Industrial Servers Ramp Up AI for Robotic Arms
July 13, 2020 by
Ramping up AI technology holds the key to deploying robotic arms at-scale. This case study “Industrial Servers Ramp Up AI for Robotic Arms” from our friends over at Advantech explores the benefits of augmenting robotic arms with AI. It also explains how AI-ready industrial servers differ from a typical server found in a data center and looks at the partnership between Advantech and Micron for memory and storage powering AI in smart manufacturing.
