Verizon and corning co-innovate with 5g to create factory of the future
Verizon has installed 5g ultra wideband service in corning’s fiber optic cable manufacturing facility in hickory, nc. corning will use verizon’s 5g technology to test how 5g can enhance functions such as factory automation and quality assurance in one of the largest fiber optic cable manufacturing facilities in the world. the companies are also working together to co-innovate new 5g-enabled solutions that can potentially revolutionize the way goods and services are produced. 5g’s low latency, fast speeds and high bandwidth can improve the manufacturing process, enhancing capabilities like machine learning, augmented reality and virtual reality (ar/vr). engineers from verizon and corning will explore how the factory of the future can use 5g to dramatically speed data collection, allow machines to communicate with each other in near real time, and wirelessly track and inspect inventory using 5g-connected cameras. they’ll also test how 5g can improve the function of autonomous guided vehicles (agvs) by helping them move more efficiently around the factory floor. the project advances verizon's longstanding collaboration with corning, recently focused on solutions that speed deployment of 5g using corning’s optical technologies and verizon’s next-generation network architecture.
