Future Technologies said that the partners’ Living Lab will open in April 2023 for virtual and in-person visits
Future Technologies Venture said it is collaborating with Intel to open a private 5G “living lab” in Atlanta, Georgia.
In a release, Future Technologies said that the lab will provide a real-world environment to showcase use case solutions for large enterprises and government clients.
“With 14 years of private cellular experience we have moved beyond proof of concepts and are very focused on scaling our client’s large production deployments. With existing production deployments covering up to 4,000 square miles, we are now accelerating use case adoption to help our clients enhance their production network value beyond initial coverage or the initial anchor use case,” said Peter Cappiello, CEO of Future Technologies. “Intel is an ideal collaborator for us in this space based on their leadership in network and edge market, combined with the Intel IoT market ready solutions that provide business outcomes with sustainability in mind.”
The company said that the lab will include use cases being adopted in current private 5G network deployments including computer vision, connected worker, remote worker, asset health and management, Autonomous Mobile Robotics (AMR), RFID, IoT sensors, and Augmented Reality/Mixed Reality (AR/MR) solutions, among others. These solutions will span several markets to provide a “diverse demonstration capability to the military, industrial, logistics, large venue and retail markets,” the company said.
The live demonstrations will include several experience areas to include a retail storefront, special event demonstrations, logistics solutions with robotics as well as industrial and military use case demonstrations, according to Future Technologies.
“Over the past four years, Intel has worked closely with Future Technologies to build a solution ecosystem, and develop a delivery model. We are now moving forward with scaling together on production Private 5G deployments and vertical applications,” said Caroline Chan, Intel VP and general manager of the Network Business Incubator Division. “Intel IoT market ready solutions can accelerate deployments and drive business value among a wide range of edge use cases across the client’s network,” Chan added.
Future Technologies said that the Living Lab will open this month for virtual and in-person visits.
