Introduction

William Pagnon, founder and CEO of Freelance Robotics, is a recognised expert on the 4th industrial revolution. He delivers talks on this subject in various contexts to help people understand the implications of the 4th industrial revolution for our work and society as a whole.

Here is a video from William’s talk given at the Redland City Chamber of Commerce business breakfast. This talk puts the 4th industrial revolution in the context of previous revolutions, identifies key technologies that will drive this revolution and describes the potential changes in our work and society.

Smart Factories

Smart factories, emblematic of the 4th industrial revolution, represent a shift where the entire process, from product order to delivery, becomes automated.

Rather than harbouring concerns about the rise of automation, we should warmly embrace it. This wave of automation brings about enhancements for both consumers and producers. Furthermore, it doesn’t just boost efficiency; it also nurtures innovation, benefiting numerous industries and elevating the overall quality of life.

In this video, William discusses the fundamental concepts underlying the smart factory and practical implementation, offering examples of accessible machinery and technology for a seamless transition to fully automated, smart factories.
