Cameras are playing an increasingly important role in production and quality control. They relieve the burden on people and expand the possibilities of visual inspection. They are part of entire networks of components. In order to cope with the large amounts of data, the industry relies on "intelligent" cameras that not only provide data, but also deliver results. But what must the camera be able to do, what makes it intelligent? Dr. Albert Schmidt, Managing Director of Baumer's Vision Competence Center, provides answers.

Because as the complexity of the supply chain ecosystem increases, so do the potential risks. Cybersecurity is therefore no longer an end in itself, but a crucial prerequisite for maintaining competitiveness in times of digital transformation.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is already playing an important role in manufacturing today. Predictive maintenance is just one of many applications based on it. This requires many components to communicate with each other. Werner Rieche, Managing Director of Software AG Germany, explains in an interview why the IoT is becoming increasingly important for smaller companies too, what requirements a company needs to fulfill in order to set up an IoT infrastructure and where the advantages of the new solutions lie.
