What’s left to do for wireless? Plenty. Wireless technologies from Bluetooth to Wi-Fi to cellular have become so prevalent and always-on that it can seem like they require no thought—but they still need it.
There’s lots of evidence that wireless is ubiquitous, but several crucial jobs must still be completed to deploy it successfully, safely and securely. This is especially true because the numbers of wireless-enabled sensors, instruments, I/O, switches, gateways, access points and other devices in many process applications and facilities are multiplying quickly—with many on automatic guided vehicles (AGV) and other mobile robots and devices.
