2020 wurde Hendrik Pekeler zu Deutschlands Handballer des Jahres gewählt. Einer, den du in deiner Mannschaft haben willst. Im vergangenen Sommer stand seine Karriere nach zwei Achillessehnenrissen auf der Kippe. Nach seinem Comeback im Dezember startet er mit dem THW wieder voll durch: Auswärtssieg bei den RN Löwen, Heimsieg gegen den SC Magdeburg, Derbysieg in Flensburg - und das alles innerhalb einer Woche. "Peke" spricht über Dummheiten zu Anfang seiner Profikarriere, das Sieger-Gen beim THW Kiel und bekommt von Schwalbe eine klare Jobempfehlung.
Hendrik spult die Woche seines Lebens ab – einfach so, im Februar.Umfänge, Tempo, Selbstvertrauen: Der New York Halbmarathon kann kommen. Wir schauen genau hin, sezieren die Monster-Woche und fragen uns, ob da überhaupt noch Luft nach oben ist.Währenddessen versucht Hendrik, Schmidti wieder aufzurichten – nur um im nächsten Moment doch mit ihm zu schimpfen. Krank an Karneval? Selbstverschuldet! Da gibt's kein Mitleid und schon gar kein Gejammer.Aber Kopf hoch: Ab Mitte der Woche ist das alles eh vorbei. Die Kröten in Düsseldorf haben es schon angekündigt – das Frühjahr klopft an. Beste Voraussetzungen also, um nach vorne zu schauen.Und apropos: Ziele! Wer noch keine hat, sollte schleunigst welche festzurren. Denn eins ist klar: Wir laufen los.—*
In this episode, we welcome back return guest Hank Bessembinder for a deeply analytical conversation spanning leveraged ETFs, volatility, and the future of performance measurement. Hank walks us through his latest research on leveraged single-stock ETFs, clarifying the misunderstood concept of "volatility decay" and decomposing returns into rebalancing effects and frictions. The results are striking: meaningful underperformance relative to simple levered benchmarks, driven by both embedded costs and the mechanics of daily resets. In the second half, we shift gears to a more foundational question: What is a return, really? Hank challenges the dominance of arithmetic averages and even geometric means, arguing that neither truly captures the long-term investor experience. He introduces the concept of the sustainable return—a measure based on the cash flows an investment can support without depleting capital—and outlines how it could reshape academic finance and real-world financial planning. Key Points From This Episode: (0:01:03) Welcome back to Hank Bessembinder and overview of his recent research. (0:06:16) What "volatility decay" really means—and why the term may be misleading. (0:09:16) Why volatility does not necessarily reduce mean returns in constant leverage ETFs. (0:10:11) Ex-ante decision-making and the wedge between mean and median outcomes. (0:11:26) Single-stock vs. index leveraged ETFs: Similar mechanics, different magnitudes. (0:12:52) Why past research has been so cautionary about long-term use of leveraged ETFs. (0:15:53) How rebalancing costs differ for long and short leveraged products. (0:16:57) The benchmark: Levered buy-and-hold versus constant daily rebalancing. (0:19:46) Empirical results: Long funds underperform by ~0.8% per month; short funds by ~1% per month. (0:21:10) Decomposing underperformance into rebalancing effects and frictions. (0:24:15) The real (though rare) possibility of returns below –100% in leveraged products. (0:27:04) Simulation results over 50 years: Skewness, negative medians, and rebalancing drag. (0:28:38) Why volatility tends to coincide with reversals—and why reversals drive rebalancing costs. (0:31:15) Practical guidance: Who, if anyone, should use leveraged single-stock ETFs. (0:34:58) The limitations of arithmetic means and single-period models. (0:36:55) Why aggregate investors are not buy-and-hold investors. (0:39:17) The shortcomings of arithmetic averages, alphas, and Sharpe ratios for long-horizon measurement. (0:42:38) Why log returns don't solve the core measurement problems. (0:44:56) The case for dollar-weighted returns and the limitations of IRRs. (0:48:18) Modified IRRs and their role in capturing aggregate investor outcomes. (0:50:14) Introducing the sustainable return: Measuring what can be withdrawn without depleting capital. (0:53:22) Expected sustainable return and its close relationship to the geometric mean. (0:56:09) Proportional sustainable return and withdrawal-based performance measurement. (1:00:00) Individual stock returns through the lens of sustainable returns. (1:00:53) Nudging academic finance beyond the "econometric streetlight."

Karneval im Rheinland – zwei Welten: Während Hendrik über 200 km abspult und sich in Top-Frühjahrsform bringt, kämpft Schmidti zwischen Kölsch, guter Laune und Viren darum, sein Training halbwegs stabil zu halten.Der Profi hilft mit Tipps, wir diskutieren die Vorteile von Laufband-Intervallen, Hendrik droppt seine Frühjahrs-Starts (inklusive kleiner Überraschung) und am Ende herrscht rheinische Einigkeit: Egal ob Helau oder Alaaf – Jacques Tilly ist ein super Typ, den es zu unterstützen gilt.

Oh shit, Herr Schmidt! Schmidti ist übel auf die Nase gefallen – oder besser gesagt: auf die Schulter. Bei einem wagemutigen Wald-Trail stürzte er sich den Berg hinab, zack: Schulter raus. Diagnose, Krankenhaus, Vollnarkose, wieder eingekugelt. Aua. Was bedeutet das für Schmidtis Saisonhighlights wie dem Wings for Life World Run oder dem Hyrox?Bei Hendrik läuft es zum Glück deutlich besser: endlich wieder in Düsseldorf, gewohnte Umgebung, voller Kühlschrank und richtig gute Pulswerte. Was das fürs weitere Boston-Training bedeutet und wie komplex der Entscheidungsprozess war, das Kenia-Trainingslager vorzeitig abzubrechen - darüber sprechen wir heute.Es gibt viel zu erzählen – inklusive tiefer Einblicke in die Psyche eines Laufprofis - und jede Menge Trainingstipps für alle: egal ob draußen oder drinnen.Also: Schuhe an, Podcast auf die Ohren – und wir laufen gemeinsam los.
Es wird etwas Neues in Timos Leben geben… Schichtsystem ist nicht gesund und es wird ein großer Schritt... Für die Gesundheit macht Marci aber einiges und er gibt Empfehlungen für Long-Distance-Rollentraining… wir reden über Trainingspläne und Timos Triathlonvorhaben, genau wie Marcis Ultradistanzradrennen, die geplant sind.Wir sprechen über KI als personal trainer.Dann zu den Mails. Wir besprechen das BgH Urteil zum Fall Dr T, der im Falle eines durch ihn begleiteten Suizids verurteilt worden ist. Die genaue Diskussion dazu könnt ihr in dieser Folge und auch in den Folgen aus 2024 zum Thema genau Nachhören. Fakt ist: in Bezug auf dieses Thema ist dringend Handlungsbedarf von Seiten der Gesetzgebung überfällig!Timos Song bei Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/intl-de/album/05V3lQXxyXEO7KBD7Bmh1i?si=xy5ml_7oRNucYhJYlVCvSwWenn ihr Teil unseres Podcasts sein wollt: schreibt eine Email an info@mtma.tv und erzählt uns eure Geschichte, stellt medizinische Fragen, verteilt Lob und oder auch Kritik!

An enlightening discussion with Dr. Hendrik Van den Berg of the University of Massachusetts on his paper from the 2026 American Economics Association Meeting. Instead of looking for new ways or new technology to solve or fix environmental problems, the solutions are already in our hands and within our means. It is mostly a political and not technological question of how we solve our environmental problems as we sometimes step forward but then backward in trying to address environmental concerns.
