Networked edge cloud architecture
The combination of edge and cloud in a common architecture enables modern production with real-time components and big data analysis. At the same time, this structure enables the flexible use of networked robots.

The data from IoT-enabled components is stored and processed in the cloud or at the edge. Among other things, a joint project aims to improve processes and increase efficiency as well as integrate a new standard for data collection in intralogistics.
The integration of cloud and edge solutions in cyber-physical production systems opens up new potential in automation. Among other things, research focuses on economic solutions for the challenges of digitalization.
