Industry 4.

0 refers to the convergence and application of nine


digital industrial technologies:

The Internet of Things: The networking and connectivity of


smart devices to enable data collection and exchange.

Systems Integration: A more cohesive cross company


collaboration, enabling horizontal and vertical data integration
networks providing truly automated value chains.

Simulation: Amalgamation of physical and virtual entities to


model, design, simulate, monitor and safeguard physical
processes in a virtual environment.

Augmented Reality: Superimposing computer-generated images


combined with object recognition to a user’s view of the real
world, giving an interactive hybrid view.

Additive Manufacturing: Digital design data is used to create


a three-dimensional object in which layers of material are formed
under computer control.

Big data: Large data sets that may be analyzed computationally


to reveal inconsistent process performance or availability and
visualize results.

Cloud Computing: Remote server software and hardware


services used to store, manage, process and visualize data,
rather than a local server.

Autonomous system: An object/process which can gain


information about it’s environment, adapt and make decisions
without the need for human intervention.

Cyber Security: Protection of computer systems from theft or


damage to hardware, software or information and from disruption
of the services provided.
