Here are some IoT trends for year 2019 to watch:
More device: There are four times as many devices connected to the Internet as there are people in the world, and the number of devices is increasing rapidly. There are computers, smart phones and many different kind of connected devices. Gartner forecasts that 14.2 billion connected things will be in use in 2019, and that the total will reach 25 billion by 2021,
Voice: The integration of voice into IoT devices creates an user experience that many consumers seem to enjoy. The next few years will see voice automation take over many aspects of our lives. The current major players in the IoT voice world are Amazon’s Alexa, Apple’s Siri, and Google Assistant. Microsoft’s Cortana seems to have already lost in the game as Satya Nadella says Cortana won’t challenge Alexa and Google Assistant directly; Microsoft will focus on making it a skill on other voice platforms instead. Voice won’t change everything but it will be one part of a movement that heralds a new way to think about our relationship with devices and data. Consider voice as a type of user interface to be added to the existing list of UI technologies. Voice will not kill brands, it won’t hurt keyboard sales or touchscreen devices — it will become an additional way to do stuff; it is incremental. We need to learn to design around it.Deloitte expects the sales of 164 million smart speakers at an average price of $43 in 2019. The smart speaker market will be worth more than $7 billion next year, increasing 63% from 2018’s $4.3 billion.
Automobiles: Automobiles are leading the way in IoT adoption. Gartner predicts that one in five cars will be connected by 2020. Both Google and Apple have tools that allow drivers to control calls, listen to messages and control apps using voice.
IoT clouds: Developing for the Internet of Things is a complex endeavor, and nobody wants to do it from scratch. IoT data platforms offer a jumping-off point by combining many of the tools needed to manage a deployment from device management to data prediction and insights into one service. There are many IoT cloud platforms to choose from. All cloud platforms have their own distinctive areas of pros and cons. Ultimately the project needs and cost-effectiveness determine whom to choose. Utilizing cloud services also brings new potential risks that are good to understand already at the beginning of the project. I wrote on article to Uusiteknologia.fi magazine issue 2/2018 on IoT cloud platforms.
Digital Twins: Digital twin tech, or a virtual representation of a product, is a critical concept in IoT that’s still being sorted out. Digital twin refers to a digital replica of physical assets (physical twin), processes, people, places, systems and devices that can be used for various purposes. Definitions of digital twin technology emphasize two important characteristics: connection from the physical model to the corresponding virtual model and this connection is established by generating real time data using sensors. Physical objects and twin models interact. Digital twins applications typically integrate internet of things, artificial intelligence, machine learning and software analytics with spatial network graphs to create living digital simulation models that update and change as their physical counterparts change. In various industrial sectors, twins are being used to optimize the operation and maintenance of physical assets, systems and manufacturing processes.
Edge computing: The shift from centralized and cloud to edge architectures is well under way in the IoT space. In the future, computing the edge of the network will become an increasingly important way of processing data from networked devices and sensor networks. Compared to traditional centralized cloud computing, the new edge computing brings computing servers closer to the edge of the communications network. Compared to cloud centered IoT solutions, edge computing allow for lower delays and more reliable operation with respect to cloud services. At the same time, it promises improved security as not all potentially sensitive information needs to be transferred from the site to cloud. However, this is not the end point because the neat set of layers associated with edge architecture will evolve to a more unstructured architecture comprising of a wide range of “things” and services connected in a dynamic mesh. In thins kind of system data processing can be done on almost all network devices from IoT modules to gateways and in the future to 5G base stations. Relevant standardizing organizations on this field are Edge Computing Consortium Europe, OpenFog Consortium and Industrial Internet Consortium.
5G: 5G networks start to arrive. The standards for 5G will be defined in large part by the direct integration of Internet of Things (IoT) and Industrial IoT (IIoT) devices into global networks and devices. 5G networks are expected to be 10 to 100 times faster than current LTE technology. If you are in need for very high speed, your application resides inside the small 5G test networks coverage areas and your IoT device is allowed to consume considerable amount of power (more than 4G solutions), then you might be able to consider 5G. For all other cases I don’t see 5G would offer much for IoT applications in 2019. There is not yet ready 5G standards specifically designed for IoT applications. So for 2019 IoT and IIoT will need to be pretty much stick to 4G technologies like NB-IoT and LTE-M. For 5G to shape industrial computing application in larger scale than just some small tests we will have to wait till 2020. Addressing the issues behind Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) devices and 5G is important in next few years. Qualcomm, the largest supplier of modem chips used in smartphones, has introduced the X50 modem to give IIoT devices the ability to communicate over 5G networks. Beware of “fake 5G” marketing in 2019. The promise is that 5G will enable the future enterprise technologies everyone is predicting and waiting for: fleets of self-driving delivery trucks, virtual (VR) and augmented reality (AR), and a world of enterprise Internet of Things (IoT) deployments — systems that will define an era that the World Economic Forum termed the “Fourth Industrial Revolution.” Those promises will take years to realize, you will not see most of them in real use in 2019.
