How 5G-enabled digital solutions can help

Make an inventory of tasks and determine what data to be collected to take out many of these tasks using AI.


Data flow

Step 1: Devices

Step 1: Devices More Information
  • We will know what type of sensors to focus on once we know the tasks at hand

Step 2: Connectivity

Step 2: Connectivity More Information
  • Data sent to Enterprise store

Step 3: Edge Compute

Step 3: Edge Compute More Information
  • Not required for real-time intervention, but this is expected to change

Step 4: Cloud Compute & Storage

Step 4: Cloud Compute & Storage More Information
  • Equipment data stored to train AI algorithms
  • All data in Enterprise store

Step 5: Applications & Services

Step 5: Applications & Services More Information
  • Type of models still to be determined
  • Maybe NLP gets information out of large documentation sets.

Application logic

Scenario 1


  • Create an overview of the main tasks of a lecturer.
  • Look at all tasks and determine how ML / MV / NLP can help execute or simplify these tasks. Start tasks where AI can make most of the impact.
  • Based on this list, determine if/what data is needed to be able to use this as input for these models.
  • We need SMEs and data scientists to develop and enhance these models.
  • Reach out to a number of universities to see if / what tooling they are using in this space.

How 5G-enabled digital solutions can help

Looking at various types of data (results; environment; personal; etc.) and determine how XR (VR/AR) can improve the student experience.


Data flow

Step 1: Devices

Step 1: Devices More Information
  • Look at the type of data that is important to collect to know if/what sensors to use
  • If / what streaming analysis can be used

Step 2: Connectivity

Step 2: Connectivity More Information
  • Sensor data transport
  • Other relevant data

Step 3: Edge Compute

Step 3: Edge Compute More Information
  • Not required for real-time, but this is expected to change

Step 4: Cloud Compute & Storage

Step 4: Cloud Compute & Storage More Information
  • Equipment data stored to train AI algorithms
  • All data in Enterprise store

Step 5: Applications & Services

Step 5: Applications & Services More Information
  • OpenXR as the standard platform to be used
  • Type of models to be curated based on applications and services

Application logic

Scenario 1


  • Using the OpenXR XR platform we can support a broad spectrum of these devices: Separate contents from direct device choice.

How 5G-enabled digital solutions can help

Using 5G and AI against data collected to predict early issues that could potentially lead to students dropping out.


Data flow

Step 1: Devices

Step 1: Devices More Information
  • List the data sources/types of importance to follow student progress
  • Based on that, determine if/what sensors to be used

Step 2: Connectivity

Step 2: Connectivity More Information
  • Sensor-initiated data to Enterprise store

Step 3: Edge Compute

Step 3: Edge Compute More Information
  • Not required for real-time intervention, but this is expected to change

Step 4: Cloud Compute & Storage

Step 4: Cloud Compute & Storage More Information
  • All edge data collected to be loaded in Enterprise store
  • All data in Enterprise store

Step 5: Applications & Services

Step 5: Applications & Services More Information
  • Types of models to be curated based on applications and services
  • However, they will most likely be ML-driven
  • First applications are coming to the market to manage this. 

Application logic

Scenario 1


  • Make all data about students available:
  • What is relevant data?
  • What other info will give info about this? Is there data external to the school, etc.

Scenario 2


  • Based on the answers in the previous column we can decide if/what the AI (ML / MV) models will be.
  • Identify the signs (in data terms) which could identify students going to drop out.
  • Using SMEs and data scientists to get to the appropriate models for this; This will take several steps due to the new nature of this.
  • Therefore, do implement but early results will be poor.

Scenario 3


  • As stated, we need to be ready for each type of model.
  • Given that we will collect data about results, etc. the focus will be ML driven.
  • However if we develop data about student faces whilst studying, then it will be MV-based

Expected benefits

  • Higher success rate of students in completing their academic qualification.

Cross-industry solutions

Autonomous robots and aerial drones can traverse harsh and dangerous environments and reduce hazard risks for human workers. Such technology will provide enhanced monitoring and safety upkeep for facilities. They can be fitted with various sensors geared towards the purpose they are meant for and by using 5G, we can deploy them in real-time whereby the data collected can be sent directly to an AI application for investigation and immediate further action.

Wearable technology allows security and medical personnel to conduct background and health checks efficiently. Of course, they have a much broader focus and can be used in many different industries where clothing has been enriched with wearable technologies. Wearables are also able to collect extra information for a 5G-enabled digital service.

Sensors are crucial for capturing real-time data and insights and pave the way for more informed decision-making. Sensors will be the data collection point for every 5G-enabled digital service and therefore will have to cover a broad spectrum of types of information to be collected and the way they are connected to the DNB 5G network.

XR is set to take work and play to the next level with cutting edge technology never seen before. These devices have the potential to boost productivity and enhance entertainment, changing the way we experience our reality through digital transformation. There is an increasing broad spectrum of devices available for both consumer and enterprise markets, making it increasingly important for each user experience.
