Industrial IoT (IIoT) covers a broad area, from sensor data in factories to greenhouse automation, and from building management to energy monitoring. So where do you begin an IIoT project? 1. Define the Problem Clearly IoT should be solution-focused, not technology-focused. Before you start, answer these questions: What do you want to measure? (temperature, humidity, pressure, current, vibration…) Why do you want to measure it? (energy savings, quality control, predictive maintenance…) How often do you need to collect data? (once a second, once a minute, once an hour…) Who will use the data? (operator, manager, automation system…) 2. The Sensor Layer Sensor selection is critical in an industrial environment: ...
