[Strange.rand] has dropped into the low-power rabbit hole, and is designing a low-cost wireless sensor node that runs on solar power and a supercapacitor. The main components of the sensor node is ...

The company also tells me that they have something like 125 sensor modules under consideration! Variable Technologies' Node was a successful Kickstarter project raising $76,340 on its initial goal ...

The wireless networks these nodes build up will be characterized by inexpensive, ultra low-power radios, with modest bandwidth requirements—able to transmit small amounts of sensor data perhaps ...

Node can be set to alert users when it starts or stops moving. Put it on top of your dryer and it can send you a message when the cycle is done. Chroma: The $75 Chroma sensor screws onto the Node ...

New developments in ultra-low power management, such as higher efficiencies and greater integration, are enabling more powerful and smaller sensor nodes for the IoT. The Internet of Things (IoT ...

Importantly, NODE also has module ports at either end, to accommodate a host of other interchangeable sensors that Yu has in the works. These include the Oxa module, that serves as a sensor for ...

An idea from EADS and Vienna University of Technology is taking off: in a joint project, Energy Harvester Modules suitable for aircrafts have been tested, which should supply sensor nodes with ...

The problem that faces the engineering team trying to optimise the energy consumption of an IIoT sensor node is that many of the design decisions interact with each other. And there are often hidden ...

The folks behind Node have released the iPhone peripheral's fifth end cap, the NODE+chroma, a sensor that scans colors, transmitting that data to your handset via Bluetooth 4.0.
