Smart sensors
Human survival on earth is impossible without the sensory organs
Nature endowed man with a sensory system vital for his existence
The receptive field of the human sensory organs is limited
Sensors extend the human receptive field beyond the limits of the human
sensory organs
Sensors tell us what is happening in the environment that surround us
Sensors play major role in industrial, medical and environmental observation and
monitoring

Smart sensors
Early sensors were simply measuring devices
Modern sensors integrate ICT capabilities leading to the emergence of family of
sensors known as smart sensors
Smart sensors can capture, store, process, transmit and communicate
information in formats comprehensible to humans
Advances in nanotechnology are helping produce more miniaturized and
multipurpose sensors for both medical, industrial and environmental applications
Smart sensors have revolutionized our perception of the world in which we live
and better understanding of our body behavior
Connected objects in their various forms and applications are in large party
based on smart sensor capabilities

DATA (FACT)

INFORMATION
KNOWLEDGE
INTELLIGENCE (WISDOM)
Data
Sensory stimuli perceived through our senses
Signal readings from sensors
Set of discrete facts
Metric (having value and unit of measurement)
Example: The temperature is 40 °C
Hierarchical, object and relational data models, data warehousing, etc
9
Information
Comes from providing context to data
Fact that has been given meaning
Example: The temperature of my body is 40 °C
Data warehousing, dimensional data modeling, business intelligence, etc
10
Knowledge
Is a concentration of information on a subject matter
Comes from appropriate collection & analysis of information
Example: The normal human body temperature is 37 °C, the temperature of my
body is 40 °C
knowledge can also be created through the synthesis of known information
Example: The temperature of my body is higher than normal
Can be gained from experience
Artificial intelligence, expert systems, etc
11
Intelligence
Makes use of knowledge to create value through correct and well-informed
decisions
Involves having the application and contextual awareness to provide strong
commonsense judgment
Example: I should see a doctor because my body temperature is higher than
normal
Data warehousing, dimensional data modeling, business intelligence, etc
Decision support systems, human support, system automation, etc

Harnessing sensor Intelligence
Smart Devices Explosion
Billions of smart devices (particularly Smart phones) have been sold and many
smart phone based applications and services are being developed
4G mobile broadband
High band connectivity is widely available, particularly in urban areas, with faster
4G broadband services being introduced
Cloud Computing
Cloud-based technologies are providing ever-increasing data storage, processing,
aggregation, visualization, and sharing capabilities
Social media network
Social media gives us a mechanism to collate data from sensors, to share data
and to derive information from the data among Internet communities

Health Care Systems
The convergence of sensor and ICT technologies is giving people the capacity to
generate information about their health and well-being, participate in the
management of their own healthcare with their clinicians and allow them to control
and exploit information about them
BASN
Body area sensor networks is the fundamental basis for the mobile healthcare
systems (mHealth systems). Sensing, social networking, smartphones, and
connectivity will have a profound effect on medicine.

Harnessing sensor Intelligence
The French artificial Experiment
The same tiny sensors that measure air pressure
and altitude in an airplane or satellite are also in
the artificial heart
Thanks to the latest electronic sensor technology
used in guided missiles, the heart can also
respond instantly to changes in blood pressure
and flow and adapt the heart beat rate accordingly
The device could save millions of lives and beats
almost exactly like the real thing using electronic
sensors to regulate heart rate and blood flow
This should allow the device to respond immediately if the patient needs more or less blood
19
Harnessing sensor Intelligence
Data mining
The adoption of data mining, particularly pattern-matching and machinelearning techniques, will help unlock the hidden patterns and
associations in sensor data. These trends could give us the first glimpses
of collective intelligence.

The Internet of Things
The IOT is rapidly becoming a reality.
Advances in ICT technologies have
made possible the connection of more
and more devices to the Internet.
Sensors play a key role in connecting
the physical world (temperature, C02,
light, noise, moisture, etc) with the
digital world. The success of IOT will
be driven by applications that deliver
tangible improvements to people’s
everyday lives
Sensors provide the data streams
upon which these applications can
be built. As the value and impact of
these new wave of applications are
realized, the need for both improved
and new sensor technologies and
more applications and services will
grow
Continuous miniaturization of
sensors and low-cost systems on
chips (SOCs) will continue to fuel
future development of IOT
This is leading to a new wave of applications that have the potential to
dramatically improve the way people live, learn, work, and entertain
themselves.
