Balancing innovation and safety in control engineering projects: Are you ready to navigate the fine line?

In control engineering projects, finding the sweet spot between innovation and safety is key. Here are some strategies to maintain that balance:

- Conduct thorough risk assessments to understand potential safety issues before they arise.

- Encourage cross-disciplinary collaboration to generate innovative solutions with built-in safety measures.

- Implement incremental testing phases to evaluate new ideas without compromising the entire system's integrity.

How do you strike the right balance in your projects? Consider sharing your experiences.
