 Quality OverviewTimothy Adesanya Ibidapo () Chapter 2 in From Industry 4.0 to Quality 4.0, 2022, pp 29-56 from Springer Abstract: Abstract Nature itself appreciates the general need for the “homo sapiens” to appreciate the quality of his/her immediate environment in order to be able to define its survival criteria. This is generally reflected and demonstrated in the abilities of the Homo sapiens to see (eye), smell (nose), feel (nerves), hear (ears), and think (brain). These senses which are present in virtually all animals serve as natural tools for assessing the quality of the environment in which they live in and carry out their day-to-day activities and their subsequent reaction with the sole objective of determining the quality, that is, risk or suitability of a particular environment for their continued stay, existence, and survival.
