Mobility technology is transforming the smart manufacturing environment. This trend is accelerated by the IIoT and Industry 4.0 initiatives, whose goals include empowering an intelligent enterprise through a smart, connected automation ecosystem.
For the first time, a helicopter will take off from the surface of Mars. Aerospace engineer at AeroVironment Inc. Matt Keennon explains how this impossible mission became a reality.
When we hear IIoT, the main network that comes to mind is the network connecting enterprise systems and cloud applications. The network of field devices and control systems is equally as important, since the health of this network is critical.
By means of key additions to industrial Ethernet standards, TSN supports determinism and network convergence – two essential elements of highly competitive, connected industries of the future.
Developed and maintained by the not-for-profit FDT Group, FDT® technology's goal is to empower the intelligent enterprise with open and standardized data-centric integration independent of platform, field communications protocols and devices.
