• Autonomous Manufacturing Comes to Life at the Intel 5G and IOT Innovation Center No matter how fast or precisely they move, industrial robots only adapt as quickly as people can program them. Modified product specs, process improvements, customized orders—small changes like these add up to big costs whenever human intervention is required. Artificial intelligence (AI) will revolutionize industrial automation for this reason. But it’s only possible with high-capacity, ultra-low-latency technology that can connect...

• 3 Ways to Remove Information Highway Roadblocks with 5G Standards-Based Technologies There’s no doubt about it. The information ‘superhighway’ is becoming increasingly congested and data capacity is a global challenge. World wide mobile data traffic grew 63 percent in 2016, reaching 7.2 exabytes per month. To put that in context, that number is roughly 8,000 times that of 10 years ago, and almost 800 million times that of 15 years past....

• Turning Density into Opportunity: 5G in Asia Density. When you mention the word density in relationship to 5G, it almost always refers to the network. But when mentioned in the context of Asia, the word “density” takes on a whole new meaning. The GSMA predicts that Asia will lead in the development of mobile 5G, attributing the region’s expected success to supportive (even bullish) governments; early movement...
