Latest News Headlines in Data Sphere: The Top Trends in Information Circulation
In the ever-evolving world of technology, artificial intelligence (AI) is making significant strides in various sectors, improving safety, efficiency, and sustainability. Here's a roundup of some remarkable AI advancements shaping our world.
Firstly, Bigmate's AI system is revolutionising workplaces by detecting potential hazards such as materials spontaneously combusting, equipment overheating, and workplace fires. This proactive approach has led to a 22 percent decrease in unsafe incidents in one Singaporean factory. The system analyses images from cameras and data from sensors, and its computer vision capabilities allow it to calculate the depth, position, and distance of an object to prevent collisions between humans and heavy machinery.
Across the ocean, SoftBank completed the sale of robots for restaurants in Singapore in 2020. This move signifies the growing acceptance and integration of robots in our daily lives.
In Australia, a collaborative effort between researchers from the Victorian Institute of Forensic Medicine, Monash University, and Leidos Holding is underway to develop an incision-free autopsy method using augmented reality. This groundbreaking development could revolutionise the field of forensic medicine.
Flock Freight, a Californian freight technology company, is reducing carbon emissions by using machine learning to combine shipments of freight trucks. This innovative approach streamlines the logistics industry, making it more environmentally friendly.
Telenor, a Norwegian telecommunications company, has developed an application that helps fish farmers understand salmon feeding behaviour using neural networks. The AI system analyses images captured by underwater cameras for signals that fish are no longer hungry, aiding in more efficient and sustainable farming practices. Remarkably, the system can identify salmon that have been cleaned too much with 96 percent accuracy.
Lastly, researchers at the University of Minnesota have developed an AI algorithm that can identify possible COVID-19 cases from abnormal lung patterns in chest x-rays. This could potentially revolutionise diagnostic processes and lead to earlier detection of the virus.
These examples demonstrate the transformative power of AI in various industries, from workplace safety to environmental sustainability, and even medical diagnostics. As these technologies continue to evolve, we can expect to see even more innovative applications in the future.
