Verizon partners with Delloitte to offer Smart Solutions to Firms

Business consultancy firm Delloitte has partnered with Verizon to offer 5G and edge solutions. According to Delloitte, it will use its rapport and information of specific companies to assist Verizon deploy 5G edge MEC platform, mobile networks, Software Defined-Wide Area Network (SD-WAN), IoT sensors, computer vision solutions, cloud-based artificial intelligence and private enterprise.

According Verizon, the partnership will enable them transform the manufacturing and retail sector. Verizon is seeking to use Delloite’s engineering expertise to serve specific consumer demands. The two companies have agreed to develop a smart factory system.

The two firms want to offer their customers with “real-time enterprises” using commercial agility and real-time intelligence.  Verizon will benefit a lot from the partnership, as it will enable it shut competitors like AT&T and T-Mobile out of some designated 5G enterprise contracts.

The partnership between the two companies will first involve the deployment of 5G and edge platforms using artificial intelligence to predict quality defaults on the assembly line and promptly alert remote workers. 

Industries and government departments are fast adopting 5G enterprises and experts predict that the technology will act as a catalyst for the fourth industrial revolution. Historically offline sectors such as farming, mining and manufacturing are slowly adopting remote operation and digitalization.

How Human Noise Kills Marine Species, as revealed by Scientists

Scientists have warned that the discord of noise made by humans is harming marine species .  A comprehensive assessment revealed that large noise from human activities was as harmful as pollution, overfishing and climate change .  The study that was conducted by the Journal Science exposed how marine animals can hear from far distances than they can see or smell. According to a report published in the Guardian, most of the marine life uses sound to catch prey as well as attracting a mating partner.  Prof Carlos Duarte of King Abdullah University in Saudi Arabia argued that: “Marine animal can only sea up to around 10 meters, smell up to around a hundred meters, but they can hear across the entire ocean basins.” The research concluded that sound “is very important in the marine ecosystems, and noise is pervasive, affecting animals at all levels .” The increasing cacophony in the marine habitat is interfering with how marine animals respond to various survival tactics which

Carbon dioxide to Make Jet Fuel, Study Reveals

Photo Source: twitter.com Aircrafts release a lot of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere which contributes to climate change. A research that was conducted by Science News and reported on December, 22 2020 stated that there was a new iron-based catalyst that has been invented to convert carbon dioxide into jet fuel. It is only a matter of time that carbon dioxide pumped to the atmosphere by planes could be sucked and used to power the same. The air travel’s footprint in carbon emissions could be tremendously curtailed, if the carbon dioxide that is released is recycled to generate fuel. As per Science News reports, Air transport contributes to about 12 percent of the entire transportation carbon-related emissions. Unlike cars, aircrafts cannot carry bigger batteries which can be run on electricity generated from wind or solar panels. The current breakthrough in the conversion of carbon dioxide to fuel involves cheap ingredients such as iron and transformed through a single s

Why Mt Kenya Leaders are wary about Change of Guard

As 2022 succession battle gains momentum in Kenya, leaders drawn from Mt Kenya region have become more concerned of their political future and survival. Mt Kenya region is predominantly occupied by the agikuyu, ameru and aembu communities. The region has produced three out of the four presidents. It boosts about the tyranny of numbers, thus making the region a battle ground for leaders from other region seeking to succeed President Uhuru Kenyatta.  Central alone produced Mzee Jomo Kenyatta, Mwai Kibaki and Uhuru Kenyatta as presidents. The only other Kenyan president drawn out of the region was Daniel Arap Moi. In the recent past, the region has gone against the tide of State operatives as a sign of revolt over what they term as negligence from the government, despite electing one of their own to the much coveted seat.  Deputy President William Ruto has taken advantage of the brewing rebellion through making serious political forays in Central and its vicinity.
