Real-Time Communication

Real-time communication refers to the nearly instantaneous exchange of information with minimal latency between the sender and receiver. It is a type of telecommunications where data is transmitted and received without significant delays, allowing for live and interactive interactions. An example of real-time communication is robotic telepresence. Unlike email or non-real-time internet communication, real-time communication ensures that data is immediately accessible and does not involve significant delays in data transmission.

IO-Link Wireless allows for the transmission of sensor data and control commands with low latency, ensuring that devices can communicate with minimal delay, which is crucial for the proper functioning of automated systems on the factory floor. It is an example of real-time communication technology used in industrial settings to improve efficiency and flexibility in automation processes.