AI: Number one in Gartner’s predictions, no surprise, is artificial intelligence. Artificial intelligence and machine learning will be talked a lot with bold claims that AI goes from expert-only to everywhere. I would not expect it to be everywhere in 2019. Gartner, said in a statement, “AI will be applied to a wide range of IoT information, including video, still images, speech, network traffic activity, and sensor data.” At the moment many neural network systems are power hungry when implemented with traditional computer hardware. “For example, the performance of deep neural networks (DNNs) is often limited by memory bandwidth, rather than processing power.” By 2023, it’s expected that new special-purpose chips will reduce the power consumption required to run a DNN, enabling new edge architectures and embedded DNN functions in low-power IoT endpoints.
IIoT: The concept of a Smart Factory is composed of many different physical and informational subsystems, such as actuators and sensors, control systems, product management systems and manufacturing systems that all work together. This is a very complex system. It is critical to understand differing operational technology (OT) and information technology (IT) priorities to achieve collaboration and integration. Without this, Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and control projects will fail. Also finding the right Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) vendor partner is crucial to success. OPC Foundation has on initiative to extend OPC UA out to field devices to provide vendor-neutral, end-to-end interoperability beyond the plant. Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) network works well for OPC UA applications.
Value chain: IoT as an umbrella term will diminish. There are strong views that “Internet of things is not valuable in and of itself” so the conversation is going to shift away from an ambiguous buzzword to the actual use of technology. For product designers this means that when we design our connected world, we need to pull ourselves away from the cool technology that we are building and look at the system through our customers’ eyes. The sales pitch will be more like “It’s about the use cases, it’s about the solutions, it’s about the applications, managing and monitoring assets, performance management solutions, different kinds of solutions coming together to solve a problem—that’s really what the value proposition is.”
IoT platforms: IoT vendors will compete to be the destination for IoT platforms. The IoT supply chain has been moving toward more collaboration to provide development and design kits designed for specific use cases and industries. IoT development kits are sold more and more with bundled IoT could service offer. IoT cloud service providers offer and recommend hardware that is tested to work well with their platforms. IoT platform vendors will be narrowing their scope in 2019, honing in on specific use cases. Business professionals aren’t looking for one industrial IoT platform to manage every process going on at their company, they are instead looking for platforms that specialize in specific tasks.
New development kits: A new breed of development kits is incorporating the three tenets of IoT design — ease of use, security, and business value. The promise is that the design engineers don’t need to have specialized expertise in several areas like networking protocols or security-related tasks, enabling a much faster development time. One way to simplifying design work is by intelligently reusing the fundamental building blocks.
Security: Wireless IoT devices are considered a major threat to the security of industrial networks. A growing number of embedded systems are open to security threats as a result of increasing connectivity and IoT device adoption. And it’s costing OEMs a lot in terms of money and reputation. A 2018 Gartner Inc. survey found that nearly 20% of organizations surveyed experienced at least one IoT-based attack in the past three years. IoT security is already a 1.5 billion dollar market. The market research firm Garnet expects that global spending on IoT security will rise to $3.1 billion in 2021, up from $1.5 billion in 2018. It is not about the spending on IoT security products. Already “a significant portion of OEMs’ existing in-house labor cost is already dedicated to addressing security” and is rising faster than development costs. VDC pegs the worldwide embedded engineering labor spend related to security at $11.6 billion in 2017, representing nearly 8% of the overall cost of embedded engineering labor. There will be different kind of certification marks for IoT product cyber security – some mandated with laws on some countries and some voluntary. 5G is going to increase security risks. Do we understand the 5G security threats to come? Most probably not because we don’t seem to understand well even that 5G really is.
eSIM: The embedded SIM card has been spoken for a long time, and even the first smartphones in which the SIM card has been implemented with an integrated circuit have already been introduced to the market. Infineon has presented the world’s first industrially qualified eSIM. Of course, eSIM shares opinions. Many operators do not like it.
Infonomics and Data Broking: Last year’s Gartner survey of IoT projects showed 35 percent of respondents were selling or planning to sell data collected by their products and services.“Data is the fuel that powers the IoT and the organization’s ability to derive meaning from it will define their long term success,” This brings us to Social, Legal and Ethical IoT because“ Successful deployment of an IoT solution demands that it’s not just technically effective but also socially acceptable,” It is possible tha tIoT Firms Face a ‘Tidal Wave’ of Lawsuits.
