Webinar "IoT technology to support interconnected products and processes"
June 8, 2021 - Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies have made it possible to interconnect industrial machinery and commonly used products, making them capable of providing real-time data on their operation, status and location. Such data can be processed at different levels and used to optimize production performance and spillovers to the entire value stream, as well as to develop applications for tracking and recognition of "smart" products.
Presentation
The underlying enabling technology is called the Internet of Things (IoT) and was born out of a desire to digitally connect everything around us in our daily lives. In an increasingly computerized and digitized society, the Internet of Things plays a key role, and the number of IoT-connected objects is expected to increase exponentially in the coming years as this technology becomes more widespread.
The objective of the webinar is to understand the ways and opportunities arising from the connection of an increasing number of objects, which can affect the competitiveness of companies and their efficiency on the one hand, and the quality of life on the other.
The meeting will be divided into an initial stimulating moment, in which the issues will be presented by experts in the field, then into a second phase in which space will be left for a round table discussion in which companies active in sectors representative for the issues at hand, will discuss the approaches adopted, complexities identified and good practices developed.
