A case study of the application of IoT technology in the manufacturing industry

When Kevin Ashton, direct of the Auto-ID Center at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, introduced the term “Internet of Things” (IoT) to the world in 1998, IoT has been developing rapidly and applied to more and more technology industries. The concept of IoT has had major changes in manufacturing production processes. By means of this, this article used a case study to understand the advantage of IoT and how it may benefit manufacturing processes.
