensors in their design. One of the key features of smart elevators starts with traffic analysis and […]

Help wanted: AI-enabled manufacturer seeking intelligent people and robots Technology is no substitute for talent, but when you lose skilled labor and neglect to nurture a pipeline, technology solutions can help bridge the gap. Most industry reports published within the past few years indicate that manufacturers worldwide are prioritizing upskilling and reskilling their current workforce,…
