Wireless sensor and virtual prototype

Hello All,
Can anyone help me with this?:
1. What type of wireless sensor can i place on an object (e.g a door) such that if i move the physical door, i can see it move in the virtual model and in the same direction (eg. x, y, z).
2. Also, if i move the door in the virtual model, i want the sensor to give a trigger.
3. I need a sensor network for this. Who has information about any sensor that can help with this?
Demmy

Hi Demmy,
We don't specifically offer any wireless sensors but for your application a 3-axis accelerometer would be appropriate. To make it wireless you could use a WLS-9205 with a 250 kS/s sampling rate or the WLS-9215 with 100kS/s/ch. The 9215 has fewer channels but the higher sampling rate.
As for the trigger, you will want to set up an analog trigger in software using the DAQmx Trigger VI.
Hope this helps!

  • Nike + wireless sensor and shoe sensor

    does anyone know how long the battery on the sensor lasts for and when it does run out can you place it or do you have to spend £19.99 for a new Nike + pack.
    whats the best way to maintain the battery on the sensor as well as it doesnt say on the booklet or online.
    thanks runners

    The battery is rated to last about 1,000 hours when the kit is in use. (Most of the time, the kit will be idle, at which time the drain on the battery is negligible.)
    If there will be long periods between your runs (several days or weeks), you can put the sensor to sleep. To do that, following the instructions here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303934#faq10
    The battery is not replaceable, so you'll have to buy a new kit when the current sensor's battery finally dies. But presume you run an hour a day, every day. The means you will get about 2 and half years out of the battery before it dies. At £19.99, the cost to you is only about £0.019 per day! Not a bad little investment!

  • Wireless sensor networks and virtual lab

    Hi all
    i am a new to wireless and virtual lab . i would like to build a virtual lab in wireless sensor networks where in all the configurations .. ie hardware conf would be done and across the internet i can shd be accessing the virtual lab and performing operations like . on / off of sensors .. etc
    can any one let me know the steps in which the same can be performed

    Hello ayaym,
    That is a pretty broad description.  You may need to narrow down your questions to be more specific.
    It seems like you are doing 2 things.  One is create a wireless network.  Two is access that network over the internet.
    1.  Wireless, there are numerous commercial wireless technologies.  Wireless ethernet, Wi-Fi, proprietary protocol wireless boxes.  Zigbee, wireless HART, bluetooth.  Etc.......  What makes the most sense would be determined by how these sensors would be connected in a wired world.  Then look at the common factors and whether you can adapt all the devices to a common wireless system.  For instance, if it's ethernet, you could add in wireless ethernet routers.  If it is RS-485 or RS-232 serial protocol, they also make ethernet boxes that would turn these into to remote virtual ports.
    2.  Internet connectivity.  Labview has remote panels and web publishing that would allow remote access to the front panels of running VI's.  It is just a matter of allowing those communications to occur in a secure way.  A Virtual Private Network might be required.  Other remote desktop software tools could work.

  • Can I use more than one blue-tooth device at the same time on IPhone 4S? Like a wireless headsets and speed and cadence sensor for cycling computer, receive the data and listen music simultaneously

    Can I use more than one blue-tooth device at the same time on IPhone 4S? Like a wireless headsets and speed and cadence sensor for cycling computer, receive the data and listen music simultaneously

    As long as the profiles are different (ex. HID vs AD2P) you will not have any issues. But say if you try to use 2 keyboards at once, it won't work. Or 2 headsets at once. Your scenario seems fine.

  • IPS and Virtual Sensors

    Hello.
    I am looking to put in an IPS. I would like to monitor two segments, but read this in the docs...
    "To avoid definition ordering issues, no conflicts or overlaps are allowed in assignments-you assign interfaces, inline interface pairs, inline VLAN pairs, and VLAN groups to a specific virtual sensor so that no packet is processed by more than one virtual sensor."
    Say I have two virtual sensors and subnets A and B. My question is that packets from segment A will go thru virtual-sensor1, but may (depending on routing) need to pass thru the VLAN pair of virtual-sensor2 to subnet B. Judging from above, this is not possible, since it says the packet can only be seen once. Please advise if I am interpreting the docs correctly.
    Any suggestions or insight is appreciated! Thanks!

