Sensor Hardware and Software: Understanding the Connection Between Collecting and Analyzing

Sensing used to be a very hardware-centric practice. Sensors would collect process or production data, then feed those data points into the controller in order to create a certain logical actuator output. In modern production, sensors can also provide insights for diagnostics or optimization. However, surprisingly few engineers really understand both the hardware and software sides of machine data.

Learn from an expert with a background in both sensor hardware and IIoT software analytics as we explore the various solutions (and best practices) that ease the pathway to productively using sensor information.
