Use Cases Next-GENeration IoT sOlutions for the Universal Supply chain www.ingenious-iot.eu ingenious_iot @ingenious_iot ingenious_iot Automated robots with heterogeneous networks use case foresees the use of 5G-enabled multi-task automated robots in future smart factory production lines or warehouses, targeting the interoperability of wireless and wired environments and the tactile internet where sensors and actuators synchronously work with latencies of few milliseconds. Improved driver’s safety with Mixed Reality (MR) and haptic solutions is a safety-centric use case that foresees to remotely control transportation of goods with Automated Guided Vehicles using tactile internet, edge computing and immersive enablers (MR engines, haptic gloves). Employees will be safe, away from hazardous working locations such as fuel port terminals. Inter-modal visibility in the supply chain with containers use case aims to provide End-to-End (E2E)intermodal asset tracking with satellite connectivity for enabling enhanced real-time monitoring of shipping containers when they are sailing through oceans without connectivity to terrestrial IoT networks. Supply chain ecosystem integration use case overcomes the absence of a virtual interoperability IoT and DLT layer that will be capable of securely and semantically exchange the information flows between the different actors that can take part along the supply chain ecosystem. Transportation platforms health monitoring use case pursues the asset health tracking in order to decrease operational costs and increase asset availability with new data-based service provided by low-power edge distributed network and intelligent sensor modules installed in the transportation platforms. iNGENIOUS aims to design and evaluate the Next-Generation IoT (NG-IoT) solution, with emphasis on 5G and the development of Edge and Cloud computing extensions for IoT, as well as providing smart networking and data management solutions with Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. The project embraces the 5G Infrastructure Association (5G IA) and Alliance for Internet of Things Innovation (AIOTI) vision for empowering smart manufacturing and smart mobility verticals.
