Solution Kit for Developing Smart Cities
Complex projects such as smart cities need tools to simplify and expedite implementation. IoTSens has a Smart Cities Solution Kit specifically for this purpose. The kit contains humidity and temperature sensors, ambient pressure probe and pollution detectors (CO2, NO2, CO, O3) that allow users to address weather control and air quality applications. Based on Libelium’s […]
Wirelessly Connect Sensor Nodes & Consume Less Power
The Libelium’s Waspmote Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) module connects Waspmote sensor nodes to smartphones, tablets, and all other BLE-compatible iOS and Android devices. The BLE or Bluetooth 4.0 wireless protocol offers low-energy power management for short-range wireless connectivity that is location-aware and context-aware. For security, the module allows sensor devices to function as real time […]
Wireless Sensor Platform Enables Smart Water
If you can continuously monitor and communicate data from rivers, swimming pools and spas, sea water or remote ponds, you have smart water. For these types of water quality applications, Libelium launched a Smart Water wireless sensor platform. Using its Waspmote wireless technology, sensor data from probes can be transmitted to the Cloud via 3G, […]
Wireless Sensing Applied to Rollercoaster Testing
Measuring the inertial force on a person when riding a roller coaster is an interesting challenge, especially when the coaster has a downhill drop of more than 45m and eight inversions. That is exactly what the Dragon Khan of PortAventura in Europe offers riders. To measure the inertial force on this and the Shambhala, a […]
