Industry 4.0: We are in the fourth technological revolution, where physical operations are paired with always-on data and software. IoT provides the sensor and actuator layer that connects assets to cloud/edge intelligence, enabling real-time visibility, analytics, and closed-loop control. This shift goes beyond traditional automation: systems interoperate, learn, and adapt – improving safety, quality, uptime, and cost.
While single-board computers and compact edge devices have existed for decades, their use in mission-critical industrial systems has accelerated in recent years:
- Hardware maturity – Raspberry Pi, Jetson, and NUC platforms now offer stable performance, extended lifespan, and industrial-grade accessories.
- Ecosystem readiness – full support for key industrial and IoT protocols, secure operating systems, and containerized deployments.
- Versatility – from smart home controllers to factory automation, the same platforms can scale across use cases.
We leverage these advancements to deliver modern, cost-effective, and future-proof IoT architectures that meet both technical and business needs.
