Beyond pure sensing: IEEE 21450 in digitalization of the development cycle of smart transducers.

The IEEE 21450 standard family [1] has been developed to ease the use of smart transducers in various applications. The transducer electronic datasheet (TEDS) defined in the standards provides descriptions of the sensor and actuator channels in terms of physical quantities, data representation, measurement range, uncertainty, calibration, etc. Consequently, such electronic datasheets can be seen a...
