Opportunities
5G IOT (Internet of Things) brings a number of benefits and new opportunities to the business world, allowing new business opportunities.
5G is the fifth generation of mobile phone technology, which originally started with the analogue TACS system, back in the 1980s.
Although data SIM cards for IOT applications are already available for use with 3G/4G, 5G is the first mobile (cell) phone technology specifically designed for use with IOT.
5G offers fast Gigabit data transfer rates, with very low latency.
The 5G network is also very reliable, with a dense number of local cells giving good redundancy, in case one cell should fail.
At least this is what is claimed, though of course history shows us that the mobile phone system can temporarily go down.
5G IOT is set to be a massive growth area, with estimates of 76 million 5G connections by 2025 (Source: ‘IOT Analytics’).
IOT Potential Uses
Robotics
5G allows the effective connection of Industrial robots.
When we think of robots, people imagine different things, but robotic machines range from static robots, such as those used in car production, to autonomous guided vehicles (AGVS).
Other applications include:-
Video Surveillance
Smart Intelligent Mobility
Smart Grid Automation
In Car Infotainment
Vehicle Telematics
The use cases above, will be expanded on when I get more free time.
So check back regularly.