IoT Governance: As the IoT continues to expand, the need for a governance framework that ensures appropriate behavior in the creation, storage, use and deletion of information related to IoT projects will become increasingly important. We also need to manage IoT devices to keep them secure and make sure that they do what they are supposed to do. A market for IoT managed services will develop to help manage and operate fragmented IoT assets. “The idea of managing the ongoing end-to-end life cycle of a connected product is becoming more important, and ultimately this managed service opportunity is going to need momentum in the coming year,”
New Wireless Technologies: IoT networking involves balancing a set of competing requirements, such as endpoint cost, power consumption, bandwidth, latency, connection density, operating cost, quality of service, and range. No single networking technology optimizes all of these.
Trusted Hardware and Operating System: Gartner surveys invariably show that security is the most significant area of technical concern for organizations deploying IoT systems. Today organizations often don’t have control over the source and nature of the software and hardware being utilised in IoT initiatives. “However, by 2023, we expect to see the deployment of hardware and software combinations that together create more trustworthy and secure IoT systems.
Home automation: Arm predicts that the intelligent home goes mainstream. In survey results they published two-thirds of respondents said technology became “more a part of my life” during 2018. Cisco Systems is saying connected homes will be a big driver for the Internet of Things. “Connected home applications, such as home automation, home security and video surveillance, connected white goods, and tracking applications, will represent 48%, or nearly half, of the total M2M connections by 2022, showing the pervasiveness of M2M in our lives,” Cisco states in its new white paper, Visual Networking Index: Forecast and Trends, 2017-2022. The market is starting slowly. Bundled IoT services will try to motivate a slow consumer market.
Smart cities: Cities are becoming smarter and smarter in an effort to improve efficiency in operations. Smart cities bring in both benefits and risks. Between smart lighting, traffic controls, and public transportation, smart cities are bringing in a whole new family of threat vectors. Cybercriminals will target smart cities with ransomware attacks. Smart cities need to take precautions.
Silicon Chip Innovation: “Currently, most IoT endpoint devices use conventional processor chips, with low-power ARM architectures being particularly popular. However, traditional instruction sets and memory architectures aren’t well-suited to all the tasks that endpoints need to perform,” New special-purpose chips will reduce the power consumption required to run a DNN. Very low power circuit designs are important in many applications. Battery-powered designs require complex optimizations for power in the context of area, performance and functionality. Devices that work without battery and gather operating power from environment are maybe even more challenging. Clearly, sensors are a big part of any connected device, and there is a lot of innovation occurring in this market that delivers new features — think AI — all housed in smaller packaging.
Open source: 2019 Will Be the Year of Open Source in IoT and embedded systems applications. From software and even hardware, we saw more activity in open source than ever before in 2018. And the momentum isn’t likely to slow down in 2019. Arduino is pushing strongly to IoT markets with MKR1000 series of IoT boards. Raspberry Pi is very widely used in IoT systems, especially on prototyping and small scale deployments

Why the Electricity 4.0 moment is here
The U.S. wastes 62% of its energy. Electrification and digitalization are here to fix that, according to Schneider Electric’s U.S. country president, Aamir Paul.
https://brand-studio.fortune.com/schneider-electric/why-the-electricity-4-0-moment-is-here/?prx_t=92MHA6pFTAoPEQA&ntv_ht=Qu05YgA
When you think about the major energy transitions of the 1800s and 1900s, it’s easy to focus on only one side of the story: the supply side. But Electricity 1.0 is not only the story of switching from domesticated livestock to domesticated electricity. Electricity 2.0 goes deeper than the migration from decentralized mill power to centralized power plants. And there’s more to Electricity 3.0 than replacing fossil fuels with green power.
The real story is what’s happening on the demand side. How do these new energy sources create value and spur innovation for end users? Is there reliable and accessible infrastructure at the point of consumption? These are the questions that determine whether energy transitions succeed.
To accelerate today’s energy transition to a net-zero future, we must therefore focus on solving for the demand side: our homes, buildings, data centers, industrial sites, and infrastructure. Above all, we should all consider what must change when these points of consumption also become points of generation.
For over a century, electrons have flowed one direction. What happens when we change that—when we generate and consume energy in the same place, at scale? Such a change is possible.
In a forthcoming study, the Schneider Electric Sustainability Research Institute will share modeling that estimates rooftop solar today could cover 40% of all U.S. electricity needs.
Let’s be clear: This energy transition is a systemic change, and solving it will require a systemic approach from grid to plug. It’s called Electricity 4.0, and it’s the synthesis of two mega-trends: electrification and digitalization.
