 Manufacturing plants, offshore platforms, and vessels generate critical operational data but often lack reliable connectivity for cloud-based AI solutions. This session explores how deploying intelligent systems directly at remote locations enables immediate decision support, reduces operational costs, and maintains business continuity regardless of network availability. Learn how industrial operators and maritime crews are using on-site AI to diagnose equipment issues, optimize processes, and access expert knowledge instantly—transforming isolated assets into autonomous, intelligent operations. We'll examine real-world deployments where local AI capabilities have prevented production losses, reduced satellite communication costs, and enabled 24/7 operational intelligence without cloud dependency.
