Detecting motion in a restricted area of a hospital. Knowing when a treatment room door is propped open. Recognizing unsafe air quality levels within a facility. Understanding each one of these ...

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 ...

Standard industrial sensors detect specific physical properties like temperature, pressure, and presence/absence. They also respond to changes in such properties. As such, one may think the only ...

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a core technology of the 21st century. Embedded systems connect everyday objects like kitchen appliances, cars, smart thermostats, and baby monitors to the internet.

Startup PurpleAir makes a living counting dust. Its consumer-level sensors measure particles of dust in air—airborne particulate matter (PM)—using laser particle counters that can count particle sizes ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Sensors are attached to the endpoint of every Internet of Things offering, making them a critical part of the fast-moving market. According to research firm Markets and Markets, the IoT sensor market ...
