…the Silicon Valley. Many keynote presentations revolve around upcoming 5G connection. Some speakers express concerns that the U.S. is not doing enough to adopt and implement 5G, losing an edge in the global tech competition. Others point out 5G's disruptive potentials in autonomous vehicle development. The data-driven IoT products may also lead to consumers expecting product makers to anticipate their preferences and behaviors. One-Click VR from Luxion KeyShot Luxion has just released KeyShot VR, described as the one-click VR solution targeting designers. The renderer now offers a way to transfer rendered scenes from KeyShot to KeyVR format, ready for VR…

…The Next Generation of Wireless Technology is Here (almost) 5G is set to enhance connectivity across networks. This is especially important as the number of Internet of Things (IoT) devices rises, along with the amount of data they generate. The technology will enable faster data transfer speeds (from 4G’s 1Gbps to 10Gbps). As a result, 5G creates a tremendous opportunity for numerous industries but also sets the stage for large-scale disruption. Major 5G network deployments are expected by 2020, and a projected 4.1B IoT cellular connections will use 5G worldwide by 2024, according to Ericsson. From supply chain management, transportation…

…evolving its digital industrial infrastructure by deploying a commercial 5G-Advanced flexible production line that features ultra-high reliability and ultra-low latency. The Baoding Automation Technology Branch of Exquisite Automotive (EA) deploy is rolling out the 5G-Advanced equipment for a car roof production line. Traditional industrial control relies on wired networks to realize the serial connection and control of terminal equipment. However, after a certain period of operations, wire abrasion in mobile application scenarios, including robot arms, slide units, and swiveling tables, often results in production interruptions, causing an average of about 60 hours of downtime a year. 5G-Advanced networks provide ultra-high…

…on service industries, but also on manufacturing enterprises, including 5G infrastructure vendors. Despite the current ongoing discussion on OpenRAN and open networks, most advanced 5G networks still rely on Tier One infrastructure vendors and their supply chain has been disrupted. The shortages of component manufacturing and/or network workforce deployment, such as integration engineers, are the main reasons of this disruption. These disruptions will cause 2020 5G network infrastructure revenue to fall as much as 10% of the forecasted US$2.1 billion, states global tech market advisory firm, ABI Research. “The current virus outbreak will likely delay the deployment of advanced 5G…
