In this individual assignment, you are required to do research on IIOT and its application in the manufacturing industry.

Please type the content of the report in which shall include the following topics:

1. Introduction: Definition of IIOT/IOT and its application in manufacturing industry. Identify companies (minimum two examples) which adopted the use of IIOT in the manufacturing process.

2. MainBody: Identify main components used in IOT/IIOT devices. One of the main components is sensor. Explain how the companies utilize the data collected from IIOT sensors/machines. The sensors can be any type of sensor listed below.

(Note: Vision sensors, proximity sensors, temperature sensors, humidity sensors, accelerometer, and sound sensors)

How do companies couple AI/Machine learning and IIOT to maximize manufacturing process efficiency?

Identify the challenges or risks associated with IOT/IIOT in manufacturing. Discuss how can these challenges be mitigated.
