A networked smart sensor system for gripper of robots

Abstract

The IEEE 1451 standards define a set of common communication interfaces to standardize the connectivity of sensor to microprocessor, instrumentation systems, and networks. This paper adopts the idea of the IEEE 1451, and develops a networked smart sensor system using an embedded microprocessor system for grippers of robots connecting to Internet, which will meet the needs of remotely monitoring and controlling robots using the embedded Web server technology.
