Abstract

This demonstrator, which is completely realized in software and hardware, shows the influence of latency in a very descriptive and interactive way with the example of a Mobile Edge Cloud or legacy cloud operated ball sorting machine. The demonstrator has every essential element that would be found in a real production machine or control loop. It consists of a sensor, a controller and several actuators. Through the Control and Monitoring Interface, the audience of the demo has a simple and self-explanatory way to interact with the demonstrator. In addition the advantages of Multi-access Edge Computing compared to legacy cloud computing and embedded computing are explained in the context of industry 4.0.
