Application Logic
Description
List all the remote control and self-guide scenarios.
Based on these scenarios, decide what sensors to install and where, as well as the type of sensors to be deployed.
Edge + 5G to be used for all time critical (real-time) events.
Minimum camera image quality of 720p.
Description
All collected data from edge sensors will be stored long-term in Enterprise storage.
Development of the ML model is done through an iterative process. A quality ML model (fully data-driven) will require multiple steps to be able to perform intelligently.
Models will be stored and maintained by AI applications.
SME and data scientists to develop the models. It will require time to achieve an appropriate quality level.
Description
The process from data collection to execution of models is fully automated.
Vehicles will be able to make decisions such as to stop, pause or move through guided pathways.
Vehicles will be able to perform more complex detection and navigation based on AI model improvements.
Operations will be alerted when needed.
Expected benefits
IGVs will enable vehicles to operate autonomously, dynamically adapting to changes in their pathway
Increase productivity through longer operational hours a day
Key value created
Increased productivity and reduced dependencies on labour