    Ah, okay; just to clarify... What they are speaking of is when the packet goes thru the IPS the first time, it stays in one virtual sensor during it's "session" thru it and is should not processed by any other virtual sensor.
    If the packet reenters the IPS on a different interface pair (ie; virtual sensor) then that is OK.
    Thanks for the reply!

  • Wireless mouse and keyboard won't connect.

    I have a windows 7 computer and a wireless keyboard and mouse which connect to one usb receiver.
    I was on the computer and suddenly both my mouse and keyboard stopped working.
    The mouse lights up a red light but doesn't work. The computer says it can't recognize the receiver.
    The usb receiver doesn't have a connect button. Perhaps the button is a sensor type, but it doesn't seem to make a light turn on.
    Perhaps it doesn't work because i touched it with my foot. Please help

  • Drivers for over the air programming for labview in wireless sensor network

    Hi all ,
    In my earlier post, I had requested for information regarding the drivers for Wireless sensor network( WSN) in Labview. I was successfully able to configure my WSN using Labview. thanks to all for the support and help.
    However I have a new querry now. I have developed a WSN testbed with more than 1 mote and more than 1 sensor. all the motes  are spread out and they communicate with the base mote. the base mote is connected to the gateway and the gateway is connected to the PC where labview and moteview are installed.
    Now I need to confure the motes ( ie load a software on the mote which is not connected to the PC) . Is it possible with labview ?
    I mean does labview support this kind of a structure .? Say for ex i have a mote with id = 10 and that mote is one hope away from the base mote ? can i still configure that mote remotely ?
    thanks!

    Hey anilhk,
    When you say "load the software on the mote" do you mean actually reflashing the firmware on the sensor? If so, there is currently no functionality for this in the Crossbow driver. LabVIEW is certainly capable of doing this, but in order to get the functionality, you may have to program it yourself. The Crossbow driver source code is available to view and using the programming documentation from Crossbow you could make modifications to the driver for your own use.

  • My Mac wireless keyboard and mouse won't reconnect

    My Mac wireless keyboard and and mouse one day disconnected and I can't  reconnect. They have new batteries.

