Sensors are used for measurements and for acquisition of data; but they require an effective data transfer mechanism to enable full-fledged applications that utilize ...

In many Internet of Things (IoT) applications, minimizing power consumption is a key design requirement. IoT capability involves adding sensors and connectivity to a valve or similar device in a ...

While smartphones are awesome little computers, one of the things that really makes them useful is their built-in sensors - many apps are made possible via a phone's accelerometer, gyroscope, GPS, ...

Smart sensor nodes are the “canaries in a coal mine” for the industrial IoT, sensitively monitoring industrial equipment for vibrations, electrical current and voltage changes, temperature, sound, and ...

Lithium thionyl chloride (Li-SOCl 2) batteries are the current gold standard for long-term remote deployments. Li-SOCl 2 ...

We’re awash in a world of sensor components that can measure and, with actuators, act upon any sensing function imaginable. These include acceleration, gyroscopics, magnetic headings, sound, video, ...

The term Internet of Things (IoT), which used to be used broadly to describe almost all connected devices, can now be seen to fall into two segments: Critical IoT and Massive IoT. Critical IoT refers ...
