You just described word-for-word "Industrie 4.0" - Germany's attempt at this back in 2014 [0]
It did not take off.
And this is the issue - these are all buzzwords, but there are more systemic issues in Germany caused by it's conglomeratization. It's always the same handful of conglomerates (Siemens, VW, Bosch, etc) lobbying for industrial policy.
