Despite our fourth Sheffield IoT Meetup - Industry 4.0 and Smart Manufacturing - coming at a time of great uncertainty across the globe, we were thrilled to see so many members join our new online platform to continue exploring the opportunities IoT presents for smart manufacturing.
The operations of many supply chains today are hampered by lack of integration between constituencies, in particular a lack of integrated real-time data. This project will provide a demonstration platform that integrates Internet of Things (IoT) and operational data to illustrate efficiencies gained.
‘IoT for care’ is an emerging field that faces its own specific barriers as well as those common to all IoT domains. This project draws upon experiences of those at the forefront of the field to develop resources and plot a course towards widespread adoption of IoT for care.
Developing a toolkit, guidance and training materials to enable local authorities to take ownership of their data and transform city services.
