Mobile App for Process Environments

The iQagent is an application that enables users to display live process data, documents, and resources about a given point of interest (POI) while connected to the plant wireless network. POIs are configured on the plant floor and then are tagged using a QR Code. POIs contain a Data View showing live process values and Info View containing links to documents and resources. On the plant floor, users can scan the QR Code and view data or other resources.
