Manufacturing
Plants run on tight cycle times, older control systems and networks that were never designed to face the internet. A change that stops a line costs more than it saves, so new technology has to be introduced beside the existing process and proven before it takes over.
Typical applications
- Visual inspection and predictive maintenance models (AI & Machine Learning)
- Segmentation of IT and OT networks and passive monitoring of controllers (Cybersecurity)
- Mobile robots for material movement and vision-guided handling (Robotics & Intelligent Systems)
- Optical data links in cells with heavy electromagnetic interference (Li-Fi Systems)