Warum hat deutscher Wein trotz Weltklasse in der Spitze so wenig kulturelles Momentum – während parallel Pet Nat und Natural-Narrative plötzlich Pop sind? In dieser Episode spreche ich mit Hendrik Thoma (Master Sommelier, Mitgründer von Wein am Limit) nicht über Jahrgänge oder Terroir-Details, sondern über Übersetzung: Sprache, Setting und Bilder – Einladung statt Distanz. Wir starten mit einer schnellen Bestandsaufnahme im 8-Bälle-Format (Skala 1–10) und landen bei harten Punkten: Präsentation und Beratung am Point of Sale, Tonalität in der Gastro, Codes und Binnenlogik der Branche – und gleichzeitig erstaunlich viel Optimismus, dass sich etwas drehen lässt. Zum Schluss öffnen wir gemeinsam eine Flasche als Prüfstein für „Energie“: im Mund, im Ort, im Menschen. Und die Brückenfrage bleibt brutal simpel: Wenn deutsche Weine das alles können – warum kennen sie so wenige 28-Jährige, die gutes Essen lieben? Wenn dir die Folge gefällt, abonniere Genuss im Bus, teile sie mit einem Weinfreund – und schreib mir gern, welche Weine für dich diese drei Ebenen von Energie maximal liefern.
Nein, wir erklären nicht, warum… wir machen einfach weiter, als ob nicht gewesen wäre. Eine volle Folge mit Krankheiten bei Timo, Marcis Radtraining und der Wirkung auf den Stoffwechsel. Wir sprechen kurz über Sportuhren. Es geht in den Mails um Alex Honnold und seine jüngste free Solo Aktion. Dann erneut um die Frage, wie wir denken. Timos erhobener Zeigefinger zielt auf die Frage nach der richtigen Ortswahl für eine geplante Geburt. Wir befassen uns mit der Frage, was beim Segelfliegen Parästhesien an den Händen auslöst und wie die Ausgildung zum Notarzt abläuft. Zum Schluss geht es um die Gewichtigkeit des interdisziplinären Austausch und den traurigen Ablauf schlechter Visiten.Timos Song bei Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/intl-de/album/05V3lQXxyXEO7KBD7Bmh1i?si=xy5ml_7oRNucYhJYlVCvSwWenn ihr Teil unseres Podcasts sein wollt: schreibt eine Email an info@mtma.tv und erzählt uns eure Geschichte, stellt medizinische Fragen, verteilt Lob und oder auch Kritik!

Stephen Grootes speaks to Ninety One founder and CEO Hendrik du Toit, about how Sanlam Investments’ strategic partnership with Ninety One strengthens its growth strategy and active investment capability. In other interviews, Pieter Smit, Acting Director of the Financial Intelligence Centre, and Steven Powell, ENS’s head of forensics, speak about National Treasury’s fast-tracked General Laws Amendment Bill, which would give the FIC explicit authority to conduct lifestyle audits. If enacted, these powers would enable the FIC to proactively identify and drill down on suspected money laundering and illicit financial flows by accessing public databases and sharing data with other agencies, strengthening South Africa’s ability to uncover hidden funds and enforce anti-money-laundering laws.

Eelmise aasta lõpus teatas Ida-Virumaa kutsehariduskeskuse direktor Hendrik Agur, et peatab koolis õppetöö, kuna kõigepealt tuleb õpilastele eesti keel selgeks õpetada. Kas selleks leiti õpetajaid ja kuidas koolielu käima hakkab, sellest me Postimehe otsesaates Hendrik Aguriga räägimegi. Saatejuht on Ulla Länts.
In der neuen Folge von „Couple Challenge“ wird es wieder dramatisch: Emmy Russ zieht ein und mischt die ganze Gruppe auf. Ist Sie im Streit mit Sophie und Hendrik zu weit gegangen? So steht es um die Freundschaft mit Virgina und Andrew Weiss: Das sagen Carina Nagel und Chika!
Wir schalten heute natürlich wieder live nach Kenia: Bei Hendrik läuft's noch zäh, aber immerhin – der erste 30er auf den Dirt Roads steht! Ein dickes Brett.Schmidti dagegen ist endlich wieder schmerzfrei unterwegs – und so glücklich, dass er direkt 20 Kilometer auf dem Laufband wegrollt. Comeback-Vibes!Dazu gibt's einen starken Gast - ein Großer der Frankfurter Rapszene: Bosca. Für ihn gräbt Hendrik tief in seiner Vergangenheit. Wie Bosca Hendriks Laufkarriere geprägt hat, wie und warum Bosca (bürgerlich: David) seine Liebe zum Laufsport entdeckt hat und was für erstaunliche Parallelen Boscas und Hendriks Karrieren verbindet – all das hört ihr in dieser Folge.Außerdem könnt ihr jetzt gemeinsam mit uns Kilometer sammeln: Für das #TeamPfeiffer beim Wings for Life Run. Spult mit uns Kilometer runter – für einen richtig guten Zweck. Tretet hier dem Team Pfeiffer bei: https://www.wingsforlifeworldrun.com/de/teams/QRmM7E?join=1
Heute werden wir politisch und lustig zu gleich. Also eigentlich alles wie immer. Freut Euch auf ein Stündchen KSS, um ein Fenster im Kopf aufzumachen und endlich mal wieder die Seele durchzulüften. Hendrik macht mit Dr. Dynamite ein Quiz und der „brilliert“ (überraschenderweise) sogar in Geografie. Es darf aber auch ein kleines bisschen um Fastelovend gehen und da kann auch Hendrik glänzen. KSS – die Kirmes im Kopf vereint mal wieder alles, was es zu einer gelungenen Freistunde braucht: Hirn, Herz und Heiterkeit!Viel Spaß beim hören und Kölle Alaaf!
Köln–Kenia: Die Leitung steht!Hendrik ist angekommen in Iten, dem Home of Champions – aber der Start in Kenia ist alles andere als reibungslos. Warum die ersten Tage holprig sind, was das mental und sportlich mit ihm macht und wie sich das Leben auf 2.400 Metern wirklich anfühlt, besprechen wir ausführlich.Dazu haben wir einen absoluten Ausnahmegast:Unser Hörer Thomas ist mit 51 Jahren, nach 15 Jahren Laufpause, den New-York-Marathon in unglaublichen 2:35 Stunden gelaufen. Das muss gefeiert werden – und natürlich wollen wir wissen: Wie geht das?! Thomas verrät sein persönliches Erfolgsrezept, seine Denkweise und was sowohl ambitionierte Läufer als auch totale Anfänger wirklich von ihm lernen können.Außerdem blicken wir zurück auf die schnellen Strecken in Spanien, nehmen eure Meinungen mit rein und sind – wie immer – hochmotiviert bis in die Läufer-Zehenspitzen.
Meinungsfreiheit - ein großes Wort, das in Deutschland gerade an ganz konkreten Fällen neu verhandelt wird.In dieser Folge spricht Paul Ronzheimer mit Hendrik Wieduwilt (politischer Kommentator bei ntv, Anwalt und Podcaster) darüber, wo der Staat beim Schutz von Politikerinnen und Politikern zu weit geht - und wo echte Gefahren für Debattenfreiheit entstehen. Ausgangspunkt ist der bundesweit diskutierte Fall um den „Deutschland-Kurier“-Chefredakteur David Bendels und den umstrittenen § 188 StGB („Politikerbeleidigung“): Was sagt das Urteil über den Zustand der Meinungsfreiheit? Und warum halten SPD und Union trotzdem an diesem Paragrafen fest?Außerdem geht es um Hausdurchsuchungen, Strafanzeigen, Meldeportale, den Druck auf Plattformen - und die Frage, ob immer neue Regeln das Problem lösen oder Populisten erst recht Futter geben. Wieduwilt erklärt, warum er Meinungsfreiheit vor allem als Schutzrecht gegen den Staat versteht, aber zugleich ein verrohendes Diskussionsklima sieht. Paul und er sprechen auch über die Allensbach-Zahlen („vorsichtig sein mit der eigenen Meinung“), über mediale Meinungskorridore, Talkshow-Mechaniken und darüber, ob Portale wie NIUS und Apollo Teil der öffentlichen Debatte sein sollten - und was passiert, wenn Politik mit „Feinde der Demokratie“-Rhetorik arbeitet.Wenn euch der Podcast gefällt, lasst gerne Like & Abo da!GANZ NEU: Diskutiert mit Paul, Filipp & unseren Gästen und erfahrt noch mehr über die Hintergründe der Episoden auf joincampfire.fm/ronzheimerPaul auf Instagram | Paul auf XRONZHEIMER. jetzt auch im Video auf YouTube!Redaktion: Filipp Piatov, Lieven Jenrich u.

