NEWTON, MA — (Marketwire) — 06/01/12 — Thousands of engineering professionals are expected next week — June 6-7 at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, IL for the 2012 Sensors Expo & Conference. Attendees will have the opportunity to see the newest technologies for sensors and sensors-related industries from over 150 exhibitors, attend over 60 technical education sessions and hear from industry experts and innovators who will deliver keynote addresses.
“We have a great event planned for our attendees and exhibitors. From our keynote speakers from SENSEable City Laboratory and ARM to our largest exhibitors including ROHM, Epson, Texas Instruments, Freescale, Analog Devices and PCB Piezotronics, our attendees will find wonderful opportunities to learn and network,” said Wendy Loew, Group Show Director. “Sensors are the building blocks of many technologies including Energy Harvesting, Big Data & Cloud, MEMS, Wireless and more, and we are excited to continue to be the venue where these foundations are showcased.”
On Wednesday, June 6 from 9-10 am, attendees will have the opportunity to hear from Associate Director of SENSEable City Laboratory. As a research group, SENSEable City, explores the “real-time city” by studying the increasing deployment of sensors and networked hand-held electronics, as well as their relationship to the built environment. Biderman will deliver the Day One keynote presentation and present a view of the role sensors and other data capturing methods can play in making new connections between people and the built environment as a way to address some of today-s more pressing urban challenges.
On Thursday, June 7 from 9-10 am, , Director of Embedded, ARM will deliver the Day Two Keynote Willard Tu will discuss the idea of connecting billions of products to the internet. This keynote examines the trends in Sensors, Networks, and Software, the catalysts that will bring about the Internet of Things. These three elements have revolutionized smartphones, mobile computing and soon industrial, medical, security, and other embedded applications.
: Sensors Expo & Conference identifies the latest sensing technologies throughout the exhibit floor with new product announcements, key technology focused areas, such as the Energy Harvesting Pavilion, MEMS Pavilion, Big Data & Cloud Pavilion, and Wireless Pavilion, as well as a showcase of hundreds of products and services. Silver Sponsors of the event are Epson Electronics America and ROHM Semiconductor who will join hundreds of other industry leaders including Texas Instruments, Analog Devices, Libelium, TDK Group, Sensirion, Hoffman & Krippner, HBM, Inc, PCB Piezotronics, and more.
