Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)

The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) refers to the application of the Internet of Things (IoT) principles in industrial settings. It involves the use of smart sensors, actuators, and other devices networked together to monitor, collect, exchange, and analyze data. This network of intelligent devices aims to enhance efficiency, reliability, and overall performance of industrial processes. IIoT is used across various industries, including manufacturing, transportation, oil and gas, and power generation, enabling processes such as predictive maintenance, enhanced field service, energy management, and asset tracking[1][2][4].
