Taiwan's IBM announced that it has joined forces with a large domestic solution integrator (SI) to identify the pain points that are difficult to integrate between IT and OT in the manufacturing industry, and uses the IBM Smart Manufacturing 5C maturity model as the blueprint. Both parties will provide pre-introduction evaluation services, depending on needs. However, SI will provide OT and IT integration services, or IBM will provide more data-driven AI value-added services.

After more than ten years, South Korea has continuously promoted machines to target South Korea smart cities. It has achieved remarkable results in the field of industrial robots and has gradually moved towards commercialization in the field of service robots. Industrial intelligence that enhances industrial competitiveness extends to the realization of the vision of coexisting humans and robots to intelligent life.

The world is poised to change forever with the implementation of fifth-generation connectivity for data networks across the world. 5G has been promised to be the savior to any connectivity problems we've had in the past and it's also been highlighted as a path towards a fully wireless future.

Information is power. Information can not only adjust decision-making but also help discover market opportunities. Use advanced motion control technology to optimize the performance of automated machines.

Through national key projects, the Taiwanese government announced that it plans to invest more than one trillion yuan in transportation technology to stimulate the development of convenient transportation and boost the Taiwan economy.

Smart machine tools originally referred to various stand-alone machines with auxiliary software functions, developed for machine tool factories to improve machine tool operating efficiency. In recent years, under the wave of Industry 4.0, smart machine tools have been given new definitions. Besides having enhanced auxiliary functions, smart machines need to complete production in coordination with all the equipment in the factory through the communication interface.

With the reduction of the labor force and the rise of labor costs in emerging countries such as China and other Southeast Asian countries, production lines are increasing their reliance on industrial robots for processing or assembly processes. With the development of technology, the environment in which robots and laborers work together will become more common, and safety issues will become more complex.

With the rapid development of emerging industries such as the Internet of Things and mobile Internet, smart sensors are becoming more popular. Smart sensors are composed of sensing elements and signal conditioning circuit controllers that have data acquisition, conversion, analysis, and even decision-making functions. Intelligence can improve the accuracy of the sensor, reduce power consumption and volume, and achieve easier networking, thereby expanding the application range of the sensor and making its development more rapid and effective.

The development of new technologies has brought the whole world into the era of the Internet of Things. This new era has more advancements in the area of intelligent design than the information age, and smart sensors have played an indispensable role in its development.

The Smart Machinery Cloud Platform intends to standardize terminal software and hardware, application tools, and operation platforms to assist enterprises in their digital transformation.

To enhance competitiveness, manufacturers are driving a shift from a reactive problem-solving model to a more proactive device, process, product, and plant management model.

How to make good use of digital technology to analyze, formulate strategies, and respond quickly at the core of enterprise operations has become the key to development.

As one of the fastest-growing emerging economies in the world, India has a huge demographic dividend and is expected to catch up with China to become the world's most populous country.
