AIoT Non-intrusive Connect

Non-intrusive data extraction with AIoT Non-intrusive data extraction refers to a method of collecting information from a system or process without physically disrupting or altering the operation of that system. In the context of industrial processes, such as manufacturing or automation, data extraction is essential for monitoring and optimizing performance. Traditional methods of data extraction often involve intrusive measures, such as installing additional sensors or modules with wiring, which can be time-consuming and may interrupt the normal functioning of the system. In the non-intrusive approach, the data is collected without the need for physical interference or modifications to the existing infrastructure. Instead, visual data or images from the system's indicators or displays are used. These visual inputs are then processed using artificial intelligence (AI) and other technologies to extract relevant information. This method eliminates the need for additional cabling, termination, or the installation of extra sensors. Non-intrusive data extraction is often considered more cost-effective and efficient compared to intrusive methods, as it minimizes...

RTD sensors as Industrial IOT sensor -Vision AI OCR applications

by editor Comment Closed
Vision AI on digital Display in Sembang AIoT live Channel The extended presentation of "Sembang AIoT" commenced with a focus on Vision AI OCR. In this context, digital meters served as a primary data source for the AI OCR engine, facilitating the extraction of text from various meter types and indicators.Furthermore, the discussion revolved around the concept of non-intrusive data extraction, prompting a recollection of our initial non-intrusive data extraction kits, which were showcased at an IoT summit event in Penang hosted by Intel Malaysia. During this demonstration, we exhibited non-intrusive data extraction using an industrial ebox IPC system to intercept VGA output from simulated machine data. Subsequently, video content was captured and extracted using an OCR engine running on the ebox IPC, as depicted in the accompanying image. Additional visual material can be found on our parent company Axiomtek Malaysia's  Facebook page by searching for "non-intrusive."The live demonstration proceeded to encompass a new array of meters and indicators, referred to...
