Search every verified Jayanthi Iyengar interview, podcast appearance, and on-the-record quote — each transcript cross-checked by AI and human review to confirm speaker identity. In a September 2025 interview, Jayanthi Iyengar discussed Oshkosh Corporation's use of artificial intelligence to make vehicles more intuitive and safer for operators. He described the company's approach as creating "intelligent teammates" that reduce driver fatigue and cognitive load by automating specific tasks, such as a refuse truck identifying a curbside bin and deploying its arm at the push of a button. Iyengar noted that this technology can shorten training times, which he said currently take up to six months for operators to master complex controls like joysticks. Iyengar also highlighted Oshkosh's work on predictive maintenance, which informs field operators about wearing parts and provides replacement components proactively to improve efficiency. He cited autonomous jet bridge technology as another example, which can align with various aircraft doors to reduce airport delays. Iyengar emphasized that the company focuses on making systems robust through extensive real-world testing before mass production, and he urged customers to evaluate technology from a total cost of ownership perspective rather than focusing on individual vehicles.
