Abstract :
This article introduces the IEEE 1451 standard for networked smart transducers. It discusses the concepts of smart transducers, IEEE 1451 smart transducers, the architecture of the IEEE 1451 family of standards, application of IEEE 1451, and example implementations of the IEEE 1451 standards. In conclusion, the IEEE 1451 suite of standards provides a set of standard interfaces for networked smart transducers, helping to achieve sensor plug and play and interoperability for industry and government.
