Sensors 2015 to feature three new preconference symposia
Sensors Expo & Conference will celebrate 30 years of focusing exclusively on sensors and sensor-integrated systems when it convenes June 9-11 in Long Beach, CA. This year’s event will feature three new preconference symposia, each offering a deep dive into specific sensing technologies and solutions.
Symposium 1: Enabling Smart Systems Through Sensor Fusion
Gain a detailed insight into the MEMS/sensors industry’s perspective on what sensor fusion is and how it applies to different markets and applications. Case studies including consumer, health/wellness, automotive, and industrial will be presented. Discussions will touch upon how these applications are feeding into and enabling not only smart systems but also a smart IoT.
Symposium 2: Energy Harvesting for Powering Wireless Sensors in the IoT
Get an improved understanding of how to match energy-harvesting technology to specific applications, the importance of the energy/power budget, the current status of available technologies, and specific technology direction from industry leaders. Through explanation of the design-in requirements for existing energy harvesting products in real-world applications, you will gain tools to consider in the design of their next-generation sensor systems.
Symposium 3: IoT: The Final Frontier for Embedded
Find the technical and market knowledge and tools needed to create an IoT value proposition and products for successful entry into these new markets. Gain industry insight and expert knowledge on the current state of the IoT market, future technology trends, efforts in connectivity standards, and various hardware enablement platforms to accelerate proof of concept designs.
