The industrial automation industry is undergoing a transformation driven by the needs of end users seeking to improve their CAPEX and OPEX, avoid being locked into proprietary solutions and get ahead of the technology curve. The success of this transformation will depend on broad industry collaboration in the form of standards and open source projects, which lower the barrier to entry for industrial organizations by ultimately reducing the cost and complexity of automation deployments.
In this video, Intel’s Christine Boles and Gary Martz will discuss the history of standards and open source projects and their important role in the process automation industry’s transformation, as well as examples of how Intel is helping lead the way in this area.
