Making a splash: robust barometric pressure sensors
Until now, many barometric pressure sensors have not been resistant against liquids and thus it has been challenging to integrate them into waterproof products. To address this issue, Bosch Sensortec developed the BMP384, a robust barometric pressure sensor delivering market-leading accuracy in a compact package.
Wireless M-Bus gateway for reporting data from sensors
Webdyn has announced that it is launching a new gateway, based on Wireless M-Bus technology, to autonomously collect data from Wireless M-Bus meters or sensors. The W M-Bus point-to-point radio protocol using 868Mhz is traditionally used in Smart Metering and Smart Buildings, particularly for its relatively moderate consumption.