Electricity 4.0 creates a virtuous cycle between energy cost savings and emissions reductions. Less carbon means less cost. In commercial buildings, energy costs account for an average of 30% of operating budgets. In data centers and other energy-intensive facilities, that number is often much higher. Energy waste has become one of the most avoidable drags on profitability, and digitalizing energy is how you seek and destroy it.

ndustrial and Commercial Markets Ripe for IoT Growth in 2022
Feb. 10, 2022
The Internet of Things will come into its own in 2022, with widespread adoption across new industries. Silicon Labs’ Ross Sabolcik, Vice President and General Manager, Industrial and Commercial IoT, shares his thoughts on what to expect.

Take a holistic view of modern production
https://www.etteplan.com/stories/take-holistic-view-modern-production?utm_campaign=newsletter-special-digitalization-2022&utm_content=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_source=apsis-anp-3&pe_data=D43445A477046455B45724541514B71%7C30613464
Modern production is made up of many different technologies and processes. Having Etteplan as your main partner can improve efficiency, safety, profits and shorten project lead-times.
“I had no idea you guys could do that, too.”
It’s a common refrain in modern production. You have a specific challenge, so you get a specific partner to help solve it. When a new issue arises, you find another partner. It is an understandable process, but not the most efficient.
“We like to take a holistic view,” explains Jari Luotonen, Senior Manager of Production Automation at Etteplan. “When we can see the big picture we can help optimize the whole end to end process of your production line, eliminating bottlenecks and increasing efficiencies from pre design to delivery.”
“Process visualizations and simulations are great tools in the pre-design phase to analyze possible options and to select the most efficient way to move to the engineering phase and finally to the process integration phase. Hence, risks are reduced, efficiency improved and project time is kept under control. Naturally we at Etteplan can be part of all these phases,” continues Luotonen.

Industrial companies around the world look for solutions to optimize business performance, increase productivity, and improve the user experience. But everywhere, there is a huge obstacle: heterogeneous equipment. Why is that a problem, and how to overcome it?
Equipment in any industry tends to be bought over a long period of time for various purposes from many vendors. This is a consequence of a natural evolution that everyone is used to. But this heterogeneity causes several problems.
“Heterogeneous equipment also means heterogeneous and incompatible IT architecture. This hinders possibilities to utilize newest digital innovations significantly and hurts productivity,” says Kari Jussila, Director of Business Development at Etteplan’s Cloud and Applications Business Unit.

Sähköverkkodata tuli teollisuuteen
https://etn.fi/index.php/13-news/13402-saehkoeverkkodata-tuli-teollisuuteen
HomeGrid Forum on järjestö, joka sertifioi datan siirtoon sähköverkossa käytettyjä G.hn-laitteita. Nyt järjstö kertoo sertifioineensa ensimmäisen teollisuuden IoT-sovelluksiin tarkoitetun sulautetun G.hn-moduulin. Moduulista vastaa saksalainen Teleconnect. GHN.SOM.PLC-moduuli on tehokas, pienikokoinen moduuli, oka voidaan asentaa yrityksen verkkoon jälkiasennuksena. Sen avulla voidaan toteuttaa MIMO-pohjainen teollisuuden G.hn-verkko sähkölinjoja pitkin.
- Koneiden välinen viestintä ja prosessiautomaatio edellyttävät enemmän kuin koskaan vakaata, kestävää ja nopeaa liitettävyyttä toimiakseen ja työskennelläkseen tehokkaasti ilman seisokkeja. Tuottavuuden, tehokkuuden ja turvallisuuden saavuttamisen on nojattava vahvasti ketterään ohjaukseen, itsekorjautuviin ominaisuuksiin ja teollisuuslaitteiden reaaliaikaiseen synkronointiin, sanoo HomeGrid Forumin puheenjohtaja Livia Rosu.

Renesas tuo uuden wifin teollisuuden laitteisiin
https://etn.fi/index.php/13-news/13401-renesas-tuo-uuden-wifin-teollisuuden-laitteisiin
Vuosi sitten sertifioitu Wi-Fi 6E -tekniikka on suunniteltu käyttämään 6 gigahertsin taajuutta yhdessä nykyisten 2,4:n ja 5 gigahertsin taajuuksien kanssa. Renesas aikoo hyödyntää uutta, nopeampaa wifiä teollisuuden piirisarjoissaan.
Nyt Renesas esittelee ratkaisuja, joissa Celenon radioita on liitetty sen omiin piiriratkaisuihin. Teollisuuden yhdyskäytävä on tästä hyvä esimerkki. Kyse on 8-ytimisestä (4 x Arm Cortex-A57 + 4 x Arm Cortex-A53), joka tukee laajasti teollisuuden liitäntöjä. Nyt alustaan on lisätty Celenon 6E-moduuli.
