Shifting Paradigms: The Rise of Edge Computing in Manufacturing

For decades, manufacturers have relied on traditional dashboards that often fell short when it came to understanding the complexity of real-time operations. In this episode of the ‘AI in Business’ podcast, Microsoft’s Rad Desiraju and NVIDIA’s Mike Geyer explore how AI-powered 3D digital twins and real-time simulation are transforming the way manufacturers monitor, collaborate, and optimize production environments. The conversation begins with a breakdown of how dashboards have evolved—from static displays of sensor data to immersive, simulation-based platforms driven by AI. Rad and Mike then dive into the technical backbone behind today’s most advanced digital twin solutions, including edge computing, accelerated computing, and frameworks like Azure Arc and Omniverse.
