TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Toshiba Corporation (TOKYO:6502) will be at CeBIT 2017, and looking to the future to demonstrate how its extensive know-how IoT and AI will contribute to solutions in energy, industry and society. CeBIT, the world’s largest exhibition for digital business, will take place in Hannover, Germany over March 20 to March 24, and Toshiba will be in the Japan Pavilion at Hall 4, A38, (68), showcasing essential technologies under the theme of Create a New World with Japan - Society 5.0 Another Perspective -.
Main exhibits
1. SPINEX
– Toshiba’s IoT architecture
The main exhibit will spotlight
SPINEX, a Toshiba-developed IoT architecture that fuses know-how the
company has cultivated in its industrial businesses over the long term.
SPINEX has three main features: Edge Computing that intelligently
performs data processing to improve time to action; Digital Twin that
digitally reproduces the actual operating status of things in real time
for accurate emulation and simulation; and Media Intelligence that
integrates image and speech recognition technologies for recognizing
human intentions.
2. IoT solutions for energy
Toshiba will also highlight how its
longstanding experience in power generation and infrastructure systems
contributes to products and solutions that apply IoT technology in such
areas as remote monitoring and control. This will include the “virtual
power plants” demonstration initiative, a demonstration of how bringing
Toshiba’s highly
reliable rechargeable batteries, SCiB™ into the grid can realize
advanced energy management capabilities, including demand response and
integration of renewable energy sources.
3. Industrial applications of IoT and AI
Toshiba fully understands
power of IoT and AI
in the industrial field —such as applying deep learning to clearing
bottlenecks and error-checking at Yokkaichi Operations, Toshiba’s
world-leading facility for NAND flash memories. Another display will
show how the first deep learning testbed approved by the Industrial
Internet Community is improving facility management at Toshiba’s Smart
Community Center in Kawasaki, Japan.
4. AI application in the sports field
Recognizing that deep
learning has potential in many areas, Toshiba has introduced it to a media-intelligence
image and speech recognition system for application in sports. This
technology can track the ball and players in both teams and
automatically detect and track their movements, using only from video
data, without any need for specific camera and sensors. It can be used
live, during games, to assist developing offensive and defensive
strategy. Toshiba further plans to fine its analyzing technology.
