The Internet of Things (IoT) is rapidly transforming how we do business and live our daily lives. Sensor technologies and real-time data acquisition and analysis can track almost any aspect of what we do.

Connected IoT devices look to provide enhanced automation for home settings and the workplace, including healthcare, agriculture, and pet care.

The future of additive manufacturing will rely on artificial intelligence and digital engineering advances to become a more robust and flexible manufacturing model.

Industry 4.0—digital processes such as the Internet of Things, automation, robotics, and additive manufacturing—has a disruptive impact on mechanical engineering design. As Industry 4.0 takes hold, engineers need to embrace these tools and technologies.

Turning Down the Volume on the Open Window If the world must be cacophonous, our homes and offices, at least, should be a refuge from the clangor. However thick the walls, though, windows are the weak link. If you want to let in light, to say nothing of air, you will also be letting in sound. Now, researchers at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore have found a solution. They applied ...

The COVID-19 pandemic is speeding the adoption of digital engineering technologies. The pandemic has forced many engineers into work-from-home situations. Digital engineering tools that support remote work and distributed collaboration are being considered more thoroughly than ever before. While much of the digitization is focused on CAD, the IoT is making its way into the design space.

As Industry 4.0, the Internet of Things, and nanotechnology take center stage, engineers, scientists, and other researchers will continue to push the limits of material science.
