Industry 4.0
Defenition
Industry 4.0, often referred to as the Fourth
Industrial Revolution, is a term that
describes the current trend of automation,
data exchange, and the integration of
advanced technologies in manufacturing
and other industries. It represents a
significant shift in how industries operate,
driven by the convergence of several
technological innovations.
The Toolkit
Internet of Things
(IoT)
A network of interconnected devices
that communicate and share data in
real-time, enabling smarter decision-
making and automation across
various applications.
Cyber-Physical Systems
Integrated systems that combine
physical processes with digital
control, enabling real-time
interaction between the physical and
virtual worlds, often used in smart
factories and automation.
The Toolkit
Artificial Intelligence
(AI)
The simulation of human intelligence
in machines, allowing them to learn,
reason, and solve problems
autonomously, driving automation
and innovation.
Big Data & Analytics
The process of collecting,
processing, and analyzing vast
amounts of data to uncover patterns,
trends, and insights that inform