    Hi Saint Anne,
    Happy Thanksgiving Day!  Since both of your wireless input devices are not working at the moment, do you have a wired mouse you can use to straighten this out?  Here are some troubleshooting steps to try:
    Wireless Connection issue
    Make sure Bluetooth is turned on
    First, choose Apple () menu > System Preferences > Bluetooth and confirm that Bluetooth is turned ON.
    The Bluetooth menu bar icon should turn:
    Black if Bluetooth is turned ON and no devices are connected.
    Light grey with three dots if Bluetooth is ON and at least one wireless device is connected.
    Light grey (or disappear completely) if Bluetooth is turned OFF, or if the iMac is unable to communicate with the Bluetooth module.
    Refer to the Bluetooth Menu Icon table below for more information on determining the Bluetooth status. If the Bluetooth icon does not appear, or if the menu bar status continues to indicate that Bluetooth is off, restart your computer and then attempt to turn Bluetooth ON again.
    Bluetooth OFF
    Bluetooth ON and connected to wireless device
    Bluetooth menu icon
    Bluetooth status
    Bluetooth turned on, but there are no devices connected to the Mac. See the "Make sure the wireless mouse or keyboard is turned on" section of this article.
    Bluetooth turned on and at least one wireless device is connected.  See the "Make sure the wireless mouse or keyboard is turned on" section of this article.
    When this icon flashes, at least one wireless device has a low battery. Click the Bluetooth icon to identify the affected device, then replace the batteries.
    Bluetooth is off. Click the Bluetooth icon using a USB mouse and select "Turn Bluetooth On". Note: Mac OS X won’t allow Bluetooth to be turned off unless a USB mouse is connected.
    Bluetooth offline. Restart your Mac. If the Bluetooth status doesn’t change, disconnect all USB devices and restart your Mac again.
    Make sure the wireless mouse and keyboard are turned on.
    Mouse
    Slide the On/Off switch on the bottom of your mouse to turn it on. Note: If the battery compartment cover is not installed properly the On/Off switch may not function correctly or may be difficult to operate. Remove the battery compartment cover and carefully reinstall it.
    When your mouse is on and paired, and the batteries are charged, the indicator light glows steadily.
    If your mouse isn’t paired with a Mac, the indicator light will blink, indicating your mouse is in discovery mode and ready to pair.
    If the indicator light doesn't illuminate, check to make sure you have two good batteries and that they're installed correctly. 
    Keyboard
    Push and release the On/Off switch to turn on the Apple Wireless Keyboard.
    When your keyboard is on and paired, and the batteries are charged, the light will glow steadily for several seconds, then turn off.
    If your wireless keyboard isn’t paired with your Mac, the indicator light will begin to blink. This indicates your keyboard is in discovery mode and ready to pair with your Mac.
    If the LED doesn't light up, remove the batteries to make sure they're good and that they're installed correctly. 
    Check preferences
    From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences, then choose Bluetooth from the View menu. The Bluetooth preferences pane will list the Bluetooth devices paired with the computer, the status of the devices (paired or connected), and whether Bluetooth power is on or not.
    Click the gear icon and choose "Connect" to connect a device that is powered on.
    To set up a new device, click the + icon and follow the Bluetooth setup assistant.
    If the Mouse System Preferences pane is open and no wired or wireless mouse is connected, your Mac will immediately start looking for a wireless mouse (with Mac OS X v10.6.  For Mac OS X v10.5, the Setup Assistant should open).
    Keyboard or mouse intermittently stops responding
    Click the mouse
    Click the mouse once to reconnect it with your Mac. It may take a moment for the mouse to respond.
    Check the battery level of the mouse. Choose System Preferences from the Apple (), then choose Mouse from the View menu. The battery level indicator is in the lower-left corner. Replace the batteries if they are low.  Note: Choose Keyboard & Mouse from the View menu with Mac OS X v10.5.  For more information on keyboard and mouse battery levels in Mac OS X v10.5, see Desktop computers: Troubleshooting wireless keyboard and mouse issues.
    Press a key on the keyboard 
    Press a key on the keyboard to reconnect it with your Mac. It may take a moment for the keyboard to respond.
    Check the battery level of the keyboard. Choose System Preferences from the Apple (),  then choose Keyboard from the View menu and select the Keyboard tab. The battery level indicator is in the lower-left corner. Replace the batteries if they are low.
    Check for signal interference
    Wireless networks that operate on 2.4GHz may cause interference.
    Move cordless phone base stations, microwave ovens, and other 2.4GHz electrical devices away from the Mac if you suspect interference.
    Keep wireless devices within 10 meters (33 feet) of the Mac.
    Avoid putting metal objects between the device and the Mac.
    Mouse doesn't scroll up or down or side to side
    For mice that have a scroll ball, refer to How to clean your Mighty Mouse.
    Check the Scrolling speed slide-control at the top, and make sure the “Scroll” checkbox is checked.
    For scrolling side-to-side, make sure the application you’re using supports side-to-side scrolling.
    Remember, scrolling is done with one finger, and navigating is done by swiping side-to-side with two fingers.
    Navigating moves from page to page in a document or internet browser unlike scrolling.
    Mouse does not track as expected (jittery, jumpy, slow, fast).
    The Apple Wireless Mouse can be used on most smooth surfaces, however if tracking issues occur try these options:
    Choose System Preferences from the Apple () menu, then choose Mouse from the View menu. Set the Tracking slider to adjust how fast the pointer moves as you move the mouse.
    Try using a different surface to see if the tracking improves.
    Turn the mouse over and inspect the sensor window. Use compressed air to gently clean the sensor window if dust or debris is present.
    If multiple Bluetooth wireless devices are in use nearby, try turning them off one at a time to see if the issue improves. Bandwidth intensive devices could affect tracking.
    Mouse buttons do not work as expected.
    The Mouse preference pane allows users to customize the mouse features to meet their needs.
    Choose System Preferences from the Apple () menu, then choose Mouse from the View menu. Set the Tracking slider to adjust how fast the pointer moves as you move the mouse.
    Try using a different surface to see if the tracking improves.
    Turn the mouse over and inspect the sensor window. Use compressed air to gently clean the sensor window if dust or debris is present.
    If multiple Bluetooth wireless devices are in use nearby, try turning them off one at a time to see if the issue improves. Bandwidth intensive devices could affect tracking.
    Keyboard has one or more keys that do not respond. 
    Use the Keyboard Viewer to test whether the keyboard keys are responding correctly when they are pressed.
    Choose System Preferences from the Apple () menu, then choose Language & Textfrom the View menu (or International from the View menu in Mac OS X v10.5 or earlier).
    Select Input Sources.
    Select the Keyboard & Character Viewer checkbox.
    Enable the input source for the keyboard layout you are testing by selecting the checkbox next to it.
    Make sure that "Show Input menu in menu bar" is enabled.
    Choose Show Keyboard Viewer from the Input menu in the menu bar, as shown.  
    The Keyboard Viewer shows the keyboard layout.
    Type the key on the keyboard that doesn’t respond and observe whether the corresponding key highlights on the Keyboard Viewer. If it does, that particular key is functioning correctly. In the sample shown above the shift and command keys are being pressed.
    If the mouse keys feature in the Universal Access System Preferences pane is enabled, many of the keyboard keys may not respond as expected.
    Try starting up into single user mode to determine whether a software issue is causing the issue.
    Cheers,
    Judy

