Any company can exploit IoT capabilities to optimize the use of resources, business processes, product quality. Moreover, Enterprises can then create innovative business models and competitive ‘pay per use’ or hybrid models for their industrial products, and additional services developed using ‘things information’. By creating its own Internet of Things Enterprises can get full and continuous information from devices, machines and systems, enable control and interactions, and use these features in new or existing business applications. This is why in Alleantia they talk about the Internet Of Own Things (IOOT), that every company must implement for supporting its specific business. | Supercharge your workforce with Skylight Deliver higher productivity, higher quality, and reduced costs with wearable computing and Augmented Reality solutions.

At a higher level IoT is often divided into two categories; Applications requiring human interaction, characterized as Human IoT (HIoT) and the Industrial IoT (IIoT). Common for both IIoT and HIoT is that an ideal roll out of technologies would require IPv6, and in a perfect world this would include pathways to include the huge installed base of legacy industrial devices. Mandatory elements of the IIoT would also be end-to-end security, no single point of failure, autonomous node and application discovery just to mention a few objectives typically identified by IT professionals. | The Proudsmart Cloud is a cloud platform that fully support Industrial Wireless Sensor Network and protocols like 3G/4G, WiFi, Zigbee, BLE, BACnet, Modbus, OPC and etc. Proudsmart Cloud platform provides intelligent IoT service for manufacturing enterprises based on cloud service, Container service and Big Data analysis.
