Method, System, and Computer Program Product for Harmonizing Industrial Machines with an Intelligent Industrial Assistant Having a Set of Predefined Commands

A system for harmonizing at least one industrial machine having a proprietary input/output interface with an intelligent industrial assistant having a set of predefined commands, comprising:

• at least one first industrial machine having a first proprietary input/output (I/O) interface having a plurality of states, each state associated with at least one of an input or an output of the first proprietary I/O interface;
• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions to direct the at least one processor to:
• map, within the intelligent industrial assistant, at least one state of the plurality of states to each command of a first subset of a set of predefined commands;
• generate, within the intelligent industrial assistant, a first customized interface for the at least one first industrial machine based on the mapping of the at least one state of the plurality of states to each command of the first subset of the set of predefined commands;
• and
• connect, within the intelligent industrial assistant, to the at least one first industrial machine using the first customized interface.

A computer program product for harmonizing at least one first industrial machine, the first industrial machine having a first proprietary input/output (I/O) interface having a plurality of states each associated with at least one of an input or an output of the first proprietary I/O interface, with an intelligent industrial assistant having a set of predefined commands, the computer program product comprising at least one non-transitory computer-readable medium including one or more instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:

• map, within the intelligent industrial assistant, at least one state of the plurality of states to each command of a first subset of the set of predefined commands;
• generate, within the intelligent industrial assistant, a first customized interface for the at least one first industrial machine based on the mapping of the at least one state of the plurality of states to each command of the first subset of the set of predefined commands;
• and
• connect, within the intelligent industrial assistant, to the at least one first industrial machine using the first customized interface.
