description Industry 4.0 (I4.0) is a multidisciplinary engineering principle combing the IoT (Internet of things), big data, and cloud computing to cope with the dynamic changing industry. In this paper, the DDS (data distribution service) communication protocol was employed to implement a cloud platform for data acquisition from various sensors on a precision legacy machine tool including an accelerometer and sound, temperature, brightness, and humidity sensors. The sensor signals were acquired using Raspberry Pi as the edge device, then published to the cloud using the DDS application, and stored in the MySQL database. Using the Django web server, the acquired sensor signals could be shown in real time on the webpage via a combination of MQTT and Node-RED. In addition, the motion displacement of the machine tool detected by the encoder could be recorded through the edge device for further performance examination. With the proposed DDS cloud platform, it is demonstrated that a legacy machine can enable sensing and communication abilities such that the development of a smart machine is achievable for future I4.0 application.
