Joining us this week is Richard Primeaux, Head of Product and Strategy, Hangar Technology.

About Hangar Technology

Hangar, headquartered in Austin, TX, with a mission to unify the full stack of software essential to power autonomous robotics-as-a-system. A platform to be implemented for the empowerment of an array of capital, construction, and infrastructure support industries–the industries that are a cornerstone of the world’s economy and constitute the largest single component of the USA’s GDP.

Today, Hangar is a foremost leader in this promising transformation fueled by advances in mobile robotics, machine learning, and artificial intelligence that are ushering in a new age of autonomicity — and most likely a whole new computer epoch; one where mobile cognitive machines match, outperform or enhance human performance in a range of work activities—the “Cognitive Era.”

  • Cars are the wrong choice for autonomous vehicles – test out on autonomous drones for infrastructure projects (e.g. new buildings, cell towers, …)
  • Mission plans delivered to drone for execution as a robot
  • What is a robot? Difficult – Dangerous – High Degree of Repeatability – Dull Tasks
  • Robot is controlled from program that is run independent of a controller
  • 4-D visual insights delivered to customers
  • Robotics as a System ~ requires a great deal of components for success; not just electronics

Joining us this week is Simon Crosby, CTO at SWIM.AI. Simon discusses the architecture for Edge and its differences from existing cloud infrastructure and how the SWIM.AI solution meets the needs for Edge services.

 

 

 

 

Highlights

  • Challenges in Edge
  • Data is Complete Disruption in Current Models
  • Don’t Train in Cloud for Edge; Instead Learn on Fly
  • All About Data – Apps can’t be Written for Data Specifically
  • Example of Sensor Model at Traffic Light in Self-Learning Model
  • Digital Twin Concept & Actor Model
  • AI Innovation ~ always as though its local
  • Independent Management of Latency and Resource Utilization
  • Write the Program from the Data
  • Example of Manufacturer with Millions of RFID Tags
  • Limitations of Having People Involved in Everything

Topic                                                                                   Time (Minutes.Seconds)

Introduction                                                                         0.0 – 1.55
Why is Edge a hard problem?                                          1.55 – 4.51
Local action is a concern (e.g. Palo Alto traffic lights)   4.51 – 8.12
Edge is served by Moore’s Law                                        8.12 – 9.07
Training problem solved by cloud is mistake                9.07 – 11.00 (Cloudcast Podcast)
Self-Training Edge infrastructure                                     11.00 – 16.03
Constrained problem set for data                                    16.03 – 17.42
Traffic Light example in detail from sensors                  17.42 – 18.48 (smartcity.swim.ai)
Digital twin concept                                                           18.48 – 20.19
Actor Model                                                                         20.19 – 24.33
Key Innovation in SWIM.AI                                                 24.33 – 27.55
Latency and resource utilization matter in Edge           27.55 – 31.03
What does a program look like in this model?              31.03 – 33.15
Building APIs on top of data stream                                33.15 – 37.04
Example of Manufacturer with RFID Tags                      37.04 – 42.55
Modeling everything by a person is not possible         42.55 – 44.23
Influence of analytics in SWIM.AI                                    44.23 – 46.39
Wrap Up                                                                               46.39 – END
