InsightProducts - Actionable Insights into Product Service Delivery
Acquiring qualitative product data requires a well-thought and optimised sensor selection and deployment, adapted to the product infrastructure, configuration and operating environment. To help companies in this process, the Belgian non-profit organisation Sirris, the FZI Research Center for Information Technology (FZI) and the Hahn-Schickard-Gesellschaft für angewandte Forschung e.V. have initiated the collective research project 'InsightProducts - Actionable Insights into Product Service Delivery’ under the CORNET framework.
The rise of sensing, IoT, Big Data for fleet management and the shift from preventive to predictive maintenance drive the growth of the machine condition monitoring market. However, the increasing complexity of the fields of manufacturing, automotive, energy and medical engineering domains requires robust techniques for real-time monitoring, for detecting the inception and progression of faults, for reducing downtime and increasing reliability, and for enabling flexible maintenance scheduling.
InsightProducts targets the enhancement of digital products, based on actionable insights into their design, delivery & operations, based on acquired data intelligence knowledge on the connected product. The FZI focuses on optimised system architectures, sensors selection, communication and data acquisition.
