WS01 Low Cost Wireless Sensor

Summary

   Esensors, Inc., in cooperation with the University at Buffalo, has developed a series of wireless sensor prototypes to complement its series of networked sensors. They are aimed at a variety of low-cost (including disposable) sensor applications. Over the next few quarters we expect to introduce additional sensors and system components, including environmental monitors, which will be manufactured on an OEM basis. We also intend to license the technology for specific applications.

 

Sensor types

  • Temperature
  • Light (photo or illumination)
  • Vibration (accelerometer)
  • Motion (PIR)
  • Magnetic change (vehicle detection)
  • Soil moisture
  • Water/rain
  • Humidity
  • Switches (push-button, Hall, reed)
  • Electric field

 

Wireless Options

  • Basic transmit-only (433 MHz, Dot4 and Dot5)
  • Transceiver, point-to-point (433 MHz with Websensor or Dot2/Dot0 protocol)
  • Zigbee (2.4 GHz full featured mesh network with IEEE 1451.5 proto

 

Features

  • Sensor-centric system design.
  • Emphasis on the IEEE 1451 open standard for smart transducer protocol
  • Auto configuration and simple setup for users WS01A - with temperature sensor
  • Low overall cost and long battery life
  • Wide variety of sensors
