AUTONOMOUS AND COMMUNICATING INTEGRATED SENSOR
REMOTE AND WIRELESS MEASUREMENT
EFS is developing connected sensors that are essential, for example, to improve control (servoing, regulation) or monitoring (predictive maintenance, data collection) of production equipment in Industry 4.0.
The difficulty often consists in implementing reliable measurements, in a very demanding industrial environment and at low cost. This is why, faced with this difficulty, many developments stop at the Proof of Concept step.
The expertise of technologies in sensors, autonomous power supplies, radio transmissions, and also the great knowledge of the environments, requirements, industrial standards allow EFS to quickly move from the Proof of Concept to the high-performance industrial product.
