COVID-19 impact on Industry 5.0

The coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic may also in addition promote the development of Industry 4.0 which could lead to a faster 5th industrial revolution. Technologies that we find in Industry 4.0 like Big Data (BD) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) might also additionally result in new systems and devices that could have a great impact on healthcare systems. The final gap among human beings and machines is Society 5.0, which is also called the super-smart society that employs AI in healthcare manufacturing and logistics. Different Industry 4.0 and Society 5.0 technologies including AI and Robotics being inspected to manage the rate of transmission of COVID-19 globally. What capabilities does advanced information technologies inclusive of AI, BD, and Information of Technology (IoT) have on the healthcare industry. The progression of Industry 4.0 to Society 5.0 given the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in accordance with the technological strategies being studied and employed.

The role and impact of Industry 4.0 is increasing due to the world entering into different phases of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Different industries, including the healthcare sector, have been disrupted in one way or another which is reflected by the dwindling global operations and dearth of Smart Manufacturing (SM) technologies.

• Major industrial shifts throughout history were driven by natural disasters or outbreaks of infectious diseases threatening public health security.
• Industrial revolutions, one after the other, have reshaped the face of the modern world, and they have dominated human evolution. As we rely more and more on technology, Industry 4.0 technologies including Artificial Intelligence (AI), Big Data (BD), the Internet of Things (IoT), digital platforms, augmented and virtual reality, and 3D printing, Industry 5.0 is dawning upon the world in unforeseeable ways.
• Society 5.0, known as the super-smart society, may be the final gap between machine and man. The most important technologies of Society 5.0 are AI, robotics, 3D printing and digital platforms. BD and AI have already changed the way humans go about their daily jobs. The current generation is aiming towards a more personalized future due to the recent adoption of AI algorithms.

1. The first industrial revolution began in 1780 with the introduction of mechanical production facilities using steam and water power.
2. In 1870, the second revolution led to large scale production of electricity to support the groups of labor. The technological advances across all the industries included the use of new materials, and energy sources such as coal, steam engine, petroleum, and electricity. The revolution was marked by efficient and mechanized production requiring lower costs of human energy.
3. The third industrial revolution commenced in 1970 when the first Programmable Logistic Controller (PLC) Modicon 084 was built. It was tagged by the automation in production of Information Technology (IT) and electronic systems.
4. The fourth industrial revolution led to the creation of Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) and the development of technologies such as BD, IoT, 3D printing and AI. CPS, an Industry 4.0 tool, is an automated, and connected device which has the capability of learning from the physical environment which is responsive and can act independently. The IoT is a network over which the CPS connects to the internet in an transparent and secure manner.
5. Finally, a Smart factory uses a combination of cyber physical systems and humans with support from intelligence and automation. The importance of Industry 4.0 is examined because smart Society 5.0 is built upon Industry 4.0, forming a community that is human-machine centered

Since its introduction in 2011, Industry 4.0 has introduce ways to rediscover growth and transformation in technology. The core force enabling Industry 4.0 sustainability and development is the exchange of information between companies, machines and humans. Production companies and the health industry have experienced the digitization dawn. The person-centered application of Industry 4.0 to digital health and care services has gained traction through an mixed care model built on technological capabilities. Recent development and deployment of Point of Care (POC) diagnostics for screening of the COVID-19 outbreak may help mitigate the current stress on the health system. The rise in health innovations such as AI technology coupled with POC diagnostics can enable and support self-testing in isolation post-exposure. Virtually, all objects today are equipped with sensors that identify the location or status of an individual at any time. Information is being processed and made available in larger volumes than what we have experienced in the twentieth century. The COVID-19 pandemic could force the world into the next industrial revolution creating Society 5.0 due to the fact that the technologies currently in Industry 4.0 cannot process the amount of information that needs to be processed in the world today. AI holds strong relevance as its computing power has noticeable doubled every two years. AI has not only become “smart enough” to win humans at games, but extracts meaning out of BD. The challenges that smart technology and ongoing transformation in traditional manufacturing have on COVID-19 and Society 5.0 needs to be researched and analyzed to have a better understanding.
