The IoT always starts with a sensor

The Internet of Things (IoT) always starts with a sensor. After all, things cannot capture states or carry out actions unless they are fitted with sensors. These two activities and a connection to the web are what make these objects ‘intelligent’ without the help of humans.

Bestech provides KELLER pressure sensors, a key partner when it comes to implementing IoT solutions. Applications include alerting emergency services when flooding is imminent or when a bridge’s structural health is compromised.
