Summary

We are sure this book was filled with real-life applications regarding how automation helps humans to manufacture products that we use daily. We saw how humans have built machines, lines, and factories for manufacturing various products. In Jacob, we saw an engineer who will witness how the world has moved forward and how they can apply various principles they study in college.

As we witnessed, the world of automation is vast and exciting. Jacob was exposed to the world of automation during his internship, and it was an eye-opener for him. With Josef’s help, guidance, and mentoring, he was able to build on the principles and concepts he was studying in college. Over the entire exercise, he was able to build various small kits and program them for usage in his daily work. Some kits included drip irrigation for his small garden, water level management of the overhead tank at his home, and some small home automation projects.