Während Schmidti gemütlich durch den Schnee in Deutschland stapft, flitzt Hendrik volle Hütte durch die Straßen von Houston. Tempotraining gehört eben auch zum Leben eines Profis – selbst dann, wenn der Koffer nicht mitgeliefert wird.Wie solche Einheiten ablaufen, darüber sprechen wir genauso wie über die rasend schnellen Zeiten aus Valencia. Und ja: Wir sind selbst überrascht, wie viele Menschen dort richtig flott unterwegs sind.Eine neue Folge „Einer rennt, einer hinterher“ gibt's jetzt auf die Ohren – Abfahrt!
Noch immer sind tausende Haushalte in Berlin ohne Strom. Zum Anschlag auf die Stromkabel hat sich die linksextreme «Vulkangruppe» bekannt. Ist das glaubwürdig? Wer ist diese Gruppe? Der Extremismusforscher Hendrik Hansen ist zu Gast bei Simone Hulliger. Die «Vulkangruppe» hat seit 2011 mehrere Anschläge auf kritische Infrastruktur verübt. Der aktuelle in Berlin passe zur deren Handschrift, sagt Hansen. Es sei aber richtig, dass in alle Richtungen ermittelt werde, auch in Richtung Russland. Grundsätzlich traue er der Gruppe aber den Anschlag zu, sie sei bereit, sehr weit zu gehen. Wie verbreitet und wie gewaltbereit ist Linksextremismus in Deutschland? Hendrik Hansen ist Prof. für politischen Extremismus an der Hochschule des Bundes für öffentliche Verwaltung in Berlin.
Endlich wieder zusammen! Hendrik ist zurück aus dem wohlverdienten Urlaub – und Schmidti kann es kaum erwarten, ihn wieder mit neuen Laufzielen vollzuquatschen
Met Jezus kun je alle kanten op: hij is mens én god, geboren uit Maria én uit God de Vader. In de middeleeuwen werd hij vereerd als keizer van het heelal, maar ook intens lijdend afgebeeld, aan het kruis. In de Islam is Jezus de belangrijkste profeet na Mohammed, en ook zonder dat je gelovig bent, kan je in hem de eerste socialist zien, een inspirerende revolutionair of zelfs een feminist.Maar hier, in Onbehaarde Apen, kijken we naar de historische Jezus.Hendrik Spiering, wetenschapsredacteur en historicus, behandelt in dit speciale drieluik voor Pasen drie vragen: Wat weten we over het leven van Jezus? Met welke profeten concurreerde hij? En hoe werd nou juist deze prediker, later, volkomen God?Presentatie: Hendrik SpieringProductie: Mirjam van ZuidamMontage: Yeppe van KesterenFoto: Getty ImagesDe muziek in dit drieluik werd gespeeld door het Dudok Quartet. In het vierde pianoconcert van Beethoven hoorde u ook pianist Hannes Minnaar en altvioliste Simone van der Giessen.

Namibië se eerste anti-koloniale vegter, Kaptein Hendrik Witbooi, word in Suid-Afrika vereer. Hy is onder 48 bevrydingsleiers wat in die nuwe Leiersgallery by Vryheidspark in Pretoria opgeneem is. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het met die leier van die Witbooi Tradisionele Gemeenskap, Kaptein Ismael Witbooi gepraat, wat sê die erkenning bekragtig die langdurige stryd van die Nama-mense.
In the fog-shrouded streets of 1880s Leiden, a woman everyone called "Good Mary" brought food to the sick, consoled the grieving, and prepared the dead for burial. For three years, she was the angel of her neighborhood—the trusted caregiver who helped when no one else would. No one suspected that the porridge she served was laced with arsenic. No one questioned why so many of her patients died. Until a doctor noticed somethingMaria Swanenburg's victims included 27 confirmed deaths among the most vulnerable members of Victorian Leiden's working-class community. Among them were her own parents—Johanna Dingjan and Clemens Swanenburg—murdered for whatever meager inheritance they might leave. Two young sisters died while Maria babysat them, followed by attempted poisonings of six mourners at their wake, including their pregnant mother.The Frankhuizen family lost three members: Maria Frankhuizen, her infant son, and her husband Hendrik, whose agonizing final days would ultimately expose the killer. Elderly neighbors who trusted Maria with their care, relatives who welcomed her help, and community members who saw her as Goeie Mie—"Good Mary"—all fell victim to her arsenic-laced kindness. Another 45 survivors lived with permanent health damage, many walking Leiden's streets on crutches for the rest of their lives.Between 1880 and 1883, Maria Swanenburg systematically poisoned at least 102 people in Leiden, Netherlands, killing 27 and permanently disabling dozens more. Operating in disease-ridden working-class neighborhoods where cholera deaths were common, she exploited the era's limited medical knowledge and the community's trust in her caregiving reputation.Maria purchased arsenic from multiple pharmacies across Leiden—ostensibly for pest control—accumulating lethal quantities without raising suspicion. She poisoned her victims through food and drink while nursing them, then collected on small life insurance policies she'd secretly taken out. When victims displayed symptoms of violent gastric distress, doctors assumed cholera or typhoid. When they died, Maria helped prepare their bodies for burial and consoled grieving families.Her downfall came in December 1883 when Dr. Wijnand Rutgers van der Loeff connected multiple patients with identical symptoms to one common factor: all had been under Maria Swanenburg's care.The Investigation: Dr. van der Loeff's suspicions led police to arrest Maria on December 15, 1883. When searched, she carried multiple insurance policies in her pockets—policies taken out on people currently under her care. Authorities exhumed thirteen bodies from Leiden cemeteries; all tested positive for arsenic.The Trial: Proceedings began April 23, 1885, drawing national attention. Medical experts explained how arsenic accumulated in victims' tissues. Family members testified about their loved ones' rapid deterioration under Maria's care. Throughout, she maintained an eerily calm demeanor, claiming she was being framed.The Verdict: On May 1, 1885, Maria Swanenburg was convicted of three murders from the Frankhuizen family case—though prosecutors had evidence for 27 deaths. She became the first woman in Dutch history to receive a life sentence.The Sentence: Maria was sent to Gorinchem Correctional Facility, where she died on April 11, 1915, at age 75, having served thirty years.Victorian Leiden provided the perfect hunting ground for a poisoner. The textile industry had drawn workers into overcrowded slums where families of ten lived in cramped cottages with earthen floors, no sanitation, and no ventilation. Cholera, typhoid, and tuberculosis killed regularly. Child mortality was staggeringly high. Doctors rarely visited poor districts because residents couldn't pay.In this environment, additional deaths barely registered. Arsenic was legally sold in pharmacies for pest control with minimal regulation—no questions asked, no records kept. The poison was tasteless, odorless, and produced symptoms indistinguishable from endemic diseases without expensive chemical analysis that the poor could never afford.Maria's role as a community caregiver—taking in elderly boarders, nursing the sick, preparing bodies for burial—gave her unlimited access to vulnerable victims and made suspicion seem impossible. She was Goeie Mie. Good Mary. The angel.Primary research for this episode draws from Dutch criminal archives and the work of historian Stefan Glasbergen, whose book on Maria Swanenburg provides crucial contemporary documentation including court testimony and neighborhood accounts.The case fundamentally changed Dutch law. Following Maria's conviction, the Netherlands implemented strict regulations on arsenic sales, requiring pharmacies to maintain detailed purchase records and verify legitimate need. Dutch law enforcement developed standardized protocols for investigating suspicious deaths and recognizing serial murder patterns.The Swanenburg case became a cornerstone study in criminal investigation training throughout Europe, demonstrating how serial killers exploit community trust and institutional blind spots to operate undetected for years.For those interested in exploring this case further:The Rijksmuseum van Oudheden in Leiden maintains records from the Victorian eraDutch National Archives hold original court documents from the 1885 trialAcademic studies on Victorian-era poisoning cases and forensic toxicology developmentMaria Swanenburg's victims trusted her completely. She was their neighbor, their caregiver, their friend. In the fog-shrouded slums of Victorian Leiden, the angel of the neighborhood was actually its deadliest predator—and the 45 survivors on crutches walked as permanent reminders of her betrayal.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/foul-play-crime-series/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Heute haben wir einen echten Hochkaräter zu Gast: „Coach Kuhlmann“, Trainer von Hendrik und Esther Pfeiffer. Gemeinsam mit Timo Kuhlmann blicken wir nochmal zurück auf den Valencia Marathon – und zwar aus Trainerperspektive. Wie erlebt ein Coach dieses ganze Spektakel? Wie viel Nervosität steckt auf der anderen Seite der Strecke?Natürlich geht's auch um Hendriks Training: Wie plant man eine Saison sinnvoll? Wie oft macht Schwelle Sinn – und wann wird's zu viel? Was sagen Puls und Laktat wirklich aus? Und vor allem: Was können Hobbyläuferinnen und Hobbyläufer vom Profi-Training lernen, ohne gleich selbst Profi sein zu müssen?
