The Industrial Internet Of Things
• Efficiency
• The IIoT has made the world a more efficient place. From a simple perspective, it greatly reduces the risk of human error. Without the IIoT, the automation that has made daily life so much simpler and more convenient would be impossible. Prescriptions are filled automatically; text message reminders allow critical deadlines to be met; heart rates are monitored through wearable devices and the manufacturing world has been completely and utterly transformed. While technology has its inherent vulnerabilities and pitfalls, the science, safety and security of the IIoT are ever improving with time. Security vulnerabilities are easily identified and corrected, offering opportunities for learning and improvement. IIoT has also been proven to save on cost, energy and efficiency, resulting in greener, more environmentally manufacturing processes.
• Robotics, machine learning and logistics
• Without IIoT, advances in robotics would be virtually impossible. From military applications to machine learning, robotics would be utterly impossible without the communication facilitated by the IIoT. Other fields would grind to a halt without the IIoT. Everything from fleet management and logistics to shopping online would grind to a halt if simple messages were unable to pass from one device to another. From managing a supply chain to maintaining the security of an office, the IIoT changes everything it touches, allowing for information and analytics to be processed instantly, this allowing for information to be readily available at any given moment.
