STMicroelectronics Showcase IoT Technologies
STMicroelectronics, highlighted the energy-saving and convenience benefits of "Smart Buildings" with numerous demos using the latest IoT (Internet of Things) semiconductor technology at SEDEX 2016.
ST's vision of the Smart Building offers a glimpse into a future urban life that manages and uses energy throughout the building more efficiently by utilizing state-of-the-art semiconductor technology. At the same time, this technology provides a superior security, convenience, and comfort. Building on the foundation of the STM32 Nucleo 32-bit microcontroller development board and a range of STM32 X-Nucleo expansion boards, which are equipped with sensors, connectivity ICs, motor drivers, security ICs, and power supplies, many smart-building applications were shown by ST at SEDEX 2016. These applications included NFC-based parking authentication, smart lighting control with ToF (Time-of-Flight) sensors, a smart door with face recognition, and room-temperature control with voice commands that are enabled by MEMS microphone technology.
