of the Industrial Revolution
Historical Background (IR 1.0, IR 2.0, IR 3.0)
 The four types of industries are:
The primary industry involves getting
raw materials e.g. mining, farming, and
fishing.
The secondary industry involves
manufacturing and Electrical power
introduced e.g. making cars and steel.

Tertiary industries provide a

service and digital logic circuit
e.g. teaching and nursing.

The quaternary industry involves

research and development industries ,
Networking Cyber Security e.g. IT.
 Industrial Revolution (IR 1.0)
• IR was first coined in the 1760s, during the time where this
revolution began
• Transition to new manufacturing processes
– Hand production methods to machines
– The increasing use of steam power
– The development of machine tools
– Rise of the factory system
 Industrial Revolution (IR 1.0)
• The First Industrial Revolution began in the 18th century through the
use of steam power and mechanization of production.
• What before produced threads on simple spinning wheels, the
mechanized version achieved eight times the volume in the same
time.
• The use of it for industrial purposes was the greatest breakthrough for
increasing human productivity.
• Instead of weaving looms powered by muscle, steam-engines could
be used for power.
• Developments such as the steamship or (some 100 years later) the
steam-powered locomotive brought about further massive changes
because humans and goods could move great distances in fewer hours
 Industrial Revolution (IR 2.0)
• The Second Industrial Revolution began in the 19th
century(somewhere in the 1870s) through the discovery of
electricity and assembly line production.
• The development of methods for manufacturing interchangeable
parts and widespread adoption of pre-existing technological
systems such as telegraph and railroad networks.
• Electrical power introduced
Industrial Revolution (IR 2.0)
 Industrial Revolution (IR 3.0)
• Began from the late 1950s. “Digital Revolution”
• Factor
– The mass production
– Digital logic circuits and its derived technologies such as the
computer, hand phones and the Internet.
– Still being practiced until this current day, for example – the
proliferation of digital computers and digital record
• Since the introduction of these technologies, we are now able to
automate an entire production process - without human assistance.
• Known examples of this are robots that perform programmed
sequences without human intervention
 Fourth Industrial Revolution (IR 4.0)
• Advancements
– Robotics, Internet of Things (IoT)
– A cyber-physical system
• Mechanism that is controlled or monitored by computer-based algorithms,
– Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machines.
– Artificial Intelligence- for Autonomous Vehicles and Automated Robots
• This is characterized by the application of information and
communication technologies to industry and is also known as
"Industry 4.0".
• It builds on the developments of the Third Industrial Revolution.
• Production systems that already have computer technology are
expanded by a network connection and have a digital twin on the
Internet so to speak.
 Fourth Industrial Revolution (IR 4.0)
• This is the next step in production automation.
• The networking of all systems leads to "cyber-physical
production systems" and therefore smart factories, in
which production systems, components and people
communicate via a network and production is nearly
autonomous.
 Role of Data for Emerging Technologies
• Data, in today’s business and technology world, is essential.
• Data is regarded as the new oil and strategic asset since we
are living in the age of big data, and drives or even
determines the future of science, technology, the economy,
and possibly everything in our world today and tomorrow.
• Scientific methods is based on data
• The world is full of data. Every action that you do is data.
Every word you speak is a data. You walk, you dance, you
speak, you sleep, you study, everything is data.
• So, data acts as an input and in this world, whatever
systems exist, it will take data as an input
Enabling devices and network (Programmable devices)

• Atmel’s AT91CAP7L • Xilinx Virtex 6 and Spartan
• Cypress Semiconductor’s 6
programmable system-on- • Xmos Semiconductor L
chip (PSoC) family series
 Human to Machine Interaction
• Human-machine interaction (HMI) : refers to the communication
and interaction between a human and a machine via a user
interface.
• HCI (human-computer interaction): the study of how people
interact with computers and to what extent computers are or are
not developed for successful interaction with human beings.
• How do users interact with computers?: The user interacts
directly with hardware for the human input and output such as
displays, e.g. through a graphical user interface. The user interacts
with the computer over this software interface using the given input
and output (I/O) hardware.
 Human to Machine Interaction
• How important is human-computer interaction?
– Improve the interaction between users and computers by
making computers more user-friendly and receptive to the
user's needs.
• Advantages
– Simplicity, ease of deployment & operations, reduce solution
design time and integration complexity and cost savings for
smaller set-ups.
 Disciplines Contributing to Human-Computer
Interaction (HCI)
• Cognitive psychology: Limitations, information
processing, performance prediction, cooperative working,
and capabilities
• Computer science: graphics, technology, prototyping
tools, user interface management systems.
• Linguistics.
• Engineering and design.
• Human factors
• Artificial intelligence.