Glitzer, große Bühne und ganz viel Kaffee: In dieser festlichen Weihnachtsfolge von „5 Tassen täglich“ ist niemand Geringeres zu Gast als Hendrik Menken alias Ricardo M. – Entertainer, Moderator, PR-Profi, Kultfigur der deutschen Bingo-Szene und seit 20 Jahren auf den Bühnen des Landes zu Hause. Gemeinsam mit Moderator Ralf Podszus tauchen wir ein in die Welt des Showbusiness und in die ganz persönlichen Kaffeerituale eines Mannes, bei dem ohne Cappuccino nichts geht. Mindestens sechs starke Cappuccini am Tag, immer mit drei Shots, immer ohne Kakaopulver. Alkohol? Spielt für Ricardo keine Rolle – Konzentration, Energie und Bühnenfokus kommen für ihn ausschließlich aus Kaffee. Neben seiner legendären Bingo-Show, mit der er von St. Pauli bis auf große Firmenbühnen begeistert, sprechen wir über seinen Alltag zwischen Bühne und Backstage, über Improvisation, Lampenfieber, Optimismus und über seine große Liebe zu Italien und Umbrien. Dort verbringt Hendrik viel Zeit, zelebriert die Espressokultur auf der Piazza, trinkt Cappuccino auch am Nachmittag (entgegen aller italienischen Regeln) und findet zwischen Olivenhainen und Espressobar die Ruhe, die es für das grelle Showleben braucht. Auch persönlich wird es: Hendrik erzählt von seinem Optimismustalk „Hier ist das Glas halb voll!“, von seinem Engagement als Testimonial der Diversity-Initiative Welcoming Out und davon, warum Humor, Haltung und gute Laune gerade in schwierigen Zeiten kein Luxus sind, sondern ein echtes Lebensprinzip. Zum Weihnachtsfinale geht es außerdem um Rituale, um besondere Kaffeeorte in Hamburger Hotellobbys, um Umbrien im Winter und um die schönste aller Geschenkideen: gemeinsame Zeit und Kultur.

Kaum ein Lauf wurde in der deutschen Lauf-Community so herbeigesehnt wie der diesjährige Valencia Marathon. Es war nicht nur aus deutscher Sicht ein episches Lineup. Für Hendrik ging es um alles und der Druck war enorm. Hat sich der Höllenritt durch die letzten Trainingsblöcke ausgezahlt? Hier ist unser Recap zu einem Rennen, an das wir uns noch lange erinnern werden.——*

Shawn Tierney here from Insights. And this week on the show, I meet up with Henrik Pedersen and Jacob Abel to learn all about virtual PLCs from OTee. That’s o t e e. And, I just thought it was very interesting. So if you guys have ever thought about maybe running virtual PLCs to test some processes out, I think you’ll really enjoy this. With that said, I wanna welcome to the show for the very first time, Hendrik and Jacob. Guys, before we jump into your presentation and learn more about what you do, could you first introduce yourself to our audience? Henrik Pedersen (OTee): Yeah. Sweetly. So my name is Hendrik. I am the cofounder, COO, OT, a new industrial automation company, that, we’re really glad to present here today. I have a background from ABB. I worked eleven years at ABB. In terms of education, I have an engineering degree and a master degree in industrial economics. And, yeah, I’m I’m excited to be here. Thanks, Rom. And I’ll pass it over to Jake. Jacob Abel (Edgenaut): I’m, Jacob Abel. I’m the principal automation engineer at Edgnot. EdgeNaught is a systems integrator focusing on edge computing and virtual PLCs. My background is in mechanical engineering, and I’m a professional control systems engineer, and I have thirteen years experience in the machine building side of industrial automation, specifically in oil and gas making flow separators. And I’ll hand it back to Henrik here. Henrik Pedersen (OTee): K. Great. So OT, we are a a new industrial automation company, the new kid on the block, if you will. We’re a start up. So, we only started, about three years ago now. And, we focus solely on virtual PLCs and and the data architectures allow you to integrate virtual PLCs in in operations. And, you know, some of the listeners will be very familiar with this first, thing I’m gonna say, but I think it’s valuable to just take a take a little bit step back and and remember what has happened in in history when when it comes to to IT and OT and, and and what really what really happened with that split. Right? So it was probably around the ‘9 you know, around nineteen nineties where the the the domain computer science were really split into these two domains here, the IT and OT. And, and that, that was, that was kind of natural that that happened because we got on the, on the IT side of things, we got Internet, we got open protocols and, you know, we had the personal computers and innovation could truly flourish on the IT side. But whereas on the OT side, we were we were kind of stuck still in the proprietary, hardware software lock in situation. And and that has that has really not been solved. Right? That that that is still kind of the the situation today. And it this is what this is obviously what also, brought me personally to to really got really super motivated to solve this problem and and really dive deep into it. And I experienced this firsthand with with my role in NAD and, how how extremely locked we are at creating new solutions and new innovation on the OT side. So so we’re basically a company that wants to to truly open up the the the innovation in this space and and make it possible to adopt anything new and new solutions, that that sits above the PLC and and, you know, that integrate effectively to to the controller. So I I have this this, you know, this slide that kind of illustrates this point with with some some, you know, historical events or or at least some some some big shifts that has happened. And, Aurene mentioned a shift in nineteen nineties. And it wasn’t actually until ’20, 2006 that Gartner coined this term OT, to explain the difference really what what has happened. And and, you know, as we know, IT has just boomed with innovation since since the nineties and OT is, is, is slowly, slowly incrementally getting better, but it’s still, it’s still the innovation pace is really not, not fast. So, this is also, of course, illustrated with all the new developments in in GenAI and AgenTic AI, MCP, and things like that that is kinda booming on on the IT side of things. And and and yeah. So, but we do believe that there is actually something happening right now. And and we have data that they’re gonna show for for that. Like, the the large incumbents are now working on this as well, like virtual PLCs, software defined automation and all kinds of exciting things going on on the OT side. So we do believe that that we will see, we will see a shift, a true big shift on the OT side in terms of innovation, really the speed in which we can, we can improve and adopt new solutions on the OT side. And this is kind of exemplified by, like, what what is the endgame here? Like, you could say that the endgame could be that IT and OT once once again becomes the same high paced innovation domain. Right. But then we need to solve those underlying problems, the infrastructural problems that are still so persistent on the OT side of things. The fine point of this slide is to just illustrate what’s happening right now. It’s like cloud solutions for control is actually happening. Virtual PLC, software based automation, AI is happening all at once. And we see it with the big suppliers and and also the exciting startups that’s coming into this space. So I think there’s there’s lots of great excitement now that we can we can expect from the OT side, in in next few years. Shawn Tierney (Host): Yeah. You know, I wanna just, just for those listening, add a little, context here. If we look at 1980, why was that so important? Why is this on the chart? And if you think about it, right, we got networks like Modbus and, Data Highway in nineteen seventy eight, seventy nine, eighty. We also got Ethernet at that time as well. And so we had on the plant floor field buses for our controls, but in the offices, people were going to Ethernet. And then when we started seeing the birth of the public Internet, right, we’re talking about in the nineties, people who are working on the plant floor, they were like, no. Don’t let the whole world access by plant floor network. And so I think that’s where we saw the initial the the divide, you know, was 1980. It was a physical divide, just physically different topologies. Right? Different needs. Right? And then and and as the Internet came out in the early nineties, it was it was now like, hey. We need to keep us safe. We know there’s something called hackers on the Internet. And and I think that’s why, as you’re saying in 2006, when Gartner, you know, coined OT, we were seeing that there was this hesitant to bring the two together because of the different viewpoints and the the different needs of both systems. So I think it’s very interesting. I know you listeners, you can’t see this, but I kinda want to go back through that and kinda give some context to those early years. And and, you know, like Henrik says, you know, now that we’re past all that, now that we’re using Ethernet on the plant floor everywhere, right, almost everywhere, on all new systems, definitely, that that becomes the right