Helping the imagination run wild

In conjunction with the Microsoft Azure cloud computing platform and the Fischertechnik Learning Factory 4.0, PmOne is testing the latest technologies in the field of industrial IoT and edge computing. The solution also makes it possible to familiarize potential customers with the challenges of IoT applications. "With the learning factory, we cover several objectives at once: We are researching new product fields, showing customers what is possible with our software and at the same time expanding our own product knowledge"explains Stefan Balke, Teamlead Data Science at PmOne.

Stefan Balke makes it clear how beneficial the use of the Learning Factory 4.0 is in discussions with customers: "The interaction between sensors and machines on the production floor and modern cloud architectures requires a certain amount of imagination. A simulation in a protected testbed makes these complex issues tangible for our customers."
