[China Instrument Network Instrumentation Enterprise] Although smart phones have been widely used, the application of the Internet in the industry is still far below people's imagination. Most of the large-scale machinery and equipment in the factories are still fighting for each other. They have different operation and management interfaces, and they have a single streamlined product. People can only know about equipment failures after the alarm lights up.
This has led the global industrial electric giants to see the broad prospects for the development of industry interconnection and the Internet of Things (IoT) as well as business opportunities. The Internet of Things has given each asset “production opportunity†in the production line, manufacturing process, building construction, or power grid, allowing the previously isolated mass of data to flow. IDC predicts that by 2020, there will be 30 billion devices connected to the Internet. Competing to build an IoT platform similar to Apple's iOS system and Google's Android system, electrical manufacturers want to monitor, analyze, and manage energy efficiency data in real time through various "apps".
"For Schneider Electric, the Internet of Things is the company's future. Most of the products we produced before were products like circuit breakers, data center UPS (UPS), transformers, and PLCs." French industrial giant Schneider Electric implements globally. Dr. Prith Banerjee, vice president, chief technology officer and member of the executive committee, told the press on the media open day recently that due to the rapid development of speed and cloud technology and the rapid decline in the cost of sensing equipment, equipment data can be It is more easily collected, stored in a huge data pool, waiting to be screened and analyzed. With the Internet of Things, Schneider Electric intends to transform itself into an interconnect solution provider.
At the Barcelona Global Conference on Internet of Things in October last year, Schneider Electric introduced the EcoStruxure energy efficiency management architecture and platform for the four terminal markets of buildings, data centers, industry and power grids. Based on this platform, Schneider Electric can remotely predict or diagnose electrical faults in hospitals and airports. Industrial companies can use this to maintain equipment in advance and reduce unplanned downtime. Building managers such as Hilton can inquire about the operation of all rooms to improve energy use. effectiveness.
"The sensor has been around for more than 20 years and the cost has dropped dramatically over the past 20 years. 20 years ago, a sensor might cost $1,000, then it would drop to $100, $1, and now only a few cents. At the same time, it The energy consumption is also declining significantly.All the data before, whether it is building data or automation data, are independent and disconnected.With the cloud technology, all of these previously independent data can be connected together into one. Overall,†Prith Banerjee said, predicting that by 2020, there will be 50 billion interconnected devices worldwide, and it would make no sense if their data were simply collected. With analysis technology, artificial intelligence, machine learning, etc., it is possible to extract and analyze effective information from massive data. In the past, only three pictures of the machine were allowed to learn, and now it can be seen that the recognition level of 1 million picture learning and training machines can help to further improve the accuracy of control.
In addition to Schneider Electric, other veteran multinational industrial groups are also making strides in the Internet of Things and are experiencing changes from machine manufacturers to digital companies. For industrial enterprises, digitalization and the Internet of Things can create new profits for manufacturing and industrial products on the one hand and real threats on the other. If they do not seize the opportunity, competitors will do it. Large IT companies such as Google and IBM Will also scramble for cake.
According to the estimates of the McKinsey Global Institute, the physical and digital worlds are interconnected through the Internet of Things. By 2025, digitization will contribute more than US$10 trillion to the global economy, and one-third of this may come from manufacturing.
"I think this market is big enough to allow every company to innovate in the Internet of Things. Each one is likely to have great success." Prith Banerjee believes that the Internet of Things is not a zero-sum game. The advantages of Schneider Electric's platform are its comprehensive vertical applications in buildings, data centers, industrial and power networks, and therefore the ability to cross, integrate, and provide complete solutions in different vertical areas.
The proliferation of connected devices has also brought about complex security challenges. Although the Internet of Things can help optimize analysis and decision-making, security issues can be a significant obstacle for companies considering access to the Internet of Things. As more and more Internet of Things devices access the Internet, the hackers will face more and more attacks.
“The Internet of Things technology faces many challenges, mainly three: one is the interoperability between different systems; the second is the interconnection between the old system/the existing system; the third is the network security. After networking, there will be more scope for protection or more targets for prevention. In the area of ​​network security, we are also continuously investing and doing our best to provide customers with a secure network environment,†Prith Banerjee told the press.