now on this on the today on the, on the chart. And I’ll turn it back to you, Henrik. Henrik Pedersen (OTee): Yeah. I’ll search that. I just wanna echo that as I think that there are really good reasons for why this has happened. Like, the there has you could argue that innovation could flourish on the IT side because there was less critical systems, right, less, more, you know, you can do to fail fast and you can do, you can test out things on a different level. And so so there’s really lots of good reasons for why this has happened. We do believe that right now there is some really excitement around innovation, the OT side of things and and this pent up kind of, I wouldn’t call it frustration, but this pent up potential, I think is the right word, is is can be kind of unleashed in our industry for for the next, next decade. So so we are like this is really one of the key motivators for me personally. It’s, like, I truly believe there’s something truly big going on right now. And and I I do I do encourage everyone, everyone listening, like, get in get in on this. Like, this is happening. And, you know, be an entrepreneur as well. Like, build your company, build and, you know, create something new and exciting in this space. I think I think this is this is a time that there hasn’t been a better time to create a new new technology company or a new service company in this space. So this this, this is something at least that motivates me personally a lot. So let me move over to kind of what we do. I mentioned I mentioned that we focus solely on the virtual PLC. This this is now presented in the slide for those that are listening as a as a box inside a open hardware. We can deploy a virtual PLC on any, ARM thirty two thirty two and and sixty four bit processor and x eighty six sixty four bit with the Linux kernel. So so there are lots of great, options to choose from on the hardware side. And and, and yeah. So you can obviously when you have a Virtual PLC you can think of it new in terms of your system architecture. You could for instance, you know deploy multiple Virtual PLCs on this on the same hardware and you can also, think about it like you can use a virtual PLC in combination with your existing PLCs and could work as a master PLC or some kind of optimization deterministic controller. So it’s it’s really just opening up that, you know, that architectural aspect of things. Like you can think new in terms of your system architecture, and you have a wide range of hardware to choose from. And, and yeah, So the the flexibility is really the key here, flexibility in how you architect your system. That CPU that you deploy on will will obviously be need to be connected to to the field somehow, and that’s that’s true, classical remote IO, connections. So we currently support, Modbus TCP and Ethernet IP, which is kind of deployed to to, our production environment, as it’s called. So moving on to the next slide. Like, this is kind of the summary of our solution. We have built a cloud native IDE. So meaning anyone can can basically go to our website and log in to into the solution and and give it a spin. And, we’ll show you that afterwards with with Jake. And the system interacts through a PubSub data framework. We use a specific technology called NUTS, for the PubSub communication bus. And you can add MQTT or OPC UA to the PubSub framework, according to your needs. So, and from that, you can integrate with, whatever whatever other, software you might have, in your system. So we have these value points that we always like to bring up. Like, this obviously breaks some kind of vendor lock in in terms of the hardware and the software. But it’s also, our virtual PLC is based on on the six eleven thirty one. So it’s not a lock in to any kind of proprietary programming language or anything like that. There is, there’s obviously the cost, element to this that you can potentially save a lot of cost. We have, we have verified with with with some of our customers that they estimate to save up to 60% in total cost of ownership. This is there is obviously one part is the capex side and the other part is is the opex. And and is this data framework, as I mentioned, is in in in which itself is is future proof to some extent. You can you can integrate whatever comes comes in in a year or or in a few years down the line. And, there’s environmental footprint argument for this as you can save a lot on the on the infrastructure side. We have one specific customer that estimates to save a lot on and this this particular point is really important for them. And then final two points is essentially that we have built in a zero trust based security, principle into this solution. So we have role based access control. Everything is encrypted end to end, automatic certification, and things like that. The final point is, is that this is the infrastructure that allows you to bring AI and the classical, DevOps, the the thing that we’re very used to in the IT side of things. Like, you you commit and merge and release, instead of, instead of the traditional, way of working with your automation systems. So I know this is like, this is pro pretty much, like, the boring, sales pitch slide, but, but, yeah, I just wanted to throw this this out there for for the guys that there is some there is some, intrinsic values underneath here. The way the system works, you will you will see this very soon, through the demo, but it’s basically you just go to a website, you log in, you create a project. In there, you would create your your PLC program, test, you code, you simulate. You would onboard a device. So onboard that Linux device that you you want to deploy on. This can be as simple as a Raspberry Pi, or it can be something much more industrial grade. This depends on on on the use case. And then you would deploy services like, as I mentioned, MQTT and OPC UA, and then you would manage your your your system from from the interface. And, I have this nice quote that we got to use from one of the customers we had. This is a global, automotive manufacturer that, basically tells us that it’s, they they highlighted the speed in which you can set this up, as as one of the biggest values for them, saving them a lot of hours and setting setting up the system. So I also wanted to show you a real you know, this is a actual real deployment. It was it was deployed about a year ago, and this is a pump station, or a water and wastewater operator with around 200 pump stations. They had a mix of of Rockwell and Schneider PLCs, and they had a very high upkeep, and they were losing a lot of data from these stations because they were connected over four g. When the Internet was a bit poor, they lost a bit of data in their SCADA systems, so they had these data gaps and things like that. So pretty pretty, you know, standard legacy setup to be to be honest. Quite outdated PLCs as well. So what they what they did for the first, pump station was they they, you know, removed the PLC. They put in a Raspberry Pi for for, like, €60 or, like, $70, connected it to to a to a remote IO Ethernet IP module they had, in in the storage, and deploy this data framework as I’m showing on the screen now. So so they that was that was the first station they put online, and they they chose a Raspberry Pi because they thought, okay, this is interesting, but will it work? And then they chose a pump station, which was was really just poor from before. So they had very little to to to lose to to deploy on this station. So so, yeah, this has been running for a year now without any any problems on a Raspberry Pi. We have obviously advised against using a Raspberry Pi in a critical environment, but they just insisted that that what that’s what they wanted to do for this first case. Shawn Tierney (Host): And I’ll back that up too. Your generic off the shelf Raspberry Pi is just like a generic off the shelf computer. It’s not rated for these type of environments. Not that all pump houses are really bad, but they’re not air conditioned. And I think we’ve all had that situation when it’s a 120, 130 out that, you know, off the shelf computer components can act wonky as well as when they get below freezing. So just wanted to chime in there and agree with you on that. For testing, it’s great. But if you’re gonna leave it in there, if you were in my town and you say you’re gonna leave that in there permanently, I would ask to have you, assigned somewhere else for the town. Henrik Pedersen (OTee): Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. No. So and and that point is also illustrated with the second station they brought online. So there they chose a much more industrial grade CPU, that, that, was much, you know, cost cost a bit more, but it’s more suited for the environment. And, and yeah. So this was, I can disclose it was a Bayer Electronics, CPU. So so yeah. And, and they reported, some good, good metrics in terms of, like, the results. They they said around 50 on the hardware, 75% on the management of the PLC system. So this relates more to that