IIoT Solutions Powering Industry 4.0

The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is revolutionizing industries from manufacturing and industrial automation to oil and gas exploration, refining, and distribution, to agriculture. Connecting sensors, machinery, devices, and other physical objects to one another or a network unlocks a wealth of capabilities. The ability to gather and transmit data is a significant benefit of IIoT devices and networks. Having access to real-time data allows businesses and operators to improve organizational efficiency, operational productivity, and the health of the connected machinery through data-based, predictive maintenance.

For more than 35 years, Sealevel has developed and manufactured serial communications, digital I/O, IIoT, and rugged computing products that are trusted and deployed by integrators, military contractors, commercial customers, and OEMs. Sealevel industrial computers, data acquisition modules, and IIoT hardware and software solutions enable continual connectivity and control.

The Challenges of Deploying AI to the Edge

Article

Artificial intelligence (AI) is in the midst of rapid, seemingly exponential advancements. However, most of what is seen in the news and read in articles deals with the consumer side of the technology. While AI technology is also rapidly improving in industrial settings, some significant challenges remain, specifically in AI edge computing applications.

The issues presented by AI edge computing can be categorized into hardware limitations, software and algorithmic challenges, security and privacy concerns, and deployment and maintenance difficulties.

Sensor & Processor Technology for Autonomous Vehicles and Automated Driving Systems

Article

Autonomous vehicles and autonomous driving have the potential to fundamentally change the transportation industry. Some of the immediate benefits include an increase in the overall safety of vehicles, more mobility for many different population segments like the elderly, and more efficient roadways with less traffic. Beyond safety and increased efficiency, the industry will ultimately have tremendous financial implications as well.

Beyond the ultimate goal of a fully autonomous vehicle, simply by developing and working toward that technology, the components that make up Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) improve. The movement towards autonomous vehicles is best viewed as incremental steps, rather than one or two giant leaps.

IIoT Penetrates Metal Fabrication with Asset Management and Environmental Monitoring

Case Study

An automotive manufacturer approached Sealevel seeking an Industrial Internet of Things metal fabrication solution. Their primary concerns were asset reliability management and environmental monitoring. Their plants use a semi-automated welding process that employs both skilled welders and programmed robotic tools. Although semi-automatic welding removes the highest risks from employees, it can increase downtime instances, especially without proper maintenance. Moreover, it cannot completely eradicate dangers such as toxic air pollution, unsafe temperatures and explosions. This company sought a solution that would provide predictive maintenance and mitigate risks of operating conditions.

The company needed an IIoT system that updated their current operations by adapting existing equipment and systems. The application needed to run on a wireless area network due to poor cellular reception in the building. They requested a scalable, user friendly solution with a cloud Software-as-a-Service platform. The solution also needed to provide notifications for remote monitoring and critical system remote actions.

Ruggedized Edge Computing for Oil & Gas Exploration

Case Study

A natural gas company wanted to begin an exploration campaign. It would be monitored from their field base located at a current fracking site. From the base, they needed to supervise progress, run analytics and other operational software and perform maintenance procedures as needed for equipment. The team needed a ruggedized, powerful computer at the base that could withstand intense shock, vibrations, and extreme operating temperatures.

On their exploration campaign, they wanted to incorporate an edge computing system for asset management, data analysis, and crisis control operations. Due to the high cost of exploration, they wanted to predict maintenance measures and prevent prohibitive downtime periods. They also wanted to mitigate energy waste: they needed to measure and record energy consumption by machine assets to optimize the process. They requested a text notification system that delivers warnings and a remote trigger function to shut off processes not hardwired in. The system also needed to transition past the exploration phase to monitor pressure and flow of pipelines successfully constructed.
