Abstract

Internet of Things (IoT) is a concept that proposes the inclusion of physical devices as a new form of communication, connecting them with various information systems. Nowadays, IoT cannot be reduced to smart homes as due to the recent technological advances, this concept has evolved from small to large-scale environments. There was also a need to adopt IoT in several business sectors, such as manufacturing, logistics or transportation in order to converge information technologies and technological operations. Due to this convergence, it was possible to arrive at a new IoT paradigm, called the Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT). However, in IIoT, it is also necessary to analyze and interact with a real system through a virtual production, which refers to the use of Augmented Reality (AR) as a method to achieve this interaction. AR is the overlay of digital content in the real world, and even play an important role in the life cycle of a product, from its design to its support, thus allowing greater flexibility. The adoption of interconnected systems and the use of IoT have motivated the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) because much of the data coming from several sources is unstructured. Several AI algorithms have been used for decades aiming at “making sense” of unstructured data, and transforming it into relevant information. Therefore, converging IoT, AR, and AI makes systems become increasingly autonomous and problem solving in many scenarios.
