These sophisticated platforms integrate computational processes with physical operations, creating intelligent networks that can perceive, analyze, and respond to real-world conditions in real time.</p> <h2 id="the-foundation-of-cps-technology">The Foundation of CPS Technology<a class="td-heading-self-link" href="#the-foundation-of-cps-technology">#</a></h2> <p>At their core, Cyber-Physical Systems combine sensors, actuators, networks, and advanced software to create seamless connections between digital intelligence and physical processes. Unlike traditional automated systems, CPS continuously monitor their environment, process vast amounts of data, and make autonomous decisions to optimize performance and adapt to changing conditions.</p>
