Cover Story: Industry 5.0 (I5.0) represents a shift towards a human-centered industry and emphasizes the integration of human and machine capabilities. A highly compatible concept for enabling the I5.0 implementation is Intelligent Space (IS). These spaces can sense, interpret, and recognize behaviors, adapt to preferences, and provide natural interactions between humans and intelligent systems to create dynamic and adaptive environments in real time. The integration of ISs and I5.0 has paved the way for the development of cognitive factories, which transform industrial environments into ISs. In this context, this article explores the convergence of IS and I5.0 concepts and aims to provide insights into the technical implementation challenges of cognitive factories, while contributing to the knowledge base surrounding the manufacturing paradigm of I5.0.
