Keynote: Fueling the AI Revolution: The Next Frontier of Data
Thursday June 26, 2025 9:05am - 9:25am PDT
AI’s evolution depends on one crucial ingredient—data. Since 2018, machine-generated data has outpaced human-created content, and we are approaching a critical inflection point. By 2026, curated text datasets will be depleted, and by 2030, even broad web-based text data may be exhausted. As AI models increasingly rely on their own outputs for training, the risk of data bias grows, threatening future advancements.
 
To push AI beyond its current limits, we must look beyond text. The next frontier lies in sensory data—collected from millions of emerging and existing smart devices. A new generation of sensor-powered technology will be essential to drive the next wave of AI innovation. Join us as we explore how this shift will redefine the future of artificial intelligence.

Leaders' Roundtable: AI & Sensors: Exploring A Special Symbiosis
Thursday June 26, 2025 9:45am - 10:25am PDT
AI is transforming the world. From predictive maintenance to content creation, AI is set to push the world into a new era, enabling industries to maximize efficiency, productivity and profitability. Sensors are the core technology for AI. Responsible for the capture and processing of the real-world data used to power AI models, without sensors, AI would not be possible. This roundtable will explore the role of sensors in fuelling AI capabilities, and in turn, will examine how AI itself can be utilized in the design and optimization of advanced sensor technologies. Speakers will explore the combined potential of AI and sensor technology in building intelligent and responsive systems across industry, as well as focus on practical applications, recent breakthroughs and future trends that will shape the next generation of smart sensor solutions.

Panel Discussion: Exploring Sensor Testing & Limitations: Challenges & Considerations
Thursday June 26, 2025 10:50am - 11:30am PDT
Explores the complexities of sensor testing and the physical limitations encountered in the process. It delves into minimum absolute pressures, vacuum challenges, and high-pressure fluid compressibility. The discussion includes using suitable reference sources and the range limits and costs associated with automated pressure calibrators and manual deadweights. It also addresses sensor limitations such as adiabatic effects and drift in devices under test (DUTs) and system limitations like reproducibility, ambient conditions, and atmospheric pressure noise. Additionally, it covers compliance verification, both short-term and long-term, focusing on metrological parameters, zero drift, span drift, and linearity drift.