Toinen esimerkki on tuotantolinjoille tuotava optisen tarkastuksen ratkaisu, johon on lisätty Celenon WiFi5-moduuli. Se on tarkoitettu laitevalmistajille, jotka haluavat yhdistää testilaitteensa verkkoon 5 gigahertsin wifi-linkillä.
6E-linkeissä on testeissä päästy yli kahden gigabitin vakaisiin datanopeuksiin. Datanopeuden kasvu tulee suoraan siitä, että käytettävissä oleva taajuuskaista kasvaa niin merkittävästi. Alkuperäisellä 2,4 gigahertsin alueella wifin käytössä on 20 megahertsin kaista, ja 5 gigahertsissä saatiin 80 megahertsiä lisää taajuutta. WiFi 6E tuo käyttöön peräti 160 megahertsin kaistan. Verkon kantama on toki 6 gigahertsissä hieman pienempi kuin 2,4 gigahertsissä

Jos halutaan seurata vaikkapa dronen lentokorkeutta tai reitin korkeuseroja kuntoilussa, helpointa se on ilmanpainetta mittaamalla. Bosch Sensortech on nyt esitellyt anturin, joka mittaa ilmanpainetta 7,6 mikro-g:n tarkkuudella. Tämä vastaa tuhannesosaa hyttysen painosta. BMP581-anturi pystyy näin havaitsemaan vain muutaman sentin muutokset korkeudessa. Anturin virrankulutus on lisäksi äärimmäisen alhainen, joten se sopii käytettäväksi kaikissa puettavissa laitteissa, kuulokkeissa tai IoT-laitteissa.

Wireless Weather Station Gets Solar-Powered Supercap Upgrade
https://hackaday.com/2022/04/07/wireless-weather-station-gets-solar-powered-supercap-upgrade/
When [knight-of-ni] bought an Acurite Atlas weather station to replace his earlier 5-in-1 model, he was initally happy with its performance. However, after just ten months the batteries in the outdoor unit died; since the previous model would happily run for several years on one charge, this was a bit of a bummer. Climbing up on the roof more than once a year just to replace batteries was becoming inconvenient as well, so [knight-of-ni] designed a solar power system with supercap backup and remote monitoring that should keep the sensors running 24/7, come rain or shine.
The heart of the new power system is a pair of supercapacitors totalling 250 Farads, with an integrated protection circuit that limits the voltage to 5.4 Volts. The caps are charged by a 12 V solar panel; this means that quite a bit of power is dissipated in the protection circuit when the supercaps are fully charged, but since this is completely free solar power that is not much of an issue. A 6 V panel would have worked as well in full sunlight, but might have struggled on a cloudy or snowy day.

Wi-Fi MCUs Bring Greater Security to Cloud-Connected Apps
April 7, 2022
Sponsored by Texas Instruments: Thoroughly tested SimpleLink Wi-Fi wireless microcontrollers are used as the main host to enable cloud connectivity for high-performance or low-power, security-enabled IoT applications.
https://www.electronicdesign.com/technologies/communications/whitepaper/21237653/texas-instruments-wifi-mcus-bring-greater-security-to-cloudconnected-apps?utm_source=EG+ED+Connected+Solutions&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=CPS220330065&o_eid=7211D2691390C9R&rdx.ident%5Bpull%5D=omeda%7C7211D2691390C9R&oly_enc_id=7211D2691390C9R
Wi-Fi has pushed the boundaries of communication speed, range, and integration as capabilities like lower power and new protocol features boost the number of wireless applications. According to the Wi-Fi Alliance, nearly 18 billion Wi-Fi devices will be in use this year, and more than 4.4 billion devices will ship in 2022. Wi-Fi is commonly used in consumer, industrial, and enterprise applications to enable wireless connections between devices and the cloud.
With more people and things becoming connected than ever, Texas Instruments’ (TI) goal is to provide the freedom and flexibility to connect anything. If you’re developing a product with Wi-Fi connectivity, you need a reliable and tested Wi-Fi device to ensure that your product will connect in any environment.
That means fast speeds and reliable internet connection all of the time. TI has been one of the leaders in Wi-Fi solutions for embedded devices for more than a decade. Its product range of SimpleLink Wi-Fi chips and MCUs offer a wide range of choices and options. What’s more, TI Wi-Fi devices implement robust security features without any burden on the main MCU, enabling secure cloud-connected IoT applications.
Of course, when tech companies say your data is in the cloud, they mean it’s stored somewhere (in many somewheres, actually) on the internet, instead of locally on your computer. A network of web servers will find what you’re looking for and deliver it.
