The objective of this project is to develop a smart
transducer interface standard, where a transducer is defined as a sensor or an
actuator. This standard is intended to make it easier for transducer
manufacturers to develop smart devices and to interface those devices to
networks, systems, and instruments by incorporating existing and emerging
sensor- and networking technologies. There are four working groups, each
addressing a different area:
·
P1451.1 - Common object model for smart transducers along with interface
specifications for the components of the model. Published as IEEE 1541.1-1999.
·
P1451.2 - Smart transducer interface module (STIM), a transducer
electronic data sheet (TEDS), and a digital interface to access the data.
Published as IEEE 1451.2-1997.
·
P1451.3 - Digital communication interface for distributed multidrop
systems. In progress.
·
P1451.4 - Mixed-mode communication protocol for smart transducers. In
progress.
