Today, there exists a changing paradigm for every organization towards Digital Transformation in alignment with rapid growth of Industrial Automation. As automation impacts the business-returns directly, every organization, be it Designing, Manufacturing, Assembling or Logistics sector, sincerely is getting transformed as Digital Industries. The major objective of this course is to equip learners with advanced technical process of Data Collection in such Digital Industries. Thus, comprehensive course on “Applied Industrial IoT” provides a deep dive into the evolution of industrialization, from the phases of the Industrial Revolution to the transformative landscape of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). The course begins with a historical review of industrial evolution, understanding core IIoT concepts, and dissecting the drivers, benefits, and challenges of IoT through real-world examples like Dam Water Level Monitoring and STP Monitoring. Next, the course delves into Solar Plant Management, Utility Monitoring in Railways, and a detailed breakdown of IIoT Architecture components. Engagements for learners include hands-on experiences with Annunciator Monitoring and Dairy Product Processing. The course makes the learners understand sensor fundamentals, types, and selection criteria. The course also explores applications in Pharma, Electricity distribution, and Energy Measurement. Practical demonstrations on Machine Status highlight real-world relevance, explore Edge Computing intricacies, Gateway types, and configurations. Practical insights are gained through Packaging, Bottle Manufacturing, and demonstrations on Pulse counting and Video Analytics. Grasp IoT Connectivity, Wireless Protocols, and witness an IIoT example with a Wheel Loader. Real-world applications in the course include Automotive Component Casting, Diesel Generators Monitoring, Aerospace Parts Manufacturing, and Bulk Milk Cooler Monitoring. Finally, the course caps off with IIoT Security Concerns and a case study on an IoT Connected Workplace Solution.
