In order to protect the electronics of the sensors from shock, vibration and moisture, potting processes are an essential part of sensor production. For a smooth production process, but also for a constantly high product quality, the permanent availability of casting resin and casting hardener in the storage tank containers is absolutely necessary. The level […]

Also known as Agriculture 4.0, smart agriculture is the application of information and data technologies to optimize complex agricultural systems involving individual machines and all agricultural operations. Smart agriculture incorporates information and communication technologies into machinery, equipment and sensors used in agricultural production systems. Technologies such as IoT and cloud computing are advancing this development […]

While there is no single standard that could be applied to support a claim that a sensor is “smart,” Smart Sensors are typically characterized by on-board intelligence and the ability to communicate via a digital network. With the emergence of both the Internet of Things (IoT) and the Industrial IoT (IIoT), new smart IoT sensors […]

Renewable resources are good for the environment and reduce consumer costs but they are not a panacea to reducing electric grid cyber threats despite the prevailing view by many that renewable resources can reduce the cyber threat to electric utilities. I did a walkdown of several utility-scale solar facilities. Consider your roof-top solar system and […]

IIoT or Industrial IoT (Internet of Things) is everywhere. It’s across all industries, from high tech transport, to natural resources and governments. IIoT software and hardware is deployed for numerous, varying applications, and it’s critical to understand just what the customer needs. Especially since the customer can’t always articulate exactly what the remote monitoring and sensor […]

Throughout history, regional and municipal governments have used new technologies to improve the lives of their citizens. The aqueducts of Rome brought outside sources of water into the city, enhancing both public and private facilities. The London Underground, the first underground railway, made it easier and safer for people to move around the burgeoning city. […]

IBM, Cisco, and GE are pushing the IIoT as a major revolution in how marketing and manufacturing is done. The IIoT demands nearly 100% uptime all the time, and the only way to make sure you get that, is with a Network Information management (NIM) that operates in real-time. Bridging the IT/OT and Moving to […]

A growing number of commercial and private buildings are incorporating smart technology in their design and daily operations. Smart buildings bring a wide-range of conveniences to property managers, but the Internet of Things (IoT) technology that allows buildings and devices to communicate also presents a variety of security issues. Smart buildings rely on a central […]

A lot of big companies are creating “Innovation Labs” to generate IIoT platforms. We talk to them every day. Yet we see precious few successful IIoT systems ever delivered by these centralized teams. It’s not a problem of smarts or hard work. These are strong, motivated developers. But the Internet of Things is different, even […]

The measurement of a civilization can be made in its fields and among its crops. Agricultural technology advancements move nations, and provide a basis for extended growth of every aspect of its existence. Despite the ancient nature of farming, technologies such as 3D mapping, nitrogen fertilizer and genetic modification have pushed the cutting edge of […]
