Popis: Increasing diverse consumer demands, rapid advancements in digital technology and increasing internet access is shifting the market trend to smart, connected and customized Internet of Things (IoT) products. This forces industries to design, develop and mass produce affordable smart customized products to stay ahead of the competition. Early in the product development stage the complete product lifecycle needs to be taken into account. Here, concepts such as systems engineering, mass customization, flexible production planning and smart manufacturing with customer integration, can address new challenges and change the way products are being handled within their life cycles. The motivation of this paper is to present a systematic product development methodology for developing customizable IoT devices, which involve more processes than a mass-produced mechatronic product. Concepts such as variant management and smart service management come into picture to enable an efficient customizable smart product development. Numerous product development methodologies already exist. Therefore, in this paper, a methodology is detailed by identifying, combining and/or enhancing existing product development methodologies to assist in systematically developing smart customizable IoT.
