Internet of Things
Since 1975, Westermo has delivered reliable, industrial communication. As a product manager at Westermo, I see a trend towards a smarter society, in the future.
I see a trend with a higher degree of connection to equipment and people. It will contribute to positive business results for those who see the opportunities and are willing to face the changes.
I believe, with an intelligent network infrastructure, we can improve operations and increase security. The trend towards the Internet of Things (IoT) will provide us with valuable insights and solutions that will lead to improvements and efficiency in many industries. I think that many industries will see the benefits and will use the technology increasingly. In the future we will see affiliated factories, machines, tools, smart electricity grids, roads and vehicles. The driving force will be the many benefits that people and businesses can gain through a higher level of connectivity.
IoT will create a whole new game plan for various industries such as Process Automation, Shipping, Transportation and others. There will grow up completely new business models based on how people interact and how information is shared between people and processes. The industries will in the future rely more than ever, on the technology, to improve both safety and service.
The IoT will place new demands on network infrastructure in the future. Many applications will require high-speed connections, low latency response, integrated security and flexible and scalable wireless network infrastructures.
Our products and solutions are based on a system approach that makes it possible to achieve a higher level of security while maintaining the quality, efficiency and automation as the foundation. So I am sure that Westermo meets the future demands of the IoT.
