Modern smart factories rely on autonomous mobile robots, connected machines, drones, and sensors that must exchange data instantly and reliably. This session explores how 5G’s high bandwidth, ultra-low latency, and network capacity create a unified communication layer for managing these autonomous systems at scale. We will examine how 5G simplifies deployment and monitoring across large facilities and how edge computing enables real-time processing of high-definition data so autonomous devices can act without delay. The discussion highlights practical pathways for accelerating hyperautomation and improving operational resilience.

• How 5G provides a single, scalable network for AMRs, robots, drones, and connected equipment across the factory floor.
• How ultra-low latency and edge computing enable real-time decision making and uninterrupted autonomous operations.
• How centralized 5G device management improves deployment, monitoring, and troubleshooting without location or capacity constraints.
