Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits IISThe s-net® technology for wireless networking and localization is primarily used where a self-sufficient operation with low data rates is important. Additionally, the self-organizing properties allow the use of sensors in large numbers and in inaccessible locations. This makes it possible to realize extremely diverse applications in the areas of Industry 4.0, Smart City and Healthcare.

Industry 4.0
Industrie 4.0
In recent years, a large number of measurement, monitoring and control applications with wireless sensor networks on the s-net® technology have been implemented based. Especially in the context of Industry 4.0, the s-net® technology opens up an enormous potential for numerous innovative applications.
Typical applications are:
- process control and process monitoring
- intelligent commissioning
- predictive maintenance and condition monitoring
Logistics
Logistics
Within the framework of a Smart City, entire infrastructure areas such as logistics and intralogistics can be networked via an integrated information system. The s-net® technology contributes to an easy information retrieval within the infrastructure in order to save time and resources.
Typical applications are:
- Smart Container
- Smart Tracking
- Condition Monitoring
Healthcare
Healthcare
In times of ever-increasing cost pressure in the healthcare sector, the efficient use of all resources is of central importance. s-net® is used to develop systems for wireless localization and environment monitoring for medical devices, patients or blood reserves. A location-independent support facilitates the everyday life, as relevant data can be transmitted continuously.
Typical applications are:
- Asset Tracking
- Patient management
- Condition Monitoring
