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 ...

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 ...

Walmart has announced that it's partnering with IoT startup Wiliot to implement Wiliot-powered ambient IoT to track its stock ...

Everactive combines very low power requirements with electricity generated from ambient energy to make IoT sensors that need no batteries. A startup founded by two MIT grads says that it can deploy ...

Walmart is deploying millions of ambient Internet of Things battery-free sensors throughout its U.S. supply chain to enhance ...

What is the Internet of Things? The Internet of Things, or IoT, refers to the billions of physical devices around the world that are now connected to the internet, all collecting and sharing data.

Those responsible for refilling the machine could if they wished, leverage this information to serve a “just in time” supply management process. The business owners could also collect aggregated usage ...

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 ...

In an economy driven by real-time data, the ability to make decisions at the edge, right where data is generated, has become ...

Sensor power loss is the scourge of IoT. Deploying millions of sensors is pretty much a useless endeavor if the devices continually run out of power. IoT sensors can’t collect or transmit data without ...

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 ...
