The automation giant sees its combination of digital technologies—including AI, digital twins, digital thread and SDA—as the ...

As hyperscalers struggle with delays, permitting fights, and mounting community backlash on new data center builds, overlooked brownfield facilities, including dark sites, are emerging as a practical ...

How microcontrollers and single-board computers coordinate high-speed RF acquisition and generation. How SCPI and UART commands let simple controllers use advanced measurements without FPGA ...

Abstract: This work presents a cost-effective approach to implementing programmable logic controllers (PLCs) for educational use, using commercial microcontrollers (Arduino UNO, ESP8266 NodeMCU) and a ...

In complex industrial environments, traditional industrial robot control systems are difficult to meet the requirements of automated production for industrial parts sorting and assembly tasks. The ...

As difficult as it is for a human to learn ambidexterity, it’s quite easy to program into a humanoid robot. After all, a robot doesn’t need to overcome years of muscle memory. Giving a one-handed ...

The durable Arduino Opta micro PLC enables industrial and building automation. It integrates with existing machines, devices, and the modular Arduino ecosystem – from sensor modules to SOMs and ...

Solar photovoltaic (PV) technology converts sunlight into electricity using semiconducting materials like silicon. When photons strike these materials, they transfer energy to electrons, generating an ...

The ESP32-PLC project, developed by hiperiondev, aims to transform the ESP32 microcontroller into a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) for industrial automation and control systems. PLCs are ...

This research aimed to design, fabricate, and test a prototype of a 1-feed-line automatic chicken feeder, determining the designed functionality and feeding time, and comparing the performance of an ...