they have very a lot of, you know, driving out with the car to these stations and doing changes to their systems and, and updates. They no longer have any, any data loss. It’s local buffer on the data framework. They’ve increased tag capacity with 15 x, resulting in in four fifty five x better data resolution and a faster scan frequency. And this is actually on the Raspberry Pi. So so just just think of it as as the the even the even the, kind of the lowest quality IT off the shelf, computers, are are able to to, to execute really fast in in in, or fast enough for for, for these cases. So, Shawn, that was actually what I wanted to say. And, and also, you know, yeah, we are we are a start up, but we do have, fifth users now in 57 different countries across the world. And it’s it’s really cool to see our our our, our technology being deployed around the world. And, and yeah. I’m really, really excited to to, to get more, users in and and hear what they what they, think of the solution. So so yeah. I’ll I’ll with that, I don’t know if, Shawn, you wanna you shoot any questions or if we should hand it over to Jake for for for a demo. Shawn Tierney (Host): Yeah. Just before we go to Jake, if somebody who’s listening is interested, this might be a good time. It said that, you already talked about being cloud based. It’s, o t e e. So Oscar Tom, Edward Edward for the the name of the company. Where would they go if if they like what Jake’s gonna show us next? Where will they go to find out more? Henrik Pedersen (OTee): Yeah. So I would honestly propose that they just, reach out to to me or Jake, on on one of the QR codes that we have on the presentation. But they can also obviously go to our website, 0t.io,0tee.io, and just, either just, log in and test the product, or they could reach out to us, through our website, through the contact form. So yeah. Shawn Tierney (Host): Perfect. Perfect. Alright, Jake. I’ll turn it over to you. Jacob Abel (Edgenaut): Thanks, Shawn. Fantastic stuff, Henrik. I wanna take a second too to kinda emphasize some of the technical points that you, presented on. Now first, the the fact that you have the built in zero trust cybersecurity is so huge. So, I mean, the OT cybersecurity is blowing up right now. So many certifications, you know, lots of, consulting and buzz on LinkedIn. I mean, it’s a very real concern. It’s for a good reason. Right? But with this, zero trust built in to the system, I I mean, you can completely close-up the firewall except for one outgoing port. And you have all the virtual PLCs connected together and it’s all done. You know, there’s no incoming ports to open up on the firewall to worry about, you know, that security concern. You know, it’s basically like, you know, you’ve already set up a VPN server, if you will. It’s it’s not the same, but similar and, you know, taking care of that connection already. So there’s an immense value in that, I think. Shawn Tierney (Host): And I wanted to add to the zero trust. We’ve covered it on the show. And just for people, maybe you’ve missed it. You know, with zero trust is you’re not trusting anyone. You authorize connections. Okay? So by default, nobody’s laptop or cell phone or tablet can talk to anything. You authorize, hey. I want this SCADA system to talk to this PLC. I want this PLC to talk to this IO. I want this historian to talk to this PLC. Every connection has to be implicitly I’m sorry. Explicitly, enabled and trusted. And so by default, you know, an an integrator comes into the plant, he can’t do anything because in a zero trust system, somebody has to give him and his laptop access and access to specific things. Maybe he only gets access to the PLC, and that makes sense. Think about it. Who knows whether his laptop has been? I mean, we’ve heard about people plug in to the USB ports of the airport and getting viruses. So it’s important that person’s device or a SCADA system or a historian only has access to exactly what it needs access to. Just like you don’t let the secretary walk on the plant floor and start running the machine. Right? So it’s a it’s an important concept. We’ve covered it a lot. And and, Jake, I really appreciate you bringing that up because zero trust is so huge, and I think it’s huge for OT to have it built into their system. Henrik Pedersen (OTee): Yeah. Absolutely. Absolutely. Jacob Abel (Edgenaut): I wanted to highlight too the Henrik mentioned that the the backbone of the system is running on a technology called NATS. That’s spelled n a t s. And why that’s important is this is a a lightweight messaging, service, and it’s designed to send millions of messages per second. You know, that’s opposed to, you know, probably the best Modbus TCP device that you can find. You might get a couple 100 messages through per second. It’s millions of messages per second. It’s, you know, especially with, you know, we’re dealing with AI machine learning, you know, training models. I mean, we’re data hungry. Right? So this gives you the backbone too. You know, it’s like it can push an immense amount of tag data, you know, with ease. I think that’s another really important point. With that, though, I’ll I’ll get on to the demo. Henrik Pedersen (OTee): Oh, that’s great. We do we do see that, Jay, that most of our customers report on that, you know, 400 or 700 x better data resolution. And so it’s it’s a step change for for for the data resolution there. Yeah. Jacob Abel (Edgenaut): Excellent. So one of the things that I personally love about OT is how quickly you can get into the PLC once everything’s set up. So this is OT’s website, obviously, ot.io. So once you’re here, you just go to log in. And that brings in the login screen. Now I’m are I’m using my Google account for single sign on, so I can just click continue with Google. And this brings me into the main interface. And another thing that I love is that, you know, it is very simple and straightforward, you know, and simple is not a bad thing. Simple is a good thing. I mean, the way that things should be is that it should be, it should be easy and the finer details are taken care of for you. So right here, we have our main project list. I just have this one benchmarking program that I’ve imported in here. And you also have device lists, just a a test device that I’ve installed the runtime on. Just real quick. You know, you have a Martha, the AI assistant in the corner here. And, the documentation guides is up here. So you can get help or look into reference material very easily. It’s all right there for you. So I’m gonna open up this program here. So just a quick tour here. Right up here in the top left is basically where where most everything’s done. So if you click on this little down arrow, you can choose what virtual PLC runtime to attach it to. I’ve already attached it to the device. I installed the runtime on. You can add, you know, a new program, driver, function blocks, custom data types real quick here. Compile your program, download it to the device. Check the release history, which is really, really great. As you can, you can go into release history and you can revert to a prior version very easily. We got built in, version control, which is another, great feature. Henrik Pedersen (OTee): I can also just comment on that, Jake, that we do have we do have, in the quite short term roadmap to also expand on that with Git integration, that, a lot of our customers are are asking for. So yeah. Jacob Abel (Edgenaut): Awesome. Yeah. I mean, that’s that’s another, very hot topic right now. It’s, you know, getting getting the revision control systems, as part of, you know, at least the textual, programming languages. See, so, you know, we have a few, like, housekeeping things here. I mean, you can delete the program, export it. It’s a good good point here is that, OT complies with the PLC open, XML specification. So you can import or export programs, in this XML format, and it should work with solid majority of other automation software out there. You know, if you need to, you want to transition over to OT, you know, you can export it from your other software and import it rather easily. Got your program list here and, you know, just the basic configuration of, you know, you can add global variables that you wanna share between the different programs and POUs or, you know, change the, cycle rate of the periodic tasks, add more tasks. Let’s just get jump into this program here. Both the system uses the IEC sixty one one thirty one dash three standard structured text. So here’s just a little, quick benchmark program that I’ve been using to do some performance testing. Like you, you have the, the code right here, obviously. And on our, our right, the variable list, very easy to add a new variable and pick out the type. You can set a set of default value, add some notes to it. Super easy. So let’s go online. So if you have these little glasses up here in the top, right, you display live tag values. And so it’s grabbing from the runtime that’s running and plopping it right in here in the editor, which