Internet of Things Solutions in Industry

Abstract

The design of Internet of Things (IoT) systems is a function of the industry activities. This chapter discusses some architectures of quasi real-time data processing in the cloud environment for industrial applications, including multi-visor augmented reality connection, blockchain integrated in information systems, and dynamic production infrastructures integrating artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics. It provides an overview of industrial applications using sensors transmitting in the cloud environment and linked in a local area network. The real issue in Industry 5.0 is to increase the computational performances of the AI engines using graphics processing units or cloud computing approaches. IoT devices are important for control and adjustment of production, possibly improved by AI engines. Blockchain is an important tool for security production check, and in general for cybersecurity. The data are collected in secure blocks ensuring data integrity. Mechatronic machine interface integrating sensors are fundamental for a fully automatized production.
