Trusted measurement in the era of autonomous operations
The manufacturing sector is predicting a shortfall of 1.9 million manufacturing jobs over the next 10 years. As industry moves towards autonomy, trusted measurement will be essential for assessing the quality of the decisions these technologies make. From optimizing production lines and validating critical infrastructure to enabling scientific discovery, organizations continually rely on data to guide decision-making.
Burkhard Boeckem is CTO at Hexagon.
Metrology plays a critical role here. It provides the accurate measurement data that many workers and automated systems use as a foundation to make more informed decisions. As precision measurement technologies combine advanced sensors, software, and analytics, they enable organizations to optimize processes in real time.
In a world where microscopic inaccuracies can have consequences at scale, trusted measurement not only assures quality but is also a strategic capability that underpins safe, efficient, and data-driven industries.
From sport to science
Trusted measurement is the backbone of high-performing...
