Industry 4.0, Industrial IoT, and Telerobotics

Unlike Consumer IoT, Industrial IoT (IIoT) is applied to manufacturing and supply chain environment, the under development segment in IoT segment. IIoT is expected to create vivid impact across the ecosystem players and industry verticals like governments, city infrastructure, aviation, power generation, transportation and many more. Without any doubt IIoT is going to create real market opportunity for IoT. The inherent journey began during the era of Industry 1.0 when mechanization of production system revolutionizes the world and real race of industrialization starts. Since then industries went through several innovations and upgradation such as mass production, assembly line, division of labor, electricity, automation of production process, and integration with IT system throughout the journey of Industry 2.0 and Industry 3.0. The emergence of robust internet connectivity & network, IoT technologies, industrial robotics, cloud based technologies, and intelligent machines pushed the whole concept of industry into a new shape called Industry 4.0, the fourth industrial revolution.
