ast decade’s investment and progress of industrial automation within fixed process manufacturing is moving to the field. And with it, great opportunity to improve beyond the factory walls to the air, land, waterways and every near or remote location field operations happen. Smart technologies like artificial intelligence, edge processing and robotics make it possible for in-field automation to greatly improve. These technologies provide more flexible, responsive, and disconnected solutions. As a result, the demand for in-field industrial automation enabled by smart systems is strong and grows exponentially across industries.