SimpleLink Wi-Fi wireless microcontrollers (MCUs) are used as the main host to enable cloud connectivity. All are proven, tested, and adaptable for high-performance and/or low-power, security-enabled IoT applications.

Alfa Network’s AHPI7292S HAT Brings Easy Wi-Fi HaLow Networking to the Raspberry Pi Family
Built around a Newracom SoC and a Qorvo radio front-end, this compact HAT offers long-range low-power Wi-Fi HaLow networking for the IoT.
https://www.hackster.io/news/alfa-network-s-ahpi7292s-hat-brings-easy-wi-fi-halow-networking-to-the-raspberry-pi-family-8eb08b9a3a61
The Alfa AHPI7292S board, brought to our attention by Linux Gizmos, is built around a Newracom NRC7292 system-on-chip, which includes Wi-Fi HaLow connectivity to the IEEE 802.11ah Draft 8 standard — that is claimed to be, in the words of Kevin Walsh writing for the Wi-Fi Alliance, “the IoT wireless standard offering the best combination of range, throughput, density, low-power operation, and deployment costs — not perfect, certainly, but pretty close.”
Running on the sub-gigahertz spectrum, between 750-928MHz, Wi-Fi HaLow is claimed to offer boosted range and better materials penetration than standard Wi-Fi, handles up to 80Mb/s throughput, offer support for 8,191 devices per access point, offers various power saving modes designed to boost the operational lifespan of battery-powered devices, and can be deployed alongside existing Wi-Fi networks without interference.
Alfa’s implementation, meanwhile, is designed with Raspberry Pi projects in mind.

Maersk kytki 385 tuhatta kylmäkonttia nettiin
https://etn.fi/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=13493&via=n&datum=2022-04-28_15:02:32&mottagare=30929
Valtaosa, jopa 90 prosenttia maailman kauppatavarasta kulkee meriteitse. Kansainvälinen merenkulkujärjestö IMO haluaa jäsentensä vähentävän vuosittaisia kasvihuonekaasupäästöjään ainakin 50 prosentilla vuoden 2008 tasosta vuoteen 2050 mennessä. Maersk-jättirahtaajan ratkaisu oli liittää 385 tuhatta kylmäkonttia esineiden internetiin.
Maersk kuljettaa usein kylmäkonteissa lämpötilaherkkää rahtia, kuten hedelmiä, vihanneksia, lihaa ja lääkkeitä. Näiden kylmäkonttien lämpötila vaatii jatkuvaa valvontaa. Mahdolliset pienetkin poikkeamat on korjattava nopeasti, jotta kuorma ei pilaannu.
Maerskin ja useimpien muiden alan toimijoiden haasteena on, että kylmäkonttien valvonta on monimutkaista ja vaatii manuaalista työtä sekä ulkopuolisten kumppaneiden apua. Tämä aiheutti usein viiveitä korjauksiin ja kasvatti kustannuksia.

The Suricata project consists on the development of a portable device that can be installed inside any house room, and it is able to measure the room temperature and humidity. These data can be shown via a screen on the device or accessed remotely via a mobile app. Besides temperature and humidity, the device may also be able measure light intensity, sound intensity and gases. The data should be acquired at regular intervals allowing for some statistics to be generated. The data can be stored on an SD card, or to a remote server, which can be the main unit in a domotics context. The communication protocols used are BLE and/or Wifi. The BLE is used to communicate with the mobile app and eventually with the main domotics unit. The Wifi is to communicate with the main domotics unit and to access cloud weather services for weather forecast. The last possible functionality is the capability to operate as a thermostat, i.e., to control an AVAC system.

Näin mitataan kehon toimintoja tarkasti
https://etn.fi/index.php/tekniset-artikkelit/13632-naein-mitataan-kehon-toimintoja-tarkasti
Teknologian kehityksen myötä elintoimintojen seuranta yleistyy eri toimialoilla ja jokapäiväisessä elämässämme. Tällaiset terveyteen liittyvät ratkaisut vaativat luotettavaa ja vankkaa tekniikkaa. Analog Devicesin signaalinkäsittelyyn kehitettyjen tuotteiden laajasta valikoimasta elintoimintojen seurantajärjestelmien suunnittelijat löytävät joukon ratkaisuja eteen tuleviin haasteisiin.
Elintoimintojen seuranta on ulottunut lääketieteellisen seurannan ulkopuolelle ja monille jokapäiväisen elämämme alueille. Alun perin elintoimintojen seuranta tapahtui sairaaloissa ja klinikoilla tiukassa lääkärin valvonnassa. Mikroelektroniikan edistys on johtanut valvontajärjestelmien kustannusten alenemiseen, mikä tekee näistä teknologioista helpommin saavutettavia ja yleisempiä sellaisilla aloilla kuin etälääketiede, urheilu, kuntoilu ja hyvinvointi sekä työturvallisuus.
