There are a LOT of different smart factory technologies out there. This is just a partial list: Industrial Internet of Things, Augmented Reality / Virtual Reality, Predictive Solutions, Digital Twins, Cloud, Blockchain, Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning, Big Data Storage, Data Mining, and Remote Maintenance. And that’s just the software side of things!

In this webinar, I talked about the value to manufacturing provided by each of these solutions and more. I’ll also talk about which ones are foundational and set the stage for others. In the end, I put forth a top five list of technologies to get your company started with its smart factory transformation. I also list out some of the top technologies that don't make the list.
