From Device to Cloud: Why Data Security Matters More Than Ever in AI-Driven Systems
Artificial intelligence has made data the lifeblood of modern systems. Devices across every sector including industrial equipment, medical devices, sensors, and wearables now generate massive volumes of data every day. However, once that data starts moving from the device to the cloud, it enters a stage of significantly heightened vulnerability. As organizations shift toward cloud-based […]
How Strong Software Architecture Prevents MVPs From Failing
When teams are pressed for time to get an Minimum Viable Product (MVP) out the door they may unintentionally rush the process and put themselves at a disadvantage. The intention is good, move fast, validate assumptions, and learn early, but somewhere between strategy, design, and execution, the meaning of “minimal” gets distorted. Too often, MVPs […]
Balancing AI Innovation and IP Protection: Why Local LLMs Are Becoming Essential for Software Teams
Artificial intelligence is changing the way software is built. Tools like ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot, and other cloud-based large language models (LLMs) have quickly become part of the daily workflow for developers across the world. They help generate code, unblock problems, create documentation, and surface new design ideas in seconds. But as powerful as these tools […]
From Pixels to Patterns: Why Image Analysis Is Moving Beyond Math
For decades, image analysis was a world of precise equations and predictable results. Engineers wrote rules that defined how computers saw the world. If the pixel is brighter than x, it’s an edge; if it’s darker than y, it’s a background. It was clean, logical, and deterministic. But what happens when the real world doesn’t […]
Where Innovation Meets Collaboration: Inside Robotics & AI Discovery Day 2025
On November 5, 2025, the David L. Lawrence Convention Center in Pittsburgh was buzzing with the energy of innovation. The Pittsburgh Robotics Network’s Robotics & AI Discovery Day 2025 brought together the brightest minds in robotics, artificial intelligence, and advanced manufacturing, showcasing how collaboration is fueling the next generation of technological breakthroughs. As a proud […]
Co-Development Partnerships: The Secret to Scaling Without Compromise
Growth is a good problem to have, until it starts straining your teams. Many organizations reach a point where their product roadmaps are expanding faster than their engineering bandwidth. Deadlines tighten, innovation slows, and quality becomes harder to maintain. The instinct is often to hire or outsource, but both can come with tradeoffs. Hiring takes […]
AI Meets Image Processing: A Software Engineer’s Guide to Building Vision Systems with Deep Learning
Seeing the World Through Code Every day, cameras capture billions of images, from factory floors to hospital rooms to satellites orbiting Earth. But what truly transforms those pixels into insight is software. For decades, image processing relied on handcrafted filters and algorithms, but today, deep learning has revolutionized how machines “see.” At IQ Inc., we’ve […]
Training AI Engineers: How to Future-Proof Your Dev Team
The conversation about AI has shifted. What used to sound like science fiction, AI-generated code, autonomous testing, adaptive interfaces, is now embedded in the daily toolkit of forward-thinking developers. But the truth is, AI isn’t replacing engineers. It’s redefining what it means to be one. The divide forming across the industry isn’t between those who […]
AIoT in Transportation: Real-Time Fleet Intelligence for a Safer, Greener Future
Every day connected vehicles and logistics systems generate enormous amounts of data, from engine diagnostics to location tracking to driver behavior. But without intelligent systems to analyze and act on that data, most of it goes unused. That’s where AIoT (Artificial Intelligence + Internet of Things) is changing the future of transportation. AIoT enables vehicles, […]
Designing with the End User in Mind: How Collaboration Drives Better Web Apps
Have you ever used a Web App that checked all the technical boxes but still left you frustrated? Maybe it had dozens of features but buried the one thing you needed three menus deep. Or maybe it was so complex that you needed a manual just to complete a simple task. When that happens, the […]
