IIoT based platform for Industry 4.0 [Project website]
In this project, we are designing and implementing an IIoT platform for training students in industry 4.0 technologies. The platform will integrate a central server with controlled process modules using portable, compact, and low-cost modules operated remotely by the students. At the end of the project, a training program will be offered in conjunction with strategic Colombian industries.
Collaborators: Diseño y Automatización Industrial S.A.S. (Colombia).

This work presents the design, implementation, and validation of an IoT system for an experimental laboratory microgrid developed at Universidad Industrial de Santander. The main design phases of the IoT system are described, beginning with the definition of requirements and extending through the component selection. Validation tests are proposed to verify the functionalities of the IoT system.
