The convergence of the Internet of Things (IoT) and artificial intelligence (AI) creates huge potential for various industries around the world. Internet of Things applications are proliferating, and it is expected that there will be as many as 50 billion connected devices by the end of this year. Combined with artificial intelligence, this new wave of technology can bring new opportunities that will change the way entire industries operate. Here are the top five emerging AI IoT applications:
energy management
IoT and artificial intelligence can play a role in reducing energy consumption. HVAC systems account for a large portion of a building’s total energy consumption and represent a large portion of any industry. Machine learning programs that learn from past efficiencies have been shown to reduce energy consumption by 20%.
Smart street lights equipped with IoT sensors collect data about traffic and pedestrians, allowing the system to save up to 80% on energy bills. Artificial intelligence capabilities, as well as machine learning and deep learning algorithms, parse data generated from IoT sensors to track real-time energy consumption.
Pilote automatique
Autonomous driving has always captured the imagination, but this is a great example of how artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things can work together. Self-driving cars are equipped with sensors that constantly collect large amounts of data about their surroundings. This data is processed into intelligent insights using artificial intelligence models, allowing vehicle navigation systems to coordinate with their surroundings and perform complex path planning in real time.
medical insurance
With the outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic, the integration of IoT and artificial intelligence has attracted great attention to meet the needs of intelligent health monitoring and pandemic management.
Wearable IoT sensors can track patients’ vital signs and provide real-time updates to doctors and caregivers to alert them of any major health events. Artificial intelligence with machine learning algorithms can analyze large amounts of data to provide important insights into people’s overall health. This eliminates the need for any manual intervention to maintain records and frees up medical staff to focus on more important tasks. With the outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic, the integration of IoT and artificial intelligence has received widespread attention to meet the needs of intelligent health monitoring and pandemic management.
Optical inspection
Quality inspection powered by computer vision is one of the largest applications of artificial intelligence. Automated optical inspection scans industrial machinery for quality defects, and once a defect is identified, a semi-supervised machine learning algorithm model classifies the image into a fault category or predicts scheduled maintenance.
AI-based IoT solutions provide businesses with predictive maintenance applications to predict equipment failures in advance.
cyber security
According to relevant data, by 2020, 20 billion IoT devices will be connected. It is predicted that by 2030, approximately 50 billion IoT devices will be installed around the world. This ubiquity will make them an attractive target for attackers.
As a countermeasure, AI-powered cybersecurity systems can detect network vulnerabilities, protect valuable data, and thwart cyberattacks. AI systems can learn common patterns of activity and determine when unusual activity occurs, which can reduce the frequency of false alarms and can reveal cyberattacks in progress.
In short, demand for intelligent IoT will continue to grow across industries. Augmenting the IoT with artificial intelligence has the potential to open up opportunities for innovation. Machine learning, natural language processing (NLP) and other disruptive technologies encourage an acceleration of interactions between businesses. Artificial Intelligence IoT continues to drive the development of data processing and intelligent business and will continue to play a role in the coming years.
