AI is no longer a far-off, futuristic concept for Michigan’s manufacturing ecosystem. However, in order for to truly serve as a competitive advantage for manufacturers, it must be implemented correctly.

These were among the key learnings yesterday during an AI and manufacturing event at Automation Alley, organized by Global Auto Mobility with support from TÜV Rheinland India Pvt. Ltd.

Intrepid was on hand as our very own Kevin Kitlinski joined an expert panel discussion alongside Steve Thomson, Jon Isenberg, and Ron Crabtree, moderated by Robert Scipione.

When it comes to the relationship between AI and manufacturing, the panelists discussed how to address cybersecurity concerns and why transparent communication from senior leadership is important for building trust in the systems. The panelists also examined how smaller manufacturers can invest in AI in a way that makes sense.

Opening remarks were delivered by John Petty. After the panel, Dan Stewart provided tours of the facility.

Thank you to everyone who participated and came by the Intrepid booth to see our latest solutions, including the neoVI RED 2, which combines the best aspects of a vehicle network interface with the Linux embedded operating system.

The result is a solution unparalleled in capability, with support for multiple network interfaces, standalone data logging, and wireless data logging.

Intrepid has been “on the road” with exciting demos over the last couple of weeks, starting with Keysight Technologies and its Automotive & Energy Tech Day in Novi, Michigan.

While there, we featured demos of the RAD-Moon T1S Media Converter and RAD-Gigastar 2 T1 Active Tap for attendees. More details 👇

RAD Gigastar 2: https://intrepidcs.com/products/automotive-ethernet-tools/rad-gigastar2-1gbt1-t1s-active-tap-gateway-media-converter-vehicle-interface-data-logger/

From there, we headed to the U.S. Lighting Workshop, where Arpan Rughani presented Intrepid’s upcoming tool set for automotive lighting teams.

Meanwhile, Jacob Gubow featured a demo of our neoVI Fire3 Compute, in which OEMs can validate multiple lamps simultaneously, switching between CAN, LIN, and discrete configurations from a single interface.

As a multi-protocol vehicle interface, gateway, and data logger with embedded edge intelligence, neoVI Fire 3 Compute is the “secret sauce” here at Intrepid.

As for the actual bottle of hot sauce in these photos, that’s a special blend made right here in Detroit, like all Intrepid solutions. Serious tools like neoVI Fire 3 Compute require serious sauce!

The Controller Area Network (CAN) is a powerful technology that serves as a primary communications network on most modern vehicles. To build on this foundation, automakers are upgrading to Controller Area Network with Flexible Data-Rate (CAN FD), an extension that enables larger data payloads and faster data rates than standard CAN.

This coming Thursday (June 18th), Intrepid has free CAN and CAN FD training. We will offer both remote and in-person options, with the latter being held at our HQ in Troy, Michigan.

No matter how you join, this class will give you everything you need to get up to speed with CAN, including all the details about CAN and CAN/FD as well as comparisons.

AI is no longer science fiction or some far-off futuristic concept. Especially when it comes to manufacturing, AI is becoming a differentiator and a competitive advantage.

Join Intrepid, TÜV Rheinland India Pvt. Ltd., and Global Auto Mobility as we explore AI thought leadership in manufacturing at an Automation Alley event, set for Wednesday, June 17th.

AI must be treated as more than an IT upgrade in order to deliver real value. Join us for a practical conversation about how manufacturers can use AI to improve operations, strengthen supply chains, enhance safety, and reduce risk.

​The companies that learn to apply AI strategically will move faster than those still waiting on the sidelines.

By combining Intrepid’s technology with ’s platform, automotive lighting suppliers can control virtually any protocol configuration for their lamps while leveraging a powerful testing toolchain. Manufacturers can validate multiple lamps simultaneously and seamlessly switch between CAN, LIN, and discrete configurations from a single interface.

This innovative approach helps optimize resources, improve testing efficiency, and provide a safer and more reliable way to verify lighting performance before production.
