METHODS AND ARRANGEMENTS FOR SENSORS

摘要

Generally, smart sensors, logic to process messages from smart sensors, and smart sensor systems are described herein. Embodiments may comprise logic such as hardware and/or code to communicate events as messages via a messaging system to post the messages to a messaging account. The messaging system may be a texting service like Twitter™ that captures the messages and then re-broadcasts the messages, e.g., immediately as a tweet or a cellular text message. In some embodiments, the smart sensor comprises a communications module with a Twitter™ application program interface (API) on a communications platform with a software/hardware framework to interconnect with one or more pluggable monitors with sensors.;In other embodiments, the communications module may be integrated with one or more monitors. Further embodiments comprise a smart-device, which can provide status updates and event notifications to a user.

1. At least one computer-readable storage media having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by a system, cause the system to:
receive via a user interface of the system a user-defined custom event and one or more e-mail accounts associated with the user-defined custom event; receive sensor data from one or more sensors of the system; detect a sensor event based at least in part on a comparison between the sensor data and the user-defined custom event; and communicate with one or more messaging systems to transmit an email to the one or more e-mail accounts associated with the user-defined custom event.
