📍 Track: Agentic AI in Maintenance, Reliability & Asset Management
💬 Kristoff Van Ratthinghe (CEO, Sensolus) & Pieterjan Blondeel (VP Marketing, Sensolus)

AI-driven asset management is only as good as the data behind it. In most industrial settings, that data is outdated or missing entirely. In this session, Sensolus CEO Kristoff Van Ratthinghe shows how turning simple, rugged passive trackers into active agents can give AI systems the reliable, real-time “ground truth” they need without an infrastructure overhaul.

You’ll learn:

• Why AI fails without accurate physical ground truth
• How passive trackers can function as active AI agents
• A practical framework for bridging field data with AI systems
