  • Publication number: 20210096541
    Abstract: An industrial device supports device-level data modeling that pre-models data stored in the device with known relationships, correlations, key variable identifiers, and other such metadata to assist higher-level analytic systems to more quickly and accurately converge to actionable insights relative to a defined business or analytic objective. Data at the device level can be modeled according to modeling templates stored on the device that define relationships between items of device data for respective analytic goals (e.g., improvement of product quality, maximizing product throughput, optimizing energy consumption, etc.). This device-level modeling data can be provided to higher level systems together with their corresponding data tag values to high level analytic systems, which discovers insights into an industrial process or machine based on analysis of the data and its modeling data.

  • Patent number: 10832548
    Abstract: An industrial visualization system defines and enforces a virtual safety shield comprising a three-dimensional space surrounding a wearer of a client device. The dimensions of the virtual safety shield are defined by a specified safe distance surrounding the user that allows sufficient reaction time in response to notification that the wearer is at risk of interacting with a safety zone, hazardous machinery, or vehicles within the plant. If a boundary of a safety zone or hazardous equipment falls within the three-dimensional space defined by the virtual safety shield, the system sends a notification to the user's client device, or places the hazardous equipment in a safe operating mode.

  • Publication number: 20200120143
    Abstract: An industrial security policy configuration system generates and implements security policies for industrial automation systems based on design data for the industrial systems generated by device manufacturers, system integrators, original equipment manufacturers, or the owners of the industrial assets during the design of the industrial systems. the collected design data to a security rule set defining device-level communication privileges. The system translates the collected design data to a security rule set defining device-level communication privileges, which are then translated to a comprehensive set of security policies customized to the requirements of the industrial systems represented by the design data. By leveraging the rich set of available design data to identify or infer security requirements and generate suitable security configurations, the system can mitigate the need to manually configure security policies based on human judgments regarding normal and abnormal network traffic.
