AI & Ambient IoT
Ambient IoT and AI are increasingly symbiotic technologies. Ambient IoT generates vast amounts of data about trillions of everyday things, and AI can uniquely make sense of all that data. From supplier to sale, AI can holistically review how products are handled and instantly adapt to any deviation or shift in the supply chain to avoid costly disruptions and meet customer demands.
On the flipside, AI learns by analyzing vast amounts of data. To a real extent, that data has so far been finite, but ambient IoT presents massive new physical world datasets that can be used to describe and optimize the movement and quality of products, materials, supply chains, and everything connected to the internet.
AI's New Data Source: Ambient IoT
Wiliot’s Ambient Intelligence Platform utilizes IoT Pixels—tiny, battery-free compute devices that attach to products, packaging, and other assets. These compute devices continuously transmit data such as location, temperature, and humidity to the Wiliot Platform, where it is analyzed in real-time.
Wiliot-developed AI and machine-learning algorithms can then identify supply chain “events” and automatically generate alerts or AI responses that allow business to course-correct or optimize their operations, like when sensing that shipments of produce or pharmaceuticals have been handled at unsafe temperatures.
AI in Supply Chains
The integration of AI and ambient IoT marks a significant leap forward in supply chain management. By feeding AI with real-time data, it enables predictive analytics, automated decision-making, and enhanced operational efficiency.
Whether it's forecasting supply chain disruptions, optimizing inventory levels, or improving ESG reporting, AI helps businesses stay ahead in a competitive market.
WiliBot™
Wiliot has long been a pioneer in artificial intelligence and machine learning for deriving insights from ambient IoT data. As more companies have begun rolling out Wiliot’s Ambient Intelligence Platform, we’ve been asked how Generative AI capabilities might make the transformation even easier. Our answer is WiliBot™, the real-world combination of ambient IoT and AI.
WiliBot™ opens a new frontier in how businesses interact with their products and operations. This tool allows users to ask questions about their products in natural language, gaining real-time insights into manufacturing details, shipping conditions, carbon footprints, and more. WiliBot™ not only makes supply chain data more accessible but also empowers businesses to take proactive measures based on real-time information, transforming how they operate and strategize.
What if your products could talk?
Now they can, in natural language, thanks to GenAI and ambient IoT. Check out how WiliBot™, the first of its kind, helps you ask questions directly to a product, a shipment, or even about your entire operation.
