Description (no more than 300 words)
The 19th and early 20th century were about the industrialization of physical and electro-mechanical systems like the steam engine and the utility grid. The latter half of the 20th century has been about information (cyber) systems and the Internet. The 21st century is about the integration of the two and proliferation of cyber-physical systems (CPS) that address the challenges stemming from global social, economic and ecological trends such as resource constraints, demographic shifts, human capital constraints. The burden of challenges, from pandemics such as COVID-19 to environmental issues, is accelerating the need for cyber physical systems. An exemplar of a cyber physical solution is the “art to part” journey of a personal protection mask that starts by scanning the face of the individual and ends with a custom-fitted mask created by a 3D digital printer.
