The goal in this area is to capture insights from data available in the the whole production line, collected using appropriately positioned sensors. Correctly analysing and modeling the data enables smart functionality oft he machines and systems and increases autonomy.
The data from the sensors, machine logs, control outputs, and expert information can be used to provide answers to many relevant questions, for example, to reveal the conditions when a machine stops functiong correctly, and to provide an estimation of the quality of the resulting products during production.
