1. Sensors & Actuators The fundamental components of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, sometimes referred to as "Things" are sensors and actuators. Sensors collect data from their surroundings, whether in real-time, automatically, or in response to a user's command. Actuators, on the other ha...

Networked data communicationenables all SCADA functions. Data collected from sensors must be transmitted to SCADA field controllers, which, in turn, communicate with the SCADA supervisory computers; remote control commands are transmitted back to actuators from the SCADA supervisory computers. Data presenta...
Many devices work by combining sensors and actuators to convert energy from one form to another and then back again. Audio cassettes, for example, are created by using a transducer to turn the electrical signal from the microphone pick-up — which converted the sound waves into an electrical ...
Sensors and actuators:Sensors are devices that can detect changes in the environment, such as temperature, humidity, light, motion, or pressure. Actuators are devices that can cause physical changes in the environment, such as opening or closing a valve or turning on a motor. These devices are...
This is the lowest level in the SCADA architecture and includes the physical devices that gather data from the industrial processes. These devices are: sensors, actuators, valves, switches and other components that can measure and control variables like temperature, pressure, flow and levels. The ...

1. Sensors & actuators These are the “things” in Internet of Things. Sensors and actuators are responsible for collecting information from their respective environments and turning it into useful data. Some of these things include accelerometers, thermometers, air-quality sensors, and heart rate mo...
What are Engine Sensors? A modern car’s Engine Management System consists of various electronic and electrical components. Moreover, these comprise engine sensors, relays, and actuators. They provide the car’s Engine Control Unit with vital data parameters essential to govern various engine function...
