Q4

We read about autonomy in the context of vehicles, airplanes, and drones, But in an autonomous factory, what does that future factory look like?

14:07

Q5

What are the many different layers that really need to be there? The foundational layers that will help modernize, at least move toward that autonomous factory?

17:08

Q6

Two other points that are so important to us when we look at optimizing a manufacturing environment are prevention and prediction. Talk to us about that.

19:42

Q7

You will have the ability to simulate, to make these data-driven decisions, and then have an automated environment to act on those. Is that how you see it?

22:42

Q8

What do you see as the increasing role and importance of edge computing?

25:23

Q9
