The impact of 5G wireless, automobile design changes that are good for the environment, and how technology can improve claims outcomes are among the cutting edge topics addressed in the report.
Buckle Up for Warp Speed with the Advent of 5G
In 六合彩开奖记录 President and CEO Alex Sun explains how 5G鈥攖he fifth generation of wireless capabilities鈥攊s set to turbocharge communications and the Internet of Things. 5G could bring information to mobile phones 600 times faster than today's speeds. And, it can enable connections of up to one million devices per square kilometer, as compared to the 2,000 to 10,000 devices per square kilometer provided by 4G.
Simply put, 5G may result in a massive increase in connected devices that respond almost instantly鈥攊mpacting connected cars, healthcare sensors, thermostats and other devices.
鈥5G has significant implications for the entire auto physical damage ecosystem,鈥 noted Sun. 鈥淎s the number of sensors in vehicles increases, the data they produce may collect details of collision damage, which in aggregate can help manufacturers improve vehicle designs, carriers price coverage appropriately, and collision repair facilities accomplish proper and safe repairs.鈥
With 5G, connected cars will have vastly enhanced capabilities to interact with car-to-car and car-to-infrastructure networks. The time required to charge electronic vehicles should be reduced, making these cars more practical for long-distance driving. The safety and operability of autonomous cars may likewise be significantly improved.
In healthcare, 5G can put the Internet of Things into hyperdrive, for much more sophisticated remote monitoring of patients, improved safety and a more personalized approach to care. 5G can also drive the development of super-precise robots for remote and/or more accurate performance of surgeries and other procedures. to learn how tomorrow's innovations may come faster than expected.
