EarlyBirds has emerged as a popular Open Innovation and Industry Intelligence platform that has enabled collaboration between early adopters and innovators. The Australian company has aided businesses utilise the power of new-age digital technologies to steer ahead industries across sectors in the 21st century.

Over the recent few years, there has been a phenomenal turn in the manner in which industries function and manufacture goods, thanks to Industry 4.0. The fourth industrial revolution or Industry 4.0 defines the enduring transformation of traditional manufacturing and industrial processes via integration of digital technologies.

In the present era, technologies emerging in Industry 4.0 steal the spotlight and grab eyeballs of early adopters. The use of smart devices has completely altered the way of monitoring and controlling the different production techniques. Also, varied tech features, such as the Internet of Things (IoT) empower wide networks of connected devices to gather and share data in a blink of an eye.

Industry 4.0 allows big data analytics to process data generated by IoT devices at a remarkable speed, providing data for quality control, predictive maintenance, and process optimisation.

Furthermore, advanced robotics and automation systems are being widely used to smoothen manufacturing operations, uplift efficiency, and lower human involvement.

Another prevalent tech tool is 3D printing technology that enables fast prototyping as well as production of complex parts, replacing conventional manufacturing processes.

Now, emphasis is also laid on enhancing the way humans interact with technology. More and more technologies, including AR and VR, are being employed for visualisation of complex processes, training, maintenance, increasing worker efficiency, and eliminating errors. A combination of physical machinery and digital elements, forming cyber-physical systems are being used to connect the physical and digital worlds. This allows real-time monitoring and control of manufacturing processes.

Importantly, manufacturing data is gradually being shifted to cloud platforms to strengthen cybersecurity. Cloud platforms store and process information for easy access to authorised users from anywhere.

If any business intends to savour the perks of the ongoing industrial revolution, they may connect with and sign up as an Early Adopter on the platform at https://earlybirds.io/en/early_adopter.

The organisation has been dedicated towards finding the best technical solutions for pressing business and technical challenges. It offers two programs for the Early Adopters - Challenger Program and Explorer Program. The two programs help businesses stay ready to handle an ever-changing market.
