Sensors & Actuators
Sensors and actuators are the physical components that interact with the environment. Sensors gather data such as temperature, humidity, motion and light, while actuators perform actions based on received instructions.
The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to the network of physical devices, vehicles, appliances, and other items embedded with sensors, software, and connectivity, enabling them to connect and exchange data over the internet.
Explore IoT →IoT systems connect physical devices and enable them to collect, exchange, process and act on data. These interconnected technologies support remote monitoring, control, optimization and automation.
From sensors and connectivity to cloud services, security and analytics, every component contributes to creating an interconnected IoT ecosystem.
Sensors and actuators are the physical components that interact with the environment. Sensors gather data such as temperature, humidity, motion and light, while actuators perform actions based on received instructions.
Connectivity enables devices to communicate with each other and with central systems through technologies such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, RFID, NFC and cellular networks including 3G, 4G and 5G.
Collected data can be processed locally or in the cloud to extract meaningful insights. Processing may include data filtering, aggregation, analysis and machine learning algorithms.
Networking infrastructure facilitates communication between devices, gateways and central systems. It includes protocols, routers, gateways and other networking devices.
Cloud platforms are commonly used for storing, processing and analyzing large volumes of IoT data. They provide scalability, reliability and accessibility from anywhere with an internet connection.
Edge computing processes data locally, closer to its source. This can reduce latency, conserve bandwidth and enhance security in IoT environments.
User interfaces allow people to interact with IoT systems, view data and control connected devices. These interfaces can include mobile applications, web dashboards and other graphical interfaces.
Security measures protect IoT systems from unauthorized access, data breaches and cyberattacks. These include encryption, authentication, access control and regular software updates.
Advanced analytics tools derive insights from IoT data, supporting predictive maintenance, operational optimization and better decision-making.
IoT solutions often integrate with existing business systems and applications through APIs, middleware and custom application development to deliver business value.
