Abstract
A sensor system includes: one or more master sensors; a plurality of slave sensors; and one or more servers. The one or more master sensors wirelessly send data to the plurality of slave sensors. The plurality of slave sensors acquire environmental and/or industrial process data based on associated configurations of the plurality of slave sensors. The plurality of slave sensors wirelessly send the environmental and/or industrial process data to the one or more master sensors. The one or more master sensors send the environmental and/or industrial process data to at least one of the one or more servers over a wireless network.
Claims21
A sensor system, comprising:
- one or more master sensors;
- a plurality of slave sensors;
- and
- one or more servers,
- wherein the one or more master sensors are configured to wirelessly send data to the plurality of slave sensors,
- wherein the plurality of slave sensors are configured to acquire environmental and/or industrial process data based on associated configurations of the plurality of slave sensors,
- wherein the plurality of slave sensors are configured to wirelessly send the environmental and/or industrial process data to the one or more master sensors, and
- wherein the one or more master sensors are configured to send the environmental and/or industrial process data to at least one of the one or more servers over a wireless network.
A sensing method for a sensor system comprising one or more master sensors, a plurality of slave sensors, and one or more servers, the method comprising:
- wirelessly sending data from the one or more master sensors to the plurality of slave sensors;
- acquiring environmental and/or industrial process data by the plurality of slave sensors based on associated configurations of the plurality of slave sensors;
- wirelessly sending the environmental and/or industrial process data from the plurality of slave sensors to the one or more master sensors;
- and
- sending the environmental and/or industrial process data from the one or more master sensors to at least one of the one or more servers over a wireless network.
