It can revolutionize capturing data and reporting real-time production to the computer. It can prevent really expensive breakdowns and repairs and reduce down-time to an absolute minimum. It can link machines to each other machines and coordinate their production rates to optimize production. The systems can link real-time cameras and sensors to improve safety and production. Their customers can also benefit by getting real-time data.
Key Takeaways:
- The Industrial Internet of Things refers to the technology needed to place small, versatile sensors on almost any object and monitor it.
