Are We Nearing the End of the Edge vs. Cloud Debate for Smart Robots?

June 27, 2025 by Sam Francis

Robots have evolved from isolated, pre-programmed units to intelligent, connected collaborators.

In this new era, one of the biggest questions that engineers, technologists, and robot operators continue to grapple with is: Are we nearing the end of the edge vs. cloud debate for smart robots?

For the longest time, robot design and deployment came down to choosing between edge processing – relying on local hardware for computational needs – and cloud processing, which taps into remote servers for greater data storage and AI capabilities.

AI-Driven Tool Wear Detection in Precision Milling

June 17, 2025 by Sam Francis

Tool wear is a predominant aspect in precision milling environments that affects accuracy, surface finish, and cost efficiency.

Tool wear detection systems have previously utilized AI-based approaches, enabling real-time insights into sensor data streams comprising vibration, acoustic emissions, and spindle load variations.

Scrap and rework are also minimized as these systems enable proactive changes of tools before a drop in performance can be noticed. [Read more…] about AI-Driven Tool Wear Detection in Precision Milling

Navigating the ‘messy middle’: Safety and compliance considerations for autonomous fleet transition

June 6, 2025 by Sam Francis

By Glen Mitchell, head of product management, Powerfleet

The transformation from traditional driver-operated trucks to fully autonomous vehicles isn’t happening overnight.

Instead, fleet operators find themselves navigating what industry experts call the “messy middle” – a complex transition period where human drivers, semi-autonomous systems, and emerging regulations intersect in unpredictable ways.

Recent milestones underscore the rapid evolution of this landscape. Aurora Innovation launched America’s first commercial driverless truck operations on Texas highways in May 2025, completing over 1,200 miles without a safety driver.

How to establish a continuous production system

October 21, 2021 by Liv

Continuous production is one of three production system options, the other two being jobbing and batch production.

Continuous production is distinguished by completing products in one physical location, in a series of continuous operations, using raw materials or subassemblies as inputs.

Depending on whether the continuous process consists of mass, process, or assembly production types, outputs will consist of either one standardized product, different products from different stages of the manufacturing process, or completed products from sub-assemblies.

NXP and Microsoft demonstrate edge-to-cloud machine learning solution for predictive maintenance

May 8, 2019 by David Edwards

NXP Semiconductors has agreed a collaboration with Microsoft to bring artificial intelligence and machine learning capabilities for anomaly detection to Azure internet of things users.

By combining complementary strengths – NXP’s offline machine learning capability and embedded processing with Microsoft’s cloud expertise – the two companies jointly demonstrates a new Anomaly Detection Solution for Azure IoT at Microsoft Build in Seattle recently.

The solution consists of a small form factor, low power system-on-module powered by NXP’s i.MX RT106C Crossover Processors, a full suite of sensors, and an associated Anomaly Detection Toolbox.
