Building and testing cloud-connected wireless sensors

摘要

Wireless technology is a key driver of the Internet of Things. The global IoT market-research firm ON World predicts that the industrial wireless sensing IoT market alone will reach $35 billion by 2021. "Today's WSN and associated cloud technologies provide the key elements for the industrial IoT: multiyear battery-powered wireless nodes, IP addressability, fieldbus tunneling, and cloud-based provisioning and management systems," said Mareca Hatler, ON World's research director and a contributor to a new report on the topic.
