Big Data

Big data
Big data is disrupting a lot of industries. Banks and other organisations are using big
data to understand consumer behavior in a bid to serve customers better. Big data is
helping industries to manage resources better and helping workers to complete tasks
faster. Shopping trends are now predictable, and retailers can make better
recommendations to customers based on these trends.
Research has been made better through big data, and millions of data can be searched
or sifted in mere seconds. Patterns are now found in the most bizarre things, and lots
of companies are using these patterns to make predictions. Adverts now target
customers more effectively.
The means by which we capture data and store it is changing by the day. The even
more complex and daunting tasks are how to sift through it and how to identify the
relevant bits for different applications. New standards in search, sharing, transfer,
visualization, querying, updating and information privacy are emerging as a result. To
keep up with the data, rather than being mired in it, manufacturers will need to adopt
more robust technologies than traditional data processing software, which is where
specialized ERP solutions give your business the critical edge it needs to succeed.
Image recognition
Image recognition is helping industry sectors to advance in numerous ways. Industries

now use image recognition for facial recognition, surveillance, video analysis, driverless
vehicles, augmented reality (AR) etc. For example, in the fashion industry, there are
now apps that can capture images of people and give more information about the
clothes those people are wearing.
The person can then decide to purchase the clothing items from online stores. People
can point the camera of their smartphones to objects and purchase these objects
online. Hotels and others in the hospitality section can now identify guests as they
walk into their premises. This will help them improve their customer service.
Artificial Intelligence
Artificial intelligence is rapidly becoming the core foundation of the Cloud-Platform-as-

a-Service model being offered by ‘mega vendors’ to their customers. This trend is
emerging in the cloud space, and as a result, it is going to become increasingly easy for
organisations to adopt forms of artificial intelligence.
Businesses are going to need to start leveraging AI to cope with the ever-expanding
volume of data generated by trends, such as the Internet of Things. But there are
challenges. And organisations need to have a note of caution around how they adopt
AI.
Commonly the subject of doomsday scenario horror films, AI is nothing to discount as

the stuff of science fiction gone wrong. The technology is already in our daily lives in
the form of self-driving cars and industrial robotics. In manufacturing applications, the
technology will become the new standard by which large sets of data are analyzed and
predictive maintenance is undergone. In short, companies will have no choice but to
“go digital” in order to survive.
The Cloud
In many circles, the cloud is considered a four-letter word. The technology is new and
traditional operators across industries are skeptical of its intangible nature. The data in
the cloud is stored via the internet. It is not stored locally and can’t be monitored,
stored, and secured using traditional methods. That being said, Cloud-based
technology is how the companies of the future will operate as it allows in-house users
and remote workforces to collaborate in real-time more effectively than with
traditional data systems. The cloud approach is faster, improves manageability and
reduces maintenance.
Cybersecurity
As more and more operations move toward cloud-based solutions and rely more
heavily on a robotic workforce, maintaining the security and integrity of these systems
becomes a much larger issue. In fact, cybersecurity in the manufacturing sector is
listed as the highest priority of the National Association of Manufacturers. Industrial
control systems are among the most sensitive targets, which is the class of computers
that help to manage the shop floor. As more manufacturers simultaneously build and
integrate their systems through the industrial Internet of Things, more opportunities
for threats emerge.
Virtual reality (VR)/Augmented reality (AR) - Simulation
Virtual reality has now become much more than an entertainment device. Companies
are now using VR technology in various ways. In the real estate industry, some
companies have VR solutions that allow potential home buyers walk through every
aspect of a home and see every detail of the home right from their living room couch.
Some fashion retailers now have VR solutions in their stores that allow people try on
clothes virtually without needing to put the clothes on in the real world.
Simulations will be used more extensively in plant operations to leverage real-time

data and mirror the physical world in a virtual model, which can include machines,
products, and humans. This will allow operators to test and optimize the machine
settings for the next product in line in the virtual world before the physical
changeover, thereby driving down machine setup times and increasing quality.
Augmented-reality-based systems support a variety of services, such as selecting parts

in a warehouse and sending repair instructions over mobile devices. These systems are
currently in their infancy, but in the future, companies will make much broader use of
augmented reality to provide workers with real-time information to improve decision
making and work procedures.
No princípio, a RA era empregada principalmente pelos segmentos de entretenimento

e jogos. Atualmente, ela tem sido integrada a ações de diversas outras áreas.
Em um processo simples de uma equipe de desenvolvimento, um produto virtual pode

ser partilhado entre departamentos, que por sua vez poderão visualizá-lo antes
mesmo de iniciar a sua fabricação ou a produção do protótipo. Essa mesma tecnologia
que ajuda a equipe de desenvolvimento, também auxilia o cliente a ver o produto
mesmo quando não é possível uma demonstração ao vivo ou quando não existe em
estoque.
Da mesma forma, no processo de manutenção de máquinas industriais, o

operador pode processar as instruções diretamente, visualizando as peças que estão
danificadas acelerando o processo. Tudo isto reduz o tempo de inatividade das
máquinas e melhora o serviço ao cliente.
Em algumas empresas a consulta de manuais e procedimentos operacionais, antes um

processo lento e trabalhoso, agora é feita apenas através de um aplicativo e
escanceando o conteúdo. O app mostra o passo a passo sobre como trocar uma peça
por meio de animações que aparecem na tela demonstrando como fazer. O que antes
necessitava de papel ou planilha, agora basta tirar uma foto para registrar, a médio
prazo essa evolução representa uma redução de custos considerável e ganhos na
produtividade.
Outra aplicabilidade da tecnologia é na área de treinamento de funcionários, através

de um especialista remoto. Se um operador tiver dificuldade no conserto de uma
máquina, ele usa óculos especiais de realidade aumentada para se tornar os olhos de
um profissional que está em outra planta.
Nos Estados Unidos já existem industrias que incorporaram estas tecnologias nos
processos de montagem de turbinas eólicas. Os aplicativos desenvolvidos incluem
produção e montagens complexas, reparos, manutenção e gestão de logística, em uma
destas os funcionários utilizam os óculos inteligentes para receber novos pedidos e
atendê-los diretamente no dispositivo, além de serem direcionados até a área e
prateleira certas do estoque para que localizem cada item do pedido.