I I love the way it’s displayed. It makes it. And, you know, it’s one of the question marks is if you’re doing structured text instead of letter logic, like how it’s gonna show up and how readable is it gonna be. I think the, the text, like the color contrast here helps a lot. It’s very, very readable and intuitive. And we also have the tag browser on the right hand side. Everything is, organized into, you know, different groups. There’s the the resources and instances that you’ve set up in the configuration tab. So the by default, the tag the tags are all listed under there. And here too, you know, you can set tag values doing some performance testing, as I said. So this is, recording some some jitter and task time metrics. And that’s that’s really it. That’s the that’s the cloud IV in a nutshell. Super easy, very intuitive. I mean, it’s there there’s zero learning curve here. Shawn Tierney (Host): For the, audio audience, just a little comment here. First of all, structured text to me seems to be, like, the most compatible between all PLCs. So, you know, everybody does ladder a little bit differently. Everybody does function blocks a little bit differently. But structured text and, again, I could be wrong if you guys think out there in the in listening, think I’m wrong about that. But when I’ve seen structured text and compared it between multiple different vendors, it always seems to be the closest from vendor to vendor to vendor. So I can see this makes a great a great place to start for OT to have a virtual PLC that supports that because you’re gonna be able to import or export to your maybe your physical PLCs. The other thing is I wanted to comment on what we’re seeing here. So, many of you who are familiar with structured text, you know, you may have an if then else, or an if then. And and you may have, like, tag x, equals, you know, either some kind of calculation, you know, maybe, you know, z times y or just maybe a a constant. But what we’re seeing here is as we’re running, they have inserted at a in a different color the actual value of, let’s say, tag x. So in between you know, right next to tag x, we see the actual value changing and updating a few times a second. And so it makes it very easy to kinda monitor this thing while it’s running and see how everything’s working, and I know that’s that’s huge. And I know a lot of vendors also do this as well, but I love the integration here, how it’s so easy to see what the current values are for each of these variables. And, I’ll turn it over to you, Hendrick. I think I interrupted you. Go ahead. Henrik Pedersen (OTee): Yeah. No. I was just gonna comment on that. Jake said, like, this is the this is the POC editor, and the next the next big feature that we’re releasing very soon is essentially the service, manager, which is the, which is the feature that will allow our users to deploy any kind of service very efficiently, like another runtime or OPC UA server or an entity server or or or whatever other, software components that that, you want to deploy, like a Knox server or things like that. So and that’s that’s, we were really excited about that because, that will kind of allow for a step change in how you kind of orchestrate and manage your system and your, your system and your, your, you have a very good overview of what’s going on with versions of, of the different software components running in your, your infrastructure and your devices and things like that. So we’re really excited about that, that it’s coming out. And it might be that actually when when this, episode airs, who knows if it’s if it’s done or or not, but we’re very close to release the first version of that. So excited about that. Shawn Tierney (Host): Now I have a question for you guys, and maybe this is off topic a little bit. So let’s say I’m up here in the cloud. I’m working on a program, and I have some IO on my desk I wanna connect it to. Is that something I can do? Is there a connector I can download and install my PC to allow the cloud to talk to my IO? Or is that something where I have to get a a, you know, a local, you know, like we talked about those industrial Linux boxes and and test it here with that? Henrik Pedersen (OTee): Yeah. So I think you what you what you’re you’re after is, like, the IO configuration of, if you wanna deploy a driver, right, or, like, a modbus driver and how you figure out the system. Right? Shawn Tierney (Host): Yeah. Because this is in the cloud. It’s not on my desk. The IO is on my desk. So how would I connect the two of them? How would I is is that something that can be done? Henrik Pedersen (OTee): Yep. Yeah. Exactly. That’s that’s actually the you know, I I think, Jake, you might just wanna show why you deploy a driver. Right? Jacob Abel (Edgenaut): Sure. Sure. And I just wanna take a second to, clarify. You know, it’s something that kinda comes up often, and I I don’t I don’t think it gets it’s it’s cleared up enough is that so, you know, we have this cloud ID here. So, you know, you can open this from anywhere in the world. But the virtual PLC run times get installed on computers preferably very locally, you know, on the machine, on the factory floor, something like that. I I’ve got, an edge computer right here. Just as an example. I mean, this is something you would just pop in the control panel and you can install OT on this. So to answer your question better, Shawn, you know, to get to, you know, the remote IO that you need essentially, or actually in the, in the case of this, this has onboard IO. You know, you’re looking at connecting with MOBAs, PCP, Ethernet IP. I I know that a lot more protocols are coming. Profinet. So how you would do that is that you have that plus sign up here and add a driver config. We’re just gonna do, Modbus real quick. Henrik Pedersen (OTee): Mhmm. Jacob Abel (Edgenaut): And we wanna add a TCP client. So you can name the client, tell it how fast to pull, you know, any delays, put in the IP address. Just an example. Do the port number if you need and then add your requests. You know, you have support for, all the main function codes and mod bus right here, you know, read holding, read input, you know, write multiple coils, all that good stuff, you know, tell address how many registers you wanna do, timeouts, slave ID. And then, you know, once you’ve done that, so let’s say, you know, I’m gonna read, and holding registers here, the table on the right auto updates. You can do aliases for each one of these. You can just do register one Mhmm. As an example Shawn Tierney (Host): It’s showing just for the audio audience, it’s showing the absolute address for all these modbus, variables and then, has the symbols, and he’s putting in his own symbol name. It has a default symbol name of symbol dash something, and he’s putting his own in, like, register one, which makes it easier. Yeah. Jacob Abel (Edgenaut): Good point. Yeah. Good point. Thanks, Shawn. So, yeah, once once you put in your request and you can throw in some aliases, for the different registers, you know, you can go back to your program and here’s this, sample variable that I just added from earlier. You know, you can the registers are 16 bits. I’m gonna select, an int. And what you can do here now is select those modbus requests that you just set up. So it automatically maps these to those variables for you. So that that way you don’t have to do anything anything manual, like have a separate program to say, you know, this tag equals, you know, register 40,001. You know, it’s already mapped for you. So that’s that’s essentially how you would connect to remote IO is, just add a client in the driver configs and, fill in all your info and be off and running. Shawn Tierney (Host): That’s excellent. I really liked how you were able to easily map the register to the modbus value you’re reading in or writing to to your, variable so you can use that in your program. That was very easy to do. Jacob Abel (Edgenaut): Oh, yeah. Yeah. It’s that it’s like I said, that’s one of the things that I love about this interface is that everything is just very straightforward. You know, it’s it’s super easy to just stumble upon whatever it is you need and figure it out. Henrik Pedersen (OTee): And just just, to add to to kinda your your processors, like, once you have created that connection between the IO and and and the program, you basically just, compile it and download it to the to the runtime again, and and it executes locally the based on the yeah. Nice. Jacob Abel (Edgenaut): Oh, right. Good point. Yeah. Of of course, after we add something, we do have to redownload. So Shawn Tierney (Host): Very interesting. Well, that answers my question. Jacob Abel (Edgenaut): I think that’s that’s about it for the the demo. I mean, unless, Shawn, you have any more questions about the interface here. Shawn Tierney (Host): No. It looked pretty straightforward to me, Hendrik. I don’t know. Did you have anything else you wanted to discuss while we have the demo up? Henrik Pedersen (OTee): Nope. Not nothing related to this