Autonomous asset: concept and solutions

The article presents directions and tools for creating the concept of an autonomous asset, and gives examples of ongoing projects that correspond to the main focus of research at the current stage: the development of industry 4.0 infrastructure and complex engineering and solution typing.

Materials and methods. The analysis of the business needs of representatives of various types of assets was carried out. The interest in the development and creation of the concept of an autonomous asset has been revealed, but a differentiated approach to each specific asset is needed. Digital R&D projects are being implemented to remove uncertainties and increase the autonomy of objects within the framework of creating the concept of an autonomous asset.

Results. A matrix of the target level of autonomy was formed, taking into account the type of maturity of the asset and the availability of infrastructure, three development directions were identified for creating the concept of an autonomous asset, and tools for creating the concept of an autonomous asset were analyzed. As an example, the interim results of projects related to the development of industry 4.0 and complex engineering are given.

Conclusion. The presented results allow us to conclude that there are tools in the company and the need for an integrated and differentiated approach to create the concept of an autonomous asset.
