How to Use Artificial Intelligence for On-The-Job Training of Blue-Collar Workers

April 4, 2019

For the next 19 years, the United States will see 10,000 baby boomers retire every single day. That’s nearly 70M people leaving the workforce. Across the industrial sector, there are few resources to effectively capture the institutional knowledge and expertise of these workers before they retire.

Its availability offers profound improvements to industrial enterprise operations, and yet one factor critical to operational efficiency is often overlooked: the worker. Worldwide, millions of men...

Complementary technologies including augmented reality (AR) and wearables help users to access and interact with...

Future-Proofing Your Blue-Collar Workforce With AI

December 26, 2018

By 2028 the manufacturing industry in the United States will experience a skills gap of over 2 million jobs.[1] The cause of this is threefold. First, as our population ages, “people aged 65 and older will out-number children under the age of five for the first time in history by 2020.” This is problematic because we don’t have the right mechanisms in place to effectively capture and disseminate the vital tribal knowledge that boomers have accumulated and there isn’t...
