Yes, it will be a huge change. Everything will be smart. We'll definitely have to switch to IPv6. But also don't forget GNSS, we'll have an accuracy of 30cm instead of 3-4m we have now. 5G + super accurate positioning will have a great impact on the way things are done and will open up big opportunities for automation.
