Above: The Smart "Wire-less" extension cable concept,
connecting
stationary
and
mobile assets seamlessly.
The Industrial
Internet mandates a real time
(isochronous) wireless network capable of many
hops.
Meshdynamics' unique field tested
meshing capabilities
keep both stationary and mobile machinery and operators
connected at all times. Extensive customer supervised field
tests confirmed glitch free video and sensor streams between
vehicles. The machines may be mobile and may need to be part
of a dynamic mobile mesh network. The stationary nodes
may be stand alone, as shown above, powered by battery and
solar panels. The network is formed within minutes of powering
up the nodes. The mobile units are portable may be taken down
at the end of the activity and transported to another site.
These characteristics may it ideal for impromptu mesh network
set up and tear down.
In other applications, the mesh network uses stationary nodes
to form a backhaul infrastructure with mobile nodes used to
extend the network where needed. This is relevant to outdoor
industrial automation situations such as oil and gas.
Meshdynamics is also used in military environments where real
time SCADA communications are needed to operate in harsh
or disruptive environments.
Industrial Internet of Things (IOT) Collaborations.
Meshdynamics and our licensees are jointly developing scalable
approaches to managing the network "Edge". Applications on mesh nodes monitor and
manage enterprise
assets at the edge. Data is analyzed in the cloud.
Strategies are devised to automatically tune performance for the
networked control system: supervisory cloud controller, node resident real time
control and monitoring applications, and a plethora of IP and Non IP based end IOT "edge" devices.
Machine controller applications in mesh nodes
orchestrate local and remote (supervisory) control loops.
