Abstract

Significant changes in the field of information and communication technology also influence process automation and offer a great opportunity. Future automation concepts in the process industry such as Industry 4.0 will ensure a competitive advantage. Smart sensors provide services within a network and use information from it. In November 2015 the technology roadmap „Process Sensors 4.0“ was presented, which identifies the necessary requirements for such smart process sensors. These will enable new business models for users, device manufacturers, and service providers.
