Accelerating Industrial Automation: Bringing AI to Functional Safety
Riccardo Mariani | VP of Industry Safety, NVIDIA

Functional safety has been around for years, defining a process that ensures that machine safety functions work correctly, or that they can fail in a safe manner. With the rise of industry 4.0, automation, and robotics, today’s factories increasingly have more electronically controlled equipment as well as autonomous machines that must work side by side with humans. Because of this, there is a growing need to understand how we combine AI, edge computing, and functional safety principles to build factories of the future with the highest safety standards.
