This is a summary of one of the sessions that took place as part of the MIT Connected Things WFH Edition. May, 7th 2020.

Interviewer:
<\/strong>Mark Thirman, Board Chair, MIT Connected Things
<\/em>
Featuring<\/em>:<\/strong>
Michael Ellenbogen<\/em>, founder of Evolv.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Evolv Does?<\/em><\/strong>
They offer walk through devices that automatically detects firearms or threats. The device is an example of an IoT device that uses AI \/ Machine Learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What makes the device an IoT device:<\/strong><\/em>
– Smart sensors
– Server software that analyze the data from the sensors
– 4G LTE modem for connectivity<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How does the system gets smarter over time using Machine Learning?<\/em><\/strong>
– The more systems are deploy
– The more data are collected
– Some of that data is pushed to the cloud to help training the algorithms
– They test the new algorithms extensivly
– The new algorithms are pushed back out to the field. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are the main use cases? <\/strong><\/em>
– Stadiums, schools, venues and concert halls: where in a short period of time before the show starts thousands of people needs to be scanned
– Workplace violence
– Casinos

<\/strong>What’s a possible Covid-19 Use case? <\/strong>
<\/em>The same system could be used to detect people with fever or to limit the number of people entering a place per certain time period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What impact does the 5G has on IoT products?<\/strong><\/em>
A lot of the processing is currently taking place on-prem (on premise) on the device’s CPU\/GPU’s, with 5G, more processing and more data analytics will be done on the cloud without having to scale up the physical device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
