The internet of things and sensors and actuators by vint cerf at lisa 12 the 26th large installation system administration conference arm.
Internet of things sensors actuators.
In an internet of things iot ecosystem two things are very important.
Here s how sensors and actuators can be used to ensure that accuracy.
This layer is an essential part of the iot system and has network connectivity to the.
1 the bottom layer of the iot system consists of sensor connectivity and network to collect information.
Sensors and actuators with data being a key focus of iot it s even more important to ensure the data is accurate.
The internet of things is rarely discussed without the conversation steering to data and the new data economy.
A transducer is any physical device.
Having the sensors of the system tripped can mean that the internet of things is triggered to send information from the security system to a mobile device of some kind.
To warn the appropriate people.
The first is the iot device level.
The internet and physical devices like sensors and actuators.
The intelligence and value from an iot system is based on what can be learned from the data.
The second is the iot gateway which we covered more in depth but deserves a spot as a layer and certainly in an overview of the iot device layer with which it is strongly connected.
As shown in fig.
A better term for a sensor is a transducer.
As without accurate sensors actuators and iot devices in general no accurate data and without accurate data no internet of things let alone iot projects or products services.
