These are the front face of the IoT ecosystem. Sensors collects inputs and actuators performs the actionable outputs. Sensors act as a nerve system, collecting data about temperature, moisture level, light intensity, gas presence, distance, humidity, motion, smoke, proximity etc.
Based on the input data, the controller performs the desired actions like sound an alarm, open a gate, turn on the sprinklers, turn on/off the lights, alert the security, and many more. Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) is used to control the flow of voltage to regulate or control a device. Relays are used as switch to turn things on or off; open or close a door. The possible combinations are almost unlimited.
All our IoT gateway products currently supports more than 110 sensors in 36 categories. These sensors are capable of measuring almost all types of environment variables and can give you an accurate reading of almost anything you want to measure. With this type of information, we are in a unique position to determine what to do with actuators or output to smart living.