Elintoiminnot
Elintoimintojen seurantaan kuuluu fysiologisten parametrien mittaaminen, jotka voivat antaa viitteitä henkilön terveydestä. Syke on yksi yleisimmistä parametreista, ja se voidaan havaita EKG:lla, joka mittaa sydämenlyöntitaajuutta ja ennen kaikkea sen vaihtelua. Muutokset sykkeessä perustuvat yleensä aktiivisuuteen. Unen tai levon aikana rytmi on hitaampi, mutta se yleensä kiihtyy fyysisen toiminnan, tunnereaktion, stressin tai ahdistuksen seurauksena.
Normaalin alueen ulkopuolella oleva syke voi olla merkki häiriöstä, kuten hidaslyöntisyydestä eli bradykardiasta tai takykardiasta, jolloin syke on liian korkea. Hengitys on toinen tärkeä elintärkeä merkki. Veren happitasoa voidaan mitata käyttämällä fotopletysmografiaa (SpO2) kutsuttua tekniikkaa. Huono hapetus voi liittyä sairauksien puhkeamiseen tai hengityselinten häiriöihin.
Muita tärkeitä elintoimintojen mittauksia, jotka voivat antaa viitteitä henkilön fyysisestä kunnosta, ovat verenpaine, kehon lämpötila ja ihon johtavuusvaste. Ihon johtavuusvaste, joka tunnetaan myös nimellä elektrodermaalinen vaste, liittyy läheisesti sympaattiseen hermostoon, joka puolestaan on suoraan osallisena tunnekäyttäytymisen säätelyssä. Ihon johtavuuden mittaaminen antaa viitteitä potilaan stressistä, väsymyksestä, henkisestä tilasta ja tunnereaktioista. Lisäksi kehon koostumuksen, vähärasvaisen massan ja rasvamassan prosenttiosuuksien sekä nesteytys- ja ravitsemusasteen mittaaminen antaa selkeät viitteet henkilön kliinisestä tilasta. Lopuksi liikkeen ja asennon mittaaminen voi tarjota hyödyllistä tietoa aktiivisuudesta.
Elintoimintojen mittaamisen tekniikoita
Elintoimintojen, kuten sykkeen, hengityksen, verenpaineen ja lämpötilan, ihon johtavuuden ja kehon koostumuksen seurantaan tarvitaan erilaisia antureita. Ratkaisujen on oltava kompakteja, energiatehokkaita ja luotettavia. Elintoimintojen seuranta sisältää:
– Optiset mittaukset
– Biopotentiaalin mittaukset
– Impedanssimittaukset
– Mittaukset MEMS-antureilla
Optiset mittaukset
Optiset mittaukset menevät tavallista puolijohdetekniikkaa pidemmälle. Tämäntyyppisten mittausten suorittamiseen tarvitaan optinen mittaustyökalupakki. Kuvassa 1 näkyy tyypillinen signaaliketju optisille mittauksille. Valonlähteitä (yleensä ledejä) tarvitaan tuottamaan valosignaali, joka voi koostua eri aallonpituuksista. Useiden aallonpituuksien yhdistelmä mahdollistaa suuremman mittaustarkkuuden. Myös sarja pii- tai germaniumantureita (fotodiodeja) tarvitaan muuttamaan optinen signaali sähköiseksi signaaliksi, joka tunnetaan myös nimellä valovirta.
Valodiodien tulee vastata valonlähteen aallonpituuteen riittävällä herkkyydellä ja lineaarisuudella. Tämän jälkeen valovirtaa on vahvistettava ja muunnettava, minkä vuoksi tarvitaan suorituskykyinen, energiatehokas, monikanavainen analoginen etuaste, joka pystyy ohjaamaan ledejä, vahvistamaan ja suodattamaan analogista signaalia ja suorittamaan analogia-digitaalimuunnoksen tarvittavalla resoluutiolla ja tarkkuudella.
Optisen järjestelmän koteloinnilla on myös keskeinen rooli. Kotelo ei ole vain elektroniikkaa varten, vaan myös järjestelmä, jossa on yksi tai useampi optinen ikkuna, joka voi suodattaa lähtevän ja tulevan valon ilman liiallista vaimennusta.
