Giving Super Powers to the People on the Shop Floor
Just like we all use tools like computers and mobile phones to augment our everyday lives, we need technology that gives power to the people on shop floors.

This session explores the implications of the Internet of Things for digital manufacturing by introducing an intelligent operating system for the digital shop floor, enabling real-time collaboration, integration, and analytics that bring people and machines together to ensure products move on time and on budget.
