Signal K - The Internet of Things Afloat & Next Generation Interfacing

March 1, 2016

Many boaters will be familiar with the NMEA data standard for interfacing on board electronics and allowing devices like instruments, GPS, chart plotters and autopilots to communicate and share information. The first variation of NMEA 0180 was developed nearly 40 years ago allowing devices to communicate using a simple two wire interface. Other versions then followed leading to NMEA 0183 which became ubiquitous. Over the past 10 years, the newer NMEA 2000 standard has become widely used by all major manufacturers’ of marine electronics. Many, like Navico and Raymarine “customise” this standard using their own physical connector format (Simnet and SeaTalk NG respectively) but the core data used for interconnection is based on and compatible with the NMEA 2000 data standard.

The Industrial Internet of Things Networking Framework

whitePaper | August 3, 2022

The Internet of Things (IoT) fuses the digital realm with the real-world of objects and places and enables digital twins of them. These technologies drive innovation in application areas such as manufacturing, utilities, transportation, logistics and smart cities. The adoption of IoT technologies in industrial settings, known as Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), enables gathering and analysis of data across machines, physical assets and processes to improve the flexibility and efficiency of systems at reduced cost. IIoT will increase the productivity, shift economies, innovate business models and foster industrial growth: a digital transformation (DX).
