2. See the entire
operation at a glance
When all data is integrated, customers will be able to better
understand cause and effect and links between plan
utilization, yield, risks, gaps in achieving business goals, etc.
System of Systems
Autonomy extends well beyond boundaries we
know today.
Symbiosis between industry and society
Digital Twin with AI/ML
capability as advisor
Digital twins with AI/ML Analytics will be used
across the asset lifecycle, allowing customers to
plan, design, operate, and maintain their assets in
more optimal ways using “what if” scenario testing
and virtualization.
New ways to
perform inspections
Drones and robots will be able to inspect and repair
equipment in remote locations and extreme environments.
See the unseen
Even in production line that undergoes regular inspections, unexpected pitfalls may be lurking. By using AI to
analyze data from many sensors, it will be possible to estimate deterioration, issue warnings, and identify causes.
How We See the Near Future...
Japan wants to create, in its own words, a “super-smart” society, and
one that will serve as a road map for the rest of the world.
