The Fraunhofer Institute for Production Technology (IPT), together with partners from mechanical engineering, network technology and robotics, is developing an end-to-end real-time-capable communication infrastructure based on 5G mobile technology and time-sensitive networking (TSN). Among the goals of the project is to have highly available, reliable and secure communication of all components and modules: from sensors and actuators at field level via 5G networks and Ethernet connections, to the Fraunhofer Edge Cloud (FEC).
