NI宣布開設(shè)工業(yè)物聯(lián)網(wǎng)實驗室

January 11, 2017 – NI, the provider of solutions that are designed to enable engineers and scientists to solve the world’s greatest engineering challenges, announced the opening of the NI Industrial IoT Lab at its Austin headquarters.

2017年1月11日消息——NI，這家旨在幫助工程師和科學(xué)家們解決世界上最大工程挑戰(zhàn)的解決方案提供商，宣布在其奧斯汀總部開設(shè)NI工業(yè)物聯(lián)網(wǎng)實驗室。

The NI Industrial IoT Lab focuses on intelligent systems that connect operational technology, information technology and the companies working on these systems. Designed with flexibility for the future, the lab’s operational focus includes areas such as microgrid control and communication, advanced control for manufacturing, and asset monitoring for heavy equipment.

NI工業(yè)物聯(lián)網(wǎng)實驗室專注于將操作技術(shù)、信息技術(shù)和專注于這些系統(tǒng)的公司連接起來的智能系統(tǒng)。該實驗室設(shè)計靈活，面向未來，其運營重點包括微電網(wǎng)控制和通信、先進制造控制，以及重型設(shè)備資產(chǎn)監(jiān)測等領(lǐng)域。

Additionally, the NI Industrial IoT Lab fosters collaboration between different companies to improve interoperability. In this space, companies with expertise in communications protocols, controller hardware, I/O components, processing elements and software platforms come together to validate end-to-end solutions that can dramatically change the way businesses operate. Companies sponsoring the NI Industrial IoT Lab include: Analog Devices Inc, AVnu Alliance, Cisco Systems, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Industrial Internet Consortium, Intel, Kalypso, OPC Foundation, OSIsoft, PTC, Real-Time Innovations, SparkCognition, Semikron, Viewpoint Systems and Xilinx.

此外，NI工業(yè)物聯(lián)網(wǎng)實驗室促進不同公司之間的協(xié)作，以提高互操作性。在這一領(lǐng)域，具有通信協(xié)議、控制器硬件、I / O組件、處理元件和軟件平臺專業(yè)知識的公司聚集在一起，驗證端到端解決方案，從而大大改變企業(yè)的運營方式。贊助了NI工業(yè)物聯(lián)網(wǎng)實驗室的公司包括：ADI、AVnu聯(lián)盟、思科、惠普、工業(yè)互聯(lián)網(wǎng)聯(lián)盟、英特爾、Kalypso、OPC基金會、OSIsoft、PTC、Real-Time Innovations、SparkCognition、賽米控、Viewpoint Systems以及賽靈思。

“We are excited to strengthen partnerships with other world-class technology companies. A working showcase for new technologies can help all companies involved drive breakthrough innovations for utility grids, manufacturing, asset health monitoring and several other industries,” said Jamie Smith, business and technology director at NI.

NI業(yè)務(wù)和技術(shù)總監(jiān)Jamie Smith表示：“我們很高興與其他世界一流的技術(shù)公司加強合作。新技術(shù)的成果展示可以幫助所有相關(guān)公司在電網(wǎng)、制造業(yè)、資產(chǎn)健康監(jiān)測和其他幾個行業(yè)實現(xiàn)突破性創(chuàng)新。”

The lab is a working showcase for Industrial IoT technologies, solutions and systems architectures. Through demonstrators, such as the on-site Industrial Internet Consortium (IIC) testbeds, participating companies can promote innovative solutions and drive discussions with the domain experts that see the real-world challenges.

該實驗室是工業(yè)物聯(lián)網(wǎng)技術(shù)、解決方案和系統(tǒng)架構(gòu)的成果展示。通過示例，如現(xiàn)場工業(yè)互聯(lián)網(wǎng)聯(lián)盟測試平臺，參與公司可以推廣創(chuàng)新的解決方案，并與了解現(xiàn)實挑戰(zhàn)領(lǐng)的域?qū)＜艺归_討論。
