The Internet of Things is the concept of a data transmission network between physical objects (“things”) equipped with built-in tools and technologies for interacting with each other or with the external environment. It is assumed that the organization of such networks is capable of restructuring economic and social processes, eliminating the need for human participation from some of the actions and operations. ⚙🖥

Our Summer School Artificial Intelligence in Industrial Applications offers modules dedicated to IoT lead by top class lecturers of RWTH Aachen University.

Nowadays one keeps hearing about Industry 4.0. But what is it in a nutshell?

Originally inspired by Germany's "Industrie 4.0", a government initiative to promote connected manufacturing and a digital convergence between industry, businesses and other processes. ⚙

The fourth industrial revolution can also be understood as the extension of the third industrial revolution. Whereas Industry 3.0 introduced computers into the manufacturing processes, Industry 4.0 focuses on connecting those computers to one another. When fully applied, Industry 4.0 allows for the creation of smart factories and enables digital manufacturing. 🖥

We happen to have a Summer School dedicated to it. Check it out!
