Nexxiot announced April 4 that it has released a new multipurpose Vector sensor to monitor handbrakes, hatches and doors on freight railcars, “complementing a growing portfolio of Nexxiot Asset ...

Navigate the rapidly evolving landscape of the Internet of Things (IoT) with our expansive Collection from Scientific Reports. As connectivity becomes increasingly ubiquitous, IoT sensors and systems ...

Back in 1980, it is believed that the first intelligent electronic sensor was proposed (by S. Middelhoek and J.B. Angell). Their idea was to combine a MEMS sensor, an analog-to-digital convertor, and ...

Connected devices already outnumber the world's population by 1.5 to 1. By 2020, the Internet of Things (IoT) is expected to connect 50 billion smart objects to the network. The IoT consists of things ...

Smart technology does what we tell it to do, in theory. That might seem obvious in a world where Alexa can dim our lights on command, manipulate our thermostats or connect us with the delivery person ...

While connectivity is a key, if not the key, ingredient in Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) applications, sensors run a close second. After all, most industrial IoT projects are centered on ...

Researchers designed an IoT network using sound and motion sensors that estimates public space utilization. The ideas can be applied to other IoT sensor networks. Sensor Fusion for Public Space ...

Sponsored by IDT: Energy-constrained IEEE 802.15.4 sensors and devices will form a major portion of the IoT and must meet IPv6 protocols. 6LoWPAN will make that happen. Linking all kinds of different ...

Key components of modern industrial systems are the sensors that feed data to the controllers, monitors, and other operational technologies running the plant. Networking of sensors has been in use for ...
