For the 18th time, the editors of Elektronik let their readers choose the “Products of the Year”.

The ELEPHANT sensor platform from embedded brains is one of 10 nominated favorites in the embedded design category.

Economical radio: The sensor platform ELEPHANT is a flexible basis for radio sensor nodes based on a STM32 controller. Power can be supplied by different harvesting modules. A universal connection for the sensor technology makes the system modularly expandable. The use of the “Contiki” operating system, which is designed for sensor networks, makes it possible to use a large number of ready-made software components and a wide variety of protocols with which measured variables such as temperature, humidity, brightness, magnetic fields, air pressure, moisture or radiation can be recorded.