  • Can AirPort Extreme join a wireless network and share the connection to ethernet connected devices?

    Can AirPort Extreme join a wireless network and share the connection to ethernet connected devices?

    Yes, if the AirPort Extreme is joining a wireless network that has been created by another Apple router. In this case, it will be extending the wireless network and the Ethernet ports are enabled on the "remote" AirPort Extreme.
    No, if the AirPort Extreme will be used with another router from another manfacturer.
    Ironically, the less expensive AirPort Express can do what you ask about with virtually any wireless network using a special feature called ProxySTA. It won't extend the wireless with a non-Apple router, but the Ethernet port will be enabled.

  • Wireless modem and Airport Express.. one at a time

    Recently my internet provider upgraded my old plug in modem to a newer wireless model. Now it seems that the current setting allow communication with only one or the other at the same time. If I want to be online with the wireless modem and send my iTunes music via Airport Express to my sound system, no dice. I have to either click on the modem up in the Airport choices to be online and listen to iTunes through the computer speakers, or go offline to listen to music through the sound system and Airport Express.
    I'm sure I'm just missing something in preferences or settings somewhere.
    Can someone point me in the right direction?
    Thanks, and Happy New Year!

  • How to Install Physical and Virtual Host

    I am getting licensing issues after I installed Essentials 2012R2 on a physical machine and then used the same license to virtualize it.  It's saying my physical machine needs to hold all the FSMO roles in which my virtual machine is hosting those roles.
    I read that Microsoft allows you to use the Essentials license for the physical and virtual server.  Is that correct? 
    Is there a specific service I need to remove on the physical machine in order for these errors to stop?  I still have the Windows Server Essentials Experience service installed. Is that what needs to be removed?
    Thanks,

  • The Difference between Extending a Wireless network and WDS?

    I have an Extreme (n) and an Express (n).
    I want to make sure the signal is strong upstairs and share a printer (connected to the express) and use AirTunes. I also may add an external drive to the Extreme.
    What's the difference between Extending a Wireless Network and using WDS? Will there be a speed difference?
    Message was edited by: J. Christopher Edwards

    I think you don't get it
    If I have another draft N router that operates at 2.4G and I have only n devices I can still use WDS and it will connect using draft n in the 2.4G band.
    If one g device connects to the network will go in mixed mode.
    The AEBS will still report 130 Mbps for your n clients and 54 for your g clients.
    If the other router is g only obviously you can't connect between the two router at n mode but still the AEBS will be in mixed mode and not in g. The Extreme will still report 130 Mbps for the connected n clients.
    I can tell you that because I have actually implemented it am not taking off the documentation.
    The same device if I try to use the "extend n network" does not even see the AEBS but will happily keep the n in the WDS mode and though the bandwidth is halved it is still more than g.
    In any case enough for this!
