Abstract:
Industry 4.0 has been bringing loads of new digital solutions applied to industrial process, increasing industry's efficiency and improvements in process efficiency, productivity gains, people and operations safety. Among those innovations, it's whorty to highlight: Internet of Things (IoT), Digital Radios, Cloud Computing, Bigdata and Artificial Inteligence (AI). This review looks forward to describing the Samarco's strategy for Industry 4.0 solution through a real time monitoring plataform and a radio communication system focused in people safety and productivity growth. This solution is suported mostly by the advent of Digital Radios and IoT technologies for industrial purpose and allows people and equipament geolocation, emergency signaling, access control to risk area, local visualization and employes in potential risk situation. The combination of Digital Radios and IoT nets has been breaking limits created by lack of connectivity in the minning process in order to enable a set of applications for digital transformation in Samarco.
