Although much of the AI discussion tends to be limited to productivity gains through software, content production, and automating digital workflow processes, there is one area of opportunity that remains largely overlooked – the physical world.
This is where Aperture Venture Studio focuses its energy.
The company is dedicated to creating ventures that operate at the intersection of AI and IoT, leveraging intelligence to improve physical operations, industrial processes, assets, and surroundings. Rather than viewing AI as just another standalone tool, the studio sees it as part of a larger integrated ecosystem, one that consists of data capturing, visibility, control, and operational decision-making.
Why is this important?
Physical-based industries continue to struggle tremendously with numerous different areas of inefficiency within them, including:
- Asset tracking
- Inventory visibility
- Workforce monitoring
- Operational coordination (lack of planning)
- Access control and security
- Predictive intelligence relating to physical environments
By creating a venture studio model that addresses these needs and builds ventures around them creates primal value beyond just software, it transforms unconnected physical processes into connected (via network), visible (via data capture), measurable (via IoT) and reactive systems.
What makes this model compelling is its approach to building practicable ventures with valid demand:
- Identify industrial issue with sufficient demand
- Apply AI/IoT infrastructure to resolve them (implement solution)
- Validate the use case within the field
- Convert repeatable processes into scalable ventures
This venture model is critical because industrial problems still need innovative automated solutions that are acceptable to the end user. Therefore, if there are not sufficient people working day-to-day on application development processes, new technologies may not see future growth, or continue to have difficulty growing as expected.
Final remark
It's possible that the next phase of AI advancement: won't just rely on electronic thus: but also involve improving physical items; by increasing the ability to monitor, track, or change itself.
Aperture Venture Studio works in this industry and gives a great illustration; proving that by concentrating on; utilising tangible 'real world' intelligence and not simply cutting-edge; venture productions create importance.