Biopotentiaalin ja bioimpedanssin mittaukset
Biopotentiaali on sähköinen signaali, joka syntyy kehomme sähkökemiallisen toiminnan vaikutuksesta. Esimerkkejä biopotentiaalin mittauksista ovat elektrokardiogrammi (EKG) ja elektroenkefalogrammi. Nämä mittaukset havaitsevat erittäin pienikokoiset signaalit taajuuskaistalla, jolla on useita häiriöitä. Tämän seurauksena signaali on vahvistettava ja suodatettava ennen käsittelyä. EKG-biopotentiaalimittauksia käytetään laajalti elintoimintojen monitoroinnissa, ja Analog Devices tarjoaa useita komponentteja tähän tehtävään, mukaan lukien AD8233, ADAS1000-perhe ja ADuCM3029.
Liikkeen mittauksia MEMS-antureilla
Koska MEMS-anturit voivat havaita kiihtyvyyden, niitä voidaan käyttää havaitsemaan aktiivisuutta ja poikkeavuuksia, kuten epävakaata kävelyä, kaatumisia tai aivotärähdyksiä. Niillä voidaan jopa tarkkailla asentoa kohteen ollessa levossa. Lisäksi MEMS-antureita voidaan käyttää täydentämään optisia antureita, koska ne ovat alttiina liikeartefaktien aiheuttamille häiriöille. Kun näin tapahtuu, kiihtyvyysmittarin tietoja voidaan käyttää korjauksen tekemiseen. ADXL362 on yksi suosituimmista lääketieteen liikeantureista. Se on 3-akselinen kiihtyvyysanturi, jolla on markkinoiden pienin energiankulutus. Sille on ominaista digitaalinen lähtö ja ohjelmoitava mittausalue välillä 2-8 g.
ADPD4000: Universaali analoginen etuaste
Tällä hetkellä markkinoilta löytyvissä puettavissa laitteissa, kuten älyrannerenkaissa ja älykelloissa, on erilaisia toimintoja elintoimintojen seurantaan. Yleisimpiä ovat sykemittarit, askelmittarit ja kalorilaskurit. Usein mitataan myös verenpainetta ja ruumiinlämpöä sekä elektrodermaalista aktiivisuutta, veren tilavuuden muutoksia (fotopletysmografian avulla) ja muita mittareita. Seurantavaihtoehtojen määrän kasvaessa tarve pitkälle integroiduille elektronisille komponenteille kasvaa. ADPD4000-piirissä on erittäin joustava arkkitehtuuri, ja se luotiin auttamaan suunnittelijoita vastaamaan tähän tarpeeseen. Se voi hallita fotometristä etuastetta ja ledejä, ja lukea valodiodeja biopotentiaalin ja bioimpedanssin lukemien lisäksi.

Bittium esittelee messuilla mobiilin IoT-ratkaisunsa
https://www.uusiteknologia.fi/2022/05/30/bittium-esittelee-messuilla-mobiilin-iot-ratkaisunsa/
Oululainen suunnittelutalo Bittium esittelee tänään alkaneilla Hannoverin teollisuusmessuilla uuden mobiiliverkkojen Cellular IoT Solution -ratkaisun, joka tarjoaa liitettävyyden pilveen mobiilipohjaisille IoT-laitteille. Uutuutta esitellään Hannoverin lisäksi kesäkuun puolivälissä nürnbergissä järjestettävillä Embedded World -messuilla.
Hannoverin messuilla demottava Cellular IoT Solution -ratkaisun avulla voidaan päivittää myös markkinoilla jo olevien IoT-laitteiden 2G- tai 3G-liitettävyyden 4G- tai 5G-liitettävyyteen tai integroida 4G/5G-liitettävyyden uusiin kehitettäviin IoT-laitteisiin.
Ratkaisun avulla voi poistaa Bittiumin mukaan tarpeet erilliselle IoT-laitteiden ja pilvipalveluiden välissä olevalle yhdyskäytävälaitteelle (gateway). Sen kautta on tyypillisesti tarjottu liitynnät paikallisiin langattomiin tai langallisiin yhteyksiin.
Bittiumin ratkaisu on modulaarinen ja toimii IoT-laitteen modeemimoduulin sisällä. Cellular IoT Solution -ratkaisun avulla mikä tahansa IoT-laite pystytään yhdistämään pilvipalveluun, jonka ohjelmistoa ja näin myös laitteen toimintaa pystytään nopeasti mukauttamaan ilman että tarvitsee muokata itse laitteen ohjelmistoa.
Messuilla nähtävässä demonstraatiossa on partneriyrityksenä piilaaksolainen Edge Impulse, joka markkinoi ML-kehitysalustaa sulautettujen laitteiden koneoppimiseen. Yrityksen toinen perustajista on Oulussakin laajalti vaikuttanut Zach Shelby, joka toimi myös aikanaan ARM:n teknologiaguruna.
