Nokia launches sensor fusion tool for industrial automation


Nokia has launched a new tool called MX Context which uses sensor fusion technology to deliver AI-powered contextual awareness in industrial settings.

MX Context is integrated into the Nokia Edge Compute and AI platform and is aimed at industrial businesses. It processes data from different sources in order to serve up real-time insights and automation, and Nokia claims it is the only solution that provides situational and contextual awareness available on the market.

Sensor fusion technology is described as integrating real-time data from multiple sources. The release cites MarketsandMarkets, which says the global sensor fusion market is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.8%, reaching USD $18 billion by 2028.

What Nokia terms as Operational Technology (OT) environments generate huge quantities of data from machine sensors, positioning systems, and worker-worn devices, however the increasing complexity of all this often creates isolated data silos, which limits enterprises contextual awareness, we’re told. The idea is industrial enterprises can use MX Context to “easily ingest, harmonize, and fuse sensor data to get real-time actionable insights and improve their operations.”

The tool also offers low-code visual development capabilities, enabling users to create workflows and design dashboards without needing to be a coding genius.

“AI is becoming a strategic element for Industry 4.0 transformation,” said Stephan Litjens, Vice President Enterprise Campus Edge Solutions, Cloud and Network Services at Nokia. “Nokia’s on-premise compute capabilities offer innovative AI solutions that are OT compliant and bring the contextual awareness needed for industrial use cases. Nokia MX Context harmonizes real-time data from sensors and sensing technologies. It takes data-driven operational excellence to the next level, transforming data into contextual awareness information that can be used as actionable insights and intelligent automation.”

Ryan Martin, Senior Research Director at ABI Research was drafted in to add: “Sensor fusion and AI are key capabilities for core industrial automation applications spanning robotics, autonomous work cells, and collaborative scenarios involving humans and machines. Nokia, with its private wireless and on-premise industrial edge compute, is well positioned to offer critical use cases for worker safety and tracking and positioning to bring the power of AI insights to industrial digitalization.”

Last year Nokia launched 6 new apps to its Nokia MX Industrial Edge (MXIE) platform, designed to do things like improve worker safety, site security, operational efficiency and secure OT environments in the manufacturing, mining, ports, and chemical industries.

Temperature Sensors

  Temperature Sensors: A temperature sensor is an electronic device that measures the temperature of its environment and converts the input data into electronic data to record, monitor, or signal temperature changes. There are many different types of temperature sensors. Some temperature sensors require   direct contact   with the physical object that is being monitored (contact temperature sensors), while others indirectly measure the temperature of an object (non-contact temperature sensors).   Non-contact temperature sensors are usually infrared (IR) sensors. They remotely detect the IR energy emitted by an object and send a signal to a calibrated electronic circuit that determines the object's temperature. Among the contact temperature sensors are  thermocouples and thermistors . A thermocouple is comprised of two conductors, each made of a different type of metal, that  are joined at an end  to ...

  What are Sensors, Detectors, and Transducers? Sensor/Detectors/Transducers are electrical, opto-electrical , or electronic devices composed of specialty electronics or otherwise sensitive materials , for determining if there is a presence of a particular entity or function. Many types of sensors , detectors, and transducers are available including those for detecting a physical presence such as flame , metals , leaks , levels, or gas and chemicals , among others. Some are designed to sense physical properties such as temperature, pressure, or radiation , while others can detect motion or proximity . They operate in a variety of manners depending on the application and may include electromagnetic fields, or optics, among others. Many applications over a wide range of industries use sensors, detectors, and transducers of many kinds to test, measure, and control various processes and machine functions. With the advent of the  Internet of Things (IoT) , the need for sensors...
