【數字工業革命】那些被物聯網滲透的行業

From the manpower efforts to the digital technologies, Internet of Things (IoT) has changed the way we interact with the world around us. This means bringing new opportunities from every challenge and new risks to the most personal areas of our lives.

從傳統人力到數字技術，物聯網(IoT)已經改變了我們與周遭世界的互動方式。這意味著每一個挑戰和新的風險都在私人生活領域為我們帶來了新機遇。

 

The real revolution in the digital industries of IoT is agriculture, city infrastructure, medical care and healthcare.There are new IIoT technologies like equipment sensors and real-time analysis.

How IIoT has leveraged the technological gap in context of every aspect of industrial transformation.The technological revolution is in a phase before the digital industrial revolution can really take flight. New technologies are invented and then industries themselves identify the technological gap within themselves and they look for new technologies. Then the technologies have to be further configured specifically for individual industries. The crux of the story is that the technology often remains the same — it’s just the use cases for different industries that finally cause the needed changes.The same goes with the Industrial IoT. The following are the industries which are currently leveraging the benefits of the Industrial IoT.

工業物聯網如何在產業轉型的各個方面平衡技術差距呢？在數字工業革命真正起飛之前，技術革命正處於一個階段，新技術發明出來後，各行各業找出自身的技術差距，以尋求新技術。緊接著，必須進一步為各個行業專門配置這些技術，問題的關鍵在於技術往往保持不變——最終導致所需更改的只是不同行業的用例，工業物聯網亦如此。 下面就帶大家來看一看當前得益於工業物聯網風生水起的幾大行業。
