Texas Instruments experts talk about the future of industrial Internet of Things applications

The Internet of Things is not a patent for consumer applications. As more and more sensors and devices are connected to the cloud, the Internet of Things will have greater potential in the industrial arena while providing more services. It's worth noting that the concepts of the Internet of Things and Machine-to-Machine (M2M) cannot be confused because there is a huge difference between them. M2M is usually a closed environment built on proprietary technology, while the Internet of Things provides an open environment and can operate with the connectivity of standard networks and its services, just like we humans. This openness allows the gas sensor to report directly to the operator when a problem is detected, which is not possible in an M2M system.

Prospects for industrial Internet of Things applications

By connecting to the cloud, many applications in the industrial market can play a huge role in the IoT space.

Smart Manufacturing : Manufacturers have begun adding wireless connectivity to their products and production lines to improve production processes. With integrated wireless connectivity, manufacturers can better understand the information from the factory floor to the cloud system to ensure that problems are discovered and resolved before the product leaves the factory. At the same time, manufacturers also want to collect information about plant equipment through wireless connections, which can help them discover vulnerabilities in the system, monitor production equipment, and also enable wireless upgrade of software and firmware, which was almost impossible in the past. of.

Building automation : Similar to factory automation, building automation can control the switch of the light according to whether the household is at home or not, and can also dynamically control the HVAC system to ensure optimal energy use. In addition, predictive maintenance of building automation helps ensure timely service completion, which reduces maintenance costs.

Smart City : Connecting the various elements of a smart city to the Internet of Things can make city life better. For example, smart water meters can be used to achieve efficient use of hydropower resources to save energy. At the same time, smart street lights connected to the network and monitoring and traffic control monitors connected to the cloud help maintain urban traffic. In addition, sensors throughout the city can monitor gas and water pipe leaks in real time to ensure the safety of residents' gas, water, and equipment.

· Other markets : The Internet of Things also has many development opportunities in other markets. For example, the Internet of Things can improve the health and safety of employees in non-workplaces. Networked wearables and healthcare monitors help improve people's health in all aspects. The car network not only provides more infotainment functions, but also makes the car lighter and more energy efficient. It also allows the car to be replaced and provides predictive maintenance, saving the owner expensive repairs.

Most of the cases mentioned above also apply to the consumer market. However, industrial Internet of Things and consumer applications have their own advantages. Industrial IoT needs to overcome the challenges of noise, environmental change and control delay by adopting different interfaces and protocols, and it should be highly secure depending on the situation and application.

In addition, the development of the industrial market is relatively slow compared to the consumer market, so it takes more time to realize the Internet of Everything in the industrial market. Because predictive maintenance, monitoring, and data analysis can improve the output and work environment, and the right hardware and software solutions have emerged on the market, we have plenty of economic reasons to enter the Internet of Things era, and everything is only It is a matter of time.
