Physical AI Explained: Connecting AI Decisions to Machines and Robotics.
What is Physical AI? Physical AI is a technology that allows intelligence and AI to be applied in the physical world. This means decisions made by AI can be performed in the real world. How does it work? Physical AI can have 4 stages: Identification – Technology (RFID, BLE, UWB, Computer Vision) is
Physical AI is a technology that allows intelligence and AI to be applied in the physical world.
This means decisions made by AI can be performed in the real world.
Identification – Technology (RFID, BLE, UWB, Computer Vision) is used to identify assets, equipment and locations.
Sensing – Sensors provide insight into equipment and environments.
Decision – The data is analysed using AI to find issues, forecasting and recommendations.
Action – Authorized commands are sent to machines, controllers, actuators or robots.
Real world applications of this technology include:
The Physical actions are not just recommendations like normal software. This means you need to ensure the system has:
Aperture Venture Studio are experimenting with this technology through our Physical AI and AIoT engine architecture.
Physical AI provides new opportunities to developers and industries to connect intelligent software to real world systems.
