Precision: Principles, Practices and Solutions for the Internet of Things

Discover how the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is transforming industries through connected machines, intelligent systems, and data-driven business solutions. In *Precision*, Dr. Timothy Chou introduces the fundamental concepts of IoT and explains how precision technologies can improve industrial operations, enhance productivity, and create new business opportunities. The book is divided into two parts. *Precision: Principles and Practices* presents a vendor-neutral, acronym-free framework for understanding the Industrial Internet of Things. It explores the core principles of connected industrial systems and demonstrates how these ideas can be applied to real-world challenges. The second part, *Precision: Solutions*, brings these concepts to life through 14 real-world case studies. Readers will discover how manufacturers develop precision machines and how organizations use connected technologies to achieve better operational and business outcomes. Covering industries such as energy, water management, healthcare, transportation, oil and gas, construction, agriculture, mining, gene sequencing, and motorsports, the book illustrates the wide-ranging impact of IoT across modern industry. Written for business leaders, engineers, manufacturers, technology professionals, and students, this book provides a practical introduction to industrial connectivity, precision engineering, and the opportunities created by data-driven industrial innovation.
