Point Roberts, WA and Vancouver, BC - April 5, 2019
(Investorideas.com Newswire) Investorideas.com, a global investor news source
covering Artificial Intelligence issues a sector snapshot, looking at how new
developments in AI, IoT and the digital tech sector are now being deployed in
seemingly "old-school" industries such as oil and gas and mining.
As
technology progresses forward at a break-neck pace, older and more established
industry sectors such as oil and gas, or mining and manufacturing are beginning
to realize that utilizing these new technologies is the only way to embrace the
future. BI Intelligence predicts that
global manufacturers will invest $70 Billion on IoT solutions in 2020, up from
$29 Billion spent in 2015.

Corp.
(TSX-V:

(OTCQB: MCLDF), a leading
provider of asset management solutions combining IoT, cloud computing,

Originally
developed to support field workers and maintainers in mCloud’s Smart Buildings
and Wind segments, the Company expects to deliver similar capabilities within
its recently announced entry into Oil and Gas through its newly-signed
three-year global licensing agreement for AssetCare solutions with Fulcrum
Automation Technologies (“Fulcrum”). In the oil and gas industry, mCloud
estimates there are over 1.4 million field workers operating over 500,000
assets across North America whose roles would benefit from the enhanced
productivity and efficiency that would come with hands-free access to AssetCare
in the field.
Delivered
on smart glasses, mCloud’s AssetCare platform enables workers in the field to
get access to the right information at the right time combining the features of
an AI-powered digital assistant with advanced 3D and mixed reality. Real-time
digital work instructions enable workers to get guidance and verification as
they work through complex procedures, ensuring they get jobs done right the
first time. Smart work order management capabilities ensure workers focus on
those field assets in most urgent need of attention.
In
addition, remote assistance, provided through mCloud’s strategic arrangement
with Agnity Global enables workers in the field to virtually collaborate with
experts in the corporate back-office through a secure, enterprise-grade video
and audio link.
“Our
ability to deliver AssetCare on hands-free smart glasses lets us dramatically
improve the productivity and efficiency of field workers everywhere,” said Dr.
Barry Po, mCloud’s Chief Product Officer. “All across the oil and gas value
chain, there are opportunities for us to enhance the way decisions are made in
the field.”
