IoT

Dataset of V2V (vehicle to vehicle communication), GPS, inertial and WiFi data collected during a road vehicle trip in the city of Porto, Portugal. Four cars were driven along the same route (approx. 12 km), facing everyday traffic conditions with regular driving behavior. No special environments or settings were chosen, other than keeping the vehicles in communication reach of each other for as long as possible while being safe and compliant with the road rules.

Many applications benefit from the use of multiple robots, but their scalability and applicability are fundamentally limited when relying on a central control station. Getting beyond the centralized approach can increase the complexity of the embedded software, the sensitivity to the network topology, and render the deployment on physical devices tedious and error-prone. This work introduces a software-based solution to cope with these challenges on commercial hardware.

IoT Gateway Architecture

Cyber-Physical Production Systems (CPPS) are the key enabling for industrial businesses and economic growth. The introduction of the Internet of Things (IoT) in industrial processes represents a new Internet revolution, mostly known as 4th Industrial Revolution, towards the Smart Manufacturing concept. Despite the huge interest from the industry side to innovate their production systems, in order to increase revenues at lower costs, the IoT concept is still immature and fuzzy, which increases security related risks in industrial systems.
