As factory automation increases along the road to Industry 4.0, digitalization affects several business areas.
Manufacturing and logistics operators (as well as related businesses) are increasingly in need of real-time data and control to enable IoT applications and devices. For example, Machine-2-machine, last-yards and smart vehicle control connections.
Trulifi is an infrared-based wireless connectivity solution that offers physical security, low-latency, and is immune to interference in challenging environments. Where radio is not an option, Trulifi enables the applications of industry 4.0.
With speeds up to 845 Mbps, highly reliable wireless connections up to 20 meters can be established.
