Abstract

The Industry 4.0 concept relies on the integration of its composing elements using modern tools. These modern industrial plants must consider concepts like the Internet of Things, Cyber-Physical Systems and Smart Devices. The main features involved in these architectures are the local control, machine-to-machine information exchange, and human-to-machine interface through virtualization. The integration of these elements to create a connected environment presents a challenge to developers and engineers. In this text, we perform a theoretical analysis of the main constraints and challenges in designing and implementing novel applications using digital twins, robots, wearable devices, and other control interfaces. To evaluate the theoretical approach, we performed a series of tests in prototype environments.
