When you have easy access to services like healthcare, it’s easy to take them for granted. But rural areas all over the globe struggle to secure quality healthcare services. Due to a shortage of healthcare professionals and resources, extensive travel distances, and infrastructure limitations, many rural communities find themselves in an unfortunate position. But it doesn’t have to be this way. Digital health solutions have made significant progress in recent years, allowing rural areas to overcome these challenges and ensure patients receive top-tier healthcare regardless of their location.
In this podcast, we discuss the many benefits of digital health solutions for rural communities, as well as some of the challenges that need to be addressed to ensure the accessibility and effectiveness of these technologies. We also hear from experts about how digital health is used around the world to reshape the healthcare landscape.

IoT has permeated nearly every industry as businesses seek better access and insights into data and operations. But not all IoT devices are well suited for the rugged and sometimes harsh environments they are needed in—both outdoor and indoor. For example, a business that wants to deploy an IoT device in the field to monitor assets and detect anomalies must consider factors like the range of weather conditions and temperatures that the device may encounter.
Fortunately, recent advancements in technology have made it easier to develop ruggedized industrial IoT devices that can reliably and efficiently operate in harsh environments. In this podcast, we will explore the recent advancements that have made rugged IoT a reality, the types of environmental concerns and risks that these devices must withstand, and the best approach for implementing rugged IoT devices in the field.

Location intelligence is already a part of our everyday lives, from using our phones to get directions to finding a nearby restaurant. But businesses now are starting to see the transformative potential of location intelligence.
In fact, 95% of businesses now consider location intelligence to be essential, thanks to its ability to lower costs, improve customer experience, and enhance operations. But many businesses struggle to get the most out of their location data because it's often siloed in different departments or systems.
AI and digital twins can help businesses to break down data silos and create a single, comprehensive view of their spaces in real time. AI can be used to analyze large volumes of location data and identify patterns and trends. Digital twins are virtual replicas of real-world objects or environments that can be used to track and monitor changes over time.
In this podcast, we discuss the importance of location intelligence, the use of AI and digital twins for tracking and monitoring, and how to implement AI-powered tracking and monitoring safely and securely.

Edge computing is quickly becoming known for its ability to improve business operations by reducing latency, delivering high performance, and providing real-time insights. But despite its promise, many businesses—especially in the industrial space—struggle to successfully adopt edge computing.
One challenge is that industrial edge computing can be complex to scale. While it is relatively easy to get started with a few edge devices, managing a large-scale edge computing infrastructure can be daunting. Additionally, lack of a single edge computing standard can make it difficult to integrate edge devices and applications from different vendors.
To overcome these challenges, businesses need to take a strategic approach to edge computing adoption. This includes carefully planning their edge computing architecture, selecting the right edge devices and applications, and implementing a robust management and orchestration framework.
In this podcast, we discuss the state of edge computing across different environments, how businesses can successfully approach edge computing, key challenges and how to solve them, and what the future holds for edge computing in this space.

There is a common misconception that AI will become an intrusive part of our everyday lives—but it’s actually quite the opposite. The reality is that AI has the potential to enhance everyday life in many ways that we may not even notice. For example, AI video analytics can be used in smart cities to monitor traffic flow, identify hazards, and help emergency responders quickly respond to incidents.
Of course, there are still concerns around security and privacy. But many companies are committed to implementing AI in a way that prioritizes user security.
In this podcast, we talk about the opportunities AI video analytics provide communities, real-world use of AI video analytics in smart cities, and how to successfully deploy these systems in a safe and secure way.

Are we in for an autonomous mobile robot (AMR) takeover? Not exactly. But we can expect to see more AMRs implemented across industries to streamline production, improve operations, enhance work safety, and increase productivity. That’s because recent technology advancements have made the hardware and software components necessary to building these systems more cost-effective and accessible. And with artificial intelligence becoming more mainstream, it’s now possible not only to create AMRs capable of doing human tasks but integrate them into human worker environments.
In this episode, we talk about how all this is possible today, what we can expect in the future, top applications and opportunities for industries, and all the ins and outs of developing, deploying, and implementing AMRs safely and securely.
