Sense & Communication
The Era of Internet of Things
1. The marginal cost of sensors
2. The ability for pervasive networks
3. The capabilities on Wi-Fi and low speed, wireless networks
Personal Health
Smart City

SensorsReceive information from the
environment. For example,
light, heat, motion or pressure.
Photoresistor (光敏電阻)Resistive Sensors
A photoresistor (or light-dependent resistor, LDR, or photocell) is a light-controlled variable resistor. The resistance of a photoresistor decreases with increasing brightness.
PIR Motion Sensor (被動式紅外線感測器) Voltage-Controlling Sensors
PIRs (Passive Infrared) are basically made of a pyroelectric sensor (焦電型感測器), which can detect levels of infrared radiation.
Sensor type Examples
Acoustic, sound, vibration Microphone
Automotive, transportation Parking sensor, speedometer
Chemical Breathalyser, smoke detector
Electric current, electric potential, magnetic,
radio
Metal detector
Flow, fluid velocity Water meter
Optical, light, imaging, photon Light sensor
Navigation instruments Depth gauge, gyroscope
Position, angle, displacement, distance, speed,
acceleration
Impact sensor
Actuators 制動器Cause events to occur in the
environment. For example,
LED lights, LCD display or
servo motor.
LED lights (發光二極體)
Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are solid-state devices that convert electric energy directly into light of a single color. Because they employ “cold” light generation technology, LEDs don't waste energy in the form of non-light producing heat.
LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) Module
The most commonly used Character based LCDs are based on Hitachi's HD44780 controller. The LCDs have a parallel interface, meaning that the microcontroller has to manipulate several interface pins at once to control the display.
ConnectivityIOT device to communicate
with other devices
Wireless Connectivity Ecosystem

SummaryThere is a data up-stream from the sensors
in the field, via the wireless connectivity,
into the IoT platforms. Then, there are data
mash-up opportunities within the platforms
allowing us to leverage Big Data
opportunities. Finally, there is a data
down-stream from the platforms back to the
actuators in the field or some beautiful
frontends on your computer screen or smart
phone.
