Gateways
An IoT Gateway is an essential hardware element for enabling IoT communications, usually device-to-device or device-to-cloud communications. The gateway is typically an industrial-grade device with integrated agent application software that performs edge processing, protocol connector/conversion, data filtering and data forwarding functions. Remote device management and security of IoT gateways can be realized through agent software and PKI-based solutions, respectively.

Smart Glasses
Wearable computer glasses which enable the user (e.g. at the home office) to see what the remote smart glasses wearer is seeing and to indicate specific objects/controls/parts to the remote wearer through the use of Augmented Reality 3D notated arrow and drawing graphics (also available to the wearer to create). In this way, a remote technician, for example, can be very efficiently and accurately guided through a support call or repair.
EPSON
With more than 80,000 worldwide employees and using it’s #1 position in projector sales and technology, EPSON’s Moverio series smart glasses allow enterprises to use Augmented Reality to reduce human error, minimize travel cost and increase safety in their operations.
RealWear
The RealWear HMT-1 is a powerful, ruggedized Android computer that is worn on the head and replaces the touch screen with an articulated micro-display, giving the appearance of a 7-inch tablet screen. Voice commands allow for easy screen and application navigation.
Assisted and Augmented Reality
Augmented reality (AR) is an interactive visual experience in which real-world objects are enhanced by computer-generated graphics and perceptual information.
Brochesia
As an all-in-one solution, B View is designed to collaborate remotely and support you in your everyday work. Thanks to its perfect integration with Smart Glasses – as well as PCs, smartphones, and tablets – B View allows you to call, chat, start streaming audio/video sessions, share your point of view with collaborators, take photos, record videos, open documents, use advanced Augmented Reality features and much more, all with just one software!
Oculavis
SHARE redefines the way service processes for machinery and equipment are done. The remote support platform connects experts and technicians with mobile devices such as smartphones, tablets, or smart glasses to collaborate on machinery-related processes like acceptance tests, commissioning, training, and ongoing customer support.
TeamViewer Pilot
A remote assistance solution powered by Augmented Reality that enables the user to connect with a remote user in the field and see their live smartphone or smart glasses camera view with the enhanced ability to tag real-world objects/controls/parts with 3D markers in the form of arrows and drawings with text notations.
Remote Support/Access/Control
TeamViewer Tensor
A cloud-based enterprise connectivity platform enabling cross-platform remote support, access and control: PC to PC, mobile to PC, PC to mobile, and even mobile to mobile connections that support Windows, MacOS, Linux, Chrome OS, iOS, Android and Universal Windows Platform. Features such as Single Sign-On (SSO) and tracking (audit trails/enterprise reporting) are covered. Built upon the world’s largest remote connection infrastructure already covering 200 countries and connecting more than 2 billion devices.
IIoT Sensors
An IIoT system typically involves sensors installed within industrial machinery which can feed back information on temperature, humidity, current or many other metrics. Via an IoT gateway and a connectivity medium, information from these sensors is relayed to an IIoT platform where it can be processed and automatically acted upon.
BOSCH
BOSCH offers a wide range of sensors – from the programmable XDK platform to the smaller, industrial-grade, multi-sensor CISS device which can operate in harsh environments.
Data Science
Data science uses scientific methods, AI and Machine Learning techniques and algorithms, neural networks, deep learning and advanced data analytics to extract knowledge and insights from “big data” sets gathered in “data lakes” from sensors in machinery. These insights are utilized to provide a high level of operational efficiency and predictive maintenance as well as to enable the production of better machinery in the future.
SOLITA
SOLITA, a leader in the field of AI and Machine Learning technology, employs a large team of data scientists that can develop data science solutions which can predict machine failures, detect product anomalies, optimize machinery and services, predict usage behavior, support preventive maintenance and build better customer experiences.
Security
IoT Security is the technology area concerned with safeguarding connected devices and networks when connecting machinery within a machine builder’s customers’ premises.
