Leveraging the Internet of Things for a More Efficient and Effective Military

The Internet of Things (IoT) is transforming the way that organizations communicate, collaborate, and coordinate everyday business and industrial processes. Adoption of IoT technologies has proven well suited to organizations that manage large numbers of assets and coordinate complex and distributed processes. From monitoring machines on a factory floor to tracking supply chains to automating sophisticated, and often dangerous, industrial processes, IoT technologies are optimizing the performance of equipment, improving efficiency, and protecting the safety of workers. Decades ago, the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) played a critical role in pioneering the sensor, computer networking, and communications technology that serve as the foundation of IoT. In the late 1990s, the Department articulated a vision for “network-centric” warfare that integrated three domains—physical, information, and cognitive—to enhance information sharing and collaboration. Network-centric warfare has been a driving force behind recent defense transformation and has led to the adoption of IoT-related technologies in key areas.

Next Generation Mission Critical Networks

whitePaper | May 31, 2023

In a society moving towards digital, where access to data in almost real time is key to every single industry sector, Public Safety (PS) services are seen as laggers when it comes to take most of the technology available to enable agencies and emergency services to benefit the best information available. By relying in voicecentric technologies, Public Safety services cannot support themselves for instance on simple video-based use cases, which would leverage decision making processes with insightful information that could for example make a difference between life and death.

Industrial Internet of Thing

whitePaper | January 2, 2020

The brief report provides a positioning of developments in the area referred to as Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) – loosely interpreting this as the industrial developments associated with the Internet of Things (IoT). IoT in turn describes the extension of the application of internet communications beyond computers and networked devices to also include the networking of everyday objects. In the context of industrial operations these objects are typically equipment, products and raw materials.
