What is there to discover in this beautiful truck? Anyone who wants to know should come to Hall 9 at the Hannover Messe. It's worth a visit! @hannover_messe #hm19 @ifmelectronic @ifmelectronicde #vfv19

[Roger Varma @rogervarma_ifm]

Connecting millions of IoT sensors and devices will be the next breakthrough by satellite or cellular networks. Two very good technical approaches.

Gesture control is the perfect use case for automotive and mobile machine applications!
@ifm_USA @pmdtec

[pmdtechnologies ag @pmdtec]

We are enabling in-car #gesturecontrol for #automotive in the @byton M-Byte SUV with our #3D #ToF camera. Look at this awesome Shared Experience Display! 🙌🏻 To learn more read the press release here: https://t.co/THXT19mpDT

[Tom Panzarella @tpanzarella]

It is very cool to see the work we did @loveparkrobotic now at a global scale as part of @ifmelectronic

It is humbling.

IO-Link technology is the “building block” for Industry 4.0 in process market.
Bidirectional communication to sensors allow faster recipe changes. More information on existing wiring makes it possible for real time quality!

2019 will be an exciting year for ifm activities in mobile robotics!
@ifm_USA #Industry40 @ifmelectronic @tpanzarella

[Tom Panzarella @tpanzarella]

The website for our team, the robotics group @ifmelectronic, is now online! Congrats to @Otis_GP for leading that effort. It is cool to see some of our work @loveparkrobotic blended together with ifm and @pmdtec into a cohesive offering. It was a productive 2018! More to come...

Ethics and doing the “right” thing in business is a must. Employee engagement is directly connected to the “sense of purpose” of a company!

[Knowledge at Wharton @whartonknows]

Can employees at tech firms have an impact on their firms’ ethics? “Things are slowly changing as employees see that they have power, too” says @Kennedy_School’s @goshd7 #WhartonKnows https://t.co/gMmof9c9UR

[Roger Varma @rogervarma_ifm]

Nice to see a simple approach for connecting a sensor on the factory floor to the cloud. Trapped data in sensors can be unlocked to improve processes

[Roger Varma @rogervarma_ifm]

Connected sensors will have a big impact on the maintenance and verification process in Industry 4.0 factories.
Time based maintenance will be replaced with predictive. Process drifts will be replaced with Real Time Quality.
