Telit Cinterion, an end-to-end IoT solutions enabler, has announced a technology collaboration with Nokia to provide mission-critical and heavy industries with a new generation of mission-critical communication and in-network compute capabilities. By integrating Telit Cinterion’s latest cellular, satellite and Wi-Fi communication modules with Nokia’s Cognitive Digital Mine (CDM) platform, oil/gas, logistics, mining and other industries now have powerful new options for minimising downtime and emissions while maximising worker safety and productivity.
Nokia’s award-winning CDM platform uses AI and digital twins to enable use cases such as edge computing that makes real-time decisions about vehicles and other equipment in the field. The heart of the CDM platform is the Black Box, a ruggedised compute and connectivity engine designed for extreme industrial environments. The Black Box uses AI for tasks such as dynamically bonding dual 5G links, switching across triple Wi-Fi radios, or falling back to satellite, all based on SLA requirements. This optimisation ensures that edge computing and other applications have the kind of ultra-resilient, high-performance connectivity for autonomous vehicles and other mission-critical applications.