except for that, you know, this is probably something that’s quite new in the OT space is that this is a software service, meaning that there are continuous development going on and releases, and improvements to the software all the time. Like literally every week we deploy new improvements. And, and what, I typically say is that like, the, you know, if you if you if you sign up with OT, what you what you will experience is that the actual software keeps on becoming better over time and not is not going to become outdated. It’s going to be just better over time. And I think that’s part of what I really loved about the innovation space, innovation happening around IT is that that, that has become the new de facto standard in how you develop software and great software. And I think we in, in, in the OT space, we need to adopt that same methodology of developing software, something that continuously becomes better over time. Shawn Tierney (Host): Yeah. And I would just say, you know, if you’re if you’re on the OT side of things, you wanna be in six eleven thirty one dash three languages, because these are things that your staff, you know, what you know, your electricians and technicians and even engineers, you know, should know, should be getting up to speed. I don’t know. We’re at the automation school. We’re teaching, structured text. And so, easier. I look at this, and I’m like, this is a lot easier than trying to learn c plus or or JavaScript. So in any case, I think, you know, if it’s an OT side real IO control, real control system or data collection, you know, you know, very important, you know, mission critical data collection, then, you know, I’d rather have this than somebody trying to write some custom code for me and, you know, use some kind of computer language who doesn’t understand, you know, the OT side of things. So, I could definitely see the advantage of your system, Henrik. Henrik Pedersen (OTee): Yep. I I I also wanted to say to that, Stike, the I I do not believe the EIC standards in general will disappear. They exist for a very good reason. Right. Exists to standardise to to ensure safety and determinists, determinism in this. So I don’t think they will disappear. But there are obviously advances now with AI and things like that that can can help us create these things much faster and much more efficient and things like that. So, so but, but the EIC standards, I think, will be there for a very long time. Obviously, the 06/4099 standard is is really exciting, and and we believe that that can be, yeah, that that can clearly be there, but it’s still a new EIC standard. So, Shawn Tierney (Host): it’s not think what we’re gonna see is we’re gonna see a lot more libraries fleshed out. There’ll be a lot less writing from scratch. We’ve interviewed on the History of Automation podcast. We’ve interviewed some big integrators, and they’re at a point now, you know, twenty, thirty years on that they have libraries for everything. And I think that’s where we’ll see, you know, much like the DCS, I think, vendors went two years ago. But I still think that the there’s a reason for these languages. There’s a reason to be able to edit things while they run. There’s a reason for different languages for different applications and different, people maintaining them. So I agree with you on that. I don’t I don’t think we’re we’re gonna see the end of these, these standard languages that have done us very well since the, you know, nineteen seventies. Jacob Abel (Edgenaut): I just wanna add a bit on there about, Shawn, you mentioned, you know, doing less code. I I did show earlier in the bottom right hand corner here, we have our our little AI assistant, Martha. I don’t believe the feature, it has been released yet. You know, Henrik, correct me if I’m wrong, but I know one of the things that’s coming is, AI code generation, you know, similar to that of cloud or chat GPT. So it’s going to, you know, you can open this guy up here. You know, right right now, I think it’s just for, help topics, but you’ll be able to talk to Martha and she’s gonna generate code for you in your program there all built in. Henrik Pedersen (OTee): Yeah. Yeah. That’s that’s coming really fast now. So, it’s it’s not been implemented yet, but it’s, it’s right around the corner. Shawn Tierney (Host): Yeah. And it’s it’s not gonna be able to it’s you’re not gonna be able to hook a camera up to it and, like, take pictures of your machine and say, okay. Write the control code for this. But, you know, if you had a, you know, process that had 12 steps in it, the AI could definitely help you generate that code and and other code. And we’ll have to have Henrik and Jake back on to talk about that when it comes out, but, you know, it’s gonna be able to save you, reduce the tedious part of the the coding. You know, if you need an array of so many tags and so many dimensions or, you know, the stuff that, you know, it would just be the typing intensive, it’s gonna be able to help you with that, and then you can actually put the context in there. Just like, you can pull up a template in Word for a letter, and then you can fill in the blanks. You know? And and, of course, AI is helping make that easier too. But, in any case, Henrik, maybe you can come back on when that feature launches. Henrik Pedersen (OTee): Yeah. Absolutely. And I’m also excited about just a simple a use case of of translating something. Right? Translating your existing let’s say if it’s a proprietary code or something like that, like, getting it getting it standardized and translating it to the ESE six eleven thirty one standard, for instance, or, so so the obviously AI is, like, perfect for this space. It’s there is no doubt, And and it’s, like, that’s also why I’m so excited about, like, what’s going on at the moment. It’s like there’s so much innovation potential, in the on the OT side now that, they are with all these new technologies. Shawn Tierney (Host): Yeah. Absolutely. Absolutely. Well, gentlemen, was there anything else you wanted to cover? Henrik Pedersen (OTee): I think just just one final thing from from me is, like, we thought a lot about it, like, before this this episode, and we thought, like, let’s offer let’s offer the listeners something something of of true value. So so we thought, the, you know, after this after this episode launched, we want to want to offer anyone out there that’s listening a free, completely hands on trial of our technology, in their in their in their environment or on their Raspberry Pi or whatever. So just just reach out to us if you wanna do that. And, and I yeah. We’ll get you set up for for for testing this, and it’s not gonna cost you anything. Shawn Tierney (Host): Well, that’s great. And, guys, if you’re listening, if you do take advantage of that free trial, please let me know what you thought about it. But, Henrik, thank you so much for, that offer to our listening audience. Guys, don’t be bashful. Reach out to him. Reach out to Jake. Jake, thank you for doing the demo as well. Really appreciate it. My pleasure. Any final words, Henrik, before we close out? Henrik Pedersen (OTee): No. It’s been great. Great, being here, Shawn, and thanks for for helping us. Shawn Tierney (Host): Well, I hope you enjoyed that episode. I wanna thank Hendrik and Jacob for coming on the show, telling us all about OT virtual PLCs, and then giving us a demo. I thought it was really cool. Now if any of you guys take them up on their free trial, please let me know what you think. I’d love to hear from you. And, with that, I do wanna thank OT for sponsoring this episode so we could release it completely ad free. And I also wanna thank you for tuning back in this week. We have another podcast coming out next week. It’ll be early because I will be traveling and doing an event with a vendor. And so expect that instead of coming out on Wednesday to come out on Monday if all goes as planned. And then we will be skipping the Thanksgiving, week, and then we’ll be back in the in the, in December, and then we have shows lined up for the new year already as well. So thank you for being a listener, a viewer, and, please, wherever you’re consuming the show, whether it’s on YouTube or on the automation blog or at iTunes or Spotify or Google Podcasts or anywhere, please give us a thumbs up and a like or a five star review because that really helps us expand our audience and find new vendors to come on the show. And with that, I’m gonna end by wishing you good health and happiness. And until next time, my friends, peace. Until next time, Peace ✌️ If you enjoyed this content, please give it a Like, and consider Sharing a link to it as that is the best way for us to grow our audience, which in turn allows us to produce more content
In this episode of Workforce 4.0, Ann Wyatt interviews Hendrik Stoltz, CEO of Automated Industrial Robotics (or AIR). They discuss Hendrik's journey from South Africa to the USA, his experiences in the robotics industry, and the importance of cultural transformation within organizations.
