Industrial
Enabling the Connected Smart Factory
Overview
Industry 4.0 combines the smart factory with connectivity using the Internet of Things (IoT). This will require the intelligence to move to the edge of the industrial network and for systems to make decentralized decisions while communicating and cooperating. These systems will require FPGAs with high bandwidth and processing capabilities while using packet-based interfaces. The edge of these networks will need to be miniaturized for low physical footprints and have immunity against hacking. Machine vision, robotics, thermal imaging, and other technologies will require increased image processing capabilities throughout the network in the most power-efficient manner.
