Monitoring a Manufacturing System: Using Bluetooth Low Energy

Resumo

The accelerated pace of development of domestic industrial production stimulates the search for new, flexible and cost-effective systems for collecting and processing data on the condition of equipment, movement of materials and personnel actions in real time, as traditional monitoring systems turn out to be expensive and complex.

The authors consider Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology to be one of the promising directions in creating alternative wireless solutions. In the given article we have studied the methods of using BLE in organizing monitoring of a production system. The main advantages are given, and schemes of work with a practical example of developing a special protocol based on the specified technology are proposed.
