Wireless Sensors Systems

deetergroup

Hello Everyone,

 

Its nice to be here.

 

Right, I have a question, and I would love to know your thoughts on it.

 

Wireless sensors systems, do you believe that companies are avoiding them because wireless has the label of being "unreliable" with all the general problems that people seem to have with laptops and mobile phone not always have a perfect signal?

 

Or do you think the problem is more security related, the fact that they would worry they are sending important information via the airwaves?

 

Lets face if, if you have a factory complex that covers a few square miles are you really going to want to play with structured cabling and, if you have industrial equipment, the worry of someone cutting a line between buildings? Lets face it, this sort of thing has happened and will continue to happen, and we would all dearly love to go wireless completely, think about it, just pick up your device and bingo you have what you want, or you can do what you want, all because it is there.

 

So, tell me, what do you think?

  • William,

     

    At the ESC Chicago event, I noticed several companies employing wireless sensor. On top of that, they were also offering cloud based data collection. The people who use the sensors never even handle the data directly.

     

    Exepts from my twitter feed:

    17 wireless sensors from monnit.com. Data sent via internet or direct to pc. Cellular gateway coming in 1 month. http://yfrog.com/hsbpsmhbj

     

    Cloud based sensor data collection coming from monnit.com called imonnit in a few months. http://yfrog.com/gzjxfrjj

     

    Digi int cloud sensors only need an internet connection via land line or cell tower. Big wind farms, and mobile assets.

     

    Before iDigi cloud based wireless sensor networking from Digi int.  http://bit.ly/mhVktj http://lockerz.com/s/108612071

     

    Beta wireless vibration sensor from PCB Piezotronics. Cheapest I'm the industry. Not mesh, simple setup.  http://lockerz.com/s/108609906

     

    I like the trend, and hope to see more wireless sensor technology. It is only fitting to cut the cord, it's 2011.
