  4. IoT and Industrial IoT

  5. The Internet of Things (IoT) is today THE thing Internet of things (IoT) is basically nothing new, it has been applied in industrial system for many years under different names using different technologies. Today IoT or Industrial IoT (IIoT) is used to describe a number of solutions and technology aimed to connect operational technologies (OT) to various forms of IT based systems. This makes the scope definition very broad and fuzzy One strong reason the IIoT has generated so much attention on the market is that new technology investments are not always necessary. The majority of the installed based and devices sold on the market today are already intelligent and networked. This means that the systems are capable of communicating as well as providing intelligent and structured information. The IIoT enables manufacturers to build solutions that drive efficiency and reduces cost through predictive maintenance and real-time asset monitoring, increase business agility by accessing faster and better insights, enable collaborative innovation internally and externally with shared data insights, and pursue new business opportunities with smart, connected products and new service offerings Every device, machine and system will be networked and connected to the IIoT world HMS provides solutions for secure information bridging within IIoT

  6. Growth of IoT • Internet will double in size every 5 years • World population will be around 7.5 Billion in 2020 • In everyday lives already • Thermostats • Fitness devices • Traffic monitoring • Tracking food, retail purchases

  7. Today’s Industrial Market Opportunities • Last 100m is critical to success and largest growth opportunity • Connect current devices • Install new sensors, devices to gain more data

  8. Value of Wireless IoT Technologies Faster system deployment • Standards based wireless technology • Scalable systems Combined intelligence versus silos • Shared data across operations, business, R&D, maintenance • Additional data drives more informed decisions Improved productivity • More flexible shop floor configurations • Employees can access data on handheld devices Redundant systems • Easily Multiple Sensors • Multiple wired and wireless backhaul connections

  9. What is happening now? Industrial IoT, I4.0 and Cloud Solutions • New technology built for the internet is being introduced into corporate IT environments • New sensor and wireless communication technology enables information gathering from physical assets • ”Internet of things” enables hardware vendors (eg machine vendors) to become service providers. The product speaks back to the vendor during the whole life cycle • The iPhone generation is entering the workforce and are demanding ease of use also in a factory environment • "Industry 4.0" is generating a strong global interest and spin-off activities • I4.0 reference solutions combining the notion of for cyber-physical systems (CPS) and IoT are now being presented

  10. Industrial IoT What answers can IIoT provide… • How are my systems performing? • Can I improve my business processes with real-time information? • Are my systems coordinated for best planning and flexibility? • How much performance and efficiency is hiding in my machines, systems and plant? • Have I tapped all sources of additional revenue from my systems? • Can the quality improve to lower my waste (CoBQ – Cost of Bad Quality)? • Can I improve my up-time with predictive maintenance? • Etc.

  11. How will IoT solutions be applied? Awareness: • By capturing and visualizing IT/OT data and information for operators and decision makers Control: • By combining and processing IT/OT data for flexibility and efficiency Optimization: • By logging and analyzing IT/OT information in databases looking for trends and relationships
