A Date with Data: Taking Stock of the Emerging Digital Industrial Economy

Todd Alhart
September 27, 2015
There wasn’t much talk of Messi but a lot of conversations involving machines talking to machines in certain corners of Barcelona in mid-September, when more than 4,000 humans from over 50 countries converged on this Catalan city for the inaugural Internet of Things Solutions World Congress. This week, the digital caravan moves to San Francisco, where GE is holding its annual Minds + Machines conference in San Francisco – the font of Internet disruption.

Wind in the Cloud? How the Digital Wind Farm Will Make Wind Power 20 Percent More Efficient

September 27, 2015
Few people embody the backyard inventor better than Charles Brush. In 1887, he built behind his mansion in Cleveland, Ohio, a 4-ton wind generator with 144 blades and a comet-like tail, and used it to power a set of batteries in his basement. Although by today’s standards the huge, 60-foot machine was massively inefficient, it started a new industry that pushed generations of engineers to make it better. Now GE has decided to go further and improve on the entire wind farm in one fell swoop.

Breaking New Ground: Digital Twin Helps Engineers Design Megawatt-Sized Circuit Breakers

September 23, 2015
We’ve all stood in the dark at least once after getting tripped up by power-hungry appliances. Typically, the remedy is just steps away: a quick flip of the circuit breaker switch, and you’re back in business.
It’s a simple fix, but it involves complex physics. “Circuit breakers protect our homes from electricity overload,” says Tim Ford, senior product manager for industrial circuit breakers at GE’s Industrial Solutions business. “This sounds easy, but the amount of energy they are often called on to dissipate is like grabbing the flywheel of a running car and stopping it.”

What does the Industrial Internet mean to you?

September 23, 2015
The Industrial Internet can feel unfathomable, partly because so much of the action is taking place offscreen—beyond your view. The very nature of machine-to-machine communications is that humans frequently don’t need to do anything.
Computer programs sift machine-performance data in real time for patterns and anomalies, and embedded algorithms in the software determine what the computer will tell the machine to do next.
