Omron expand capability of USB multi-function Environmental Sensor for the IoT, samples available from Anglia
Omron Electronic Components Europe has introduced a USB multi-function Environmental Sensor that quickly allows designers to monitor seven parameters, the capability of the multi-function sensor has now been expanded with the release of Android & iOS smartphone App’s that allow users to access the sensor outputs in real time giving designers additional tools to help with product development and integration.
The Omron 2JCIE-BU01 has multiple sensors housed in a compact USB dongle with built-in memory and Bluetooth connectivity through beacon communication. Omron’s Environmental Sensor USB unit measures just 14.9 x 29.1 x 7.0mm and can monitor temperature, humidity, light/UV Index, barometric pressure, noise, 3-axis acceleration and air quality (equivalent eTVOC gas). Monitoring of environmental factors such as air quality is becoming increasingly important, long term exposure to air pollution can cause respiratory diseases and is also linked to an increased risk of exacerbated effects from other respiratory conditions such as COVID-19.
2JCIE-BU01 USB Sensor
Despite its compact size, the 2JCIE sensor feature embedded memory for data logging to keep track of the surroundings. The embedded memory in the sensor unit can accumulate data for approx. 3 months (based on a communication frequency of once every 5 mins) and connect to multiple devices, such as smartphones, via Bluetooth 5.0.
Data from the modules can be downloaded over Bluetooth (BTLE) allowing designers to easily access recorded data. The 2JCIE Environmental Sensor is cloud compatible with no need for additional hardware. Bespoke threshold values can be set to provide alerts that notify the user of any abnormal sensor readings.
Certified for all required regulations/directives in the EU, US and Japan, the 2JCIE range is FCC approved and CE marked. The BTLE link has a range of approximately 10m and the sensor has an operating temperature between -10°C and +60°C.
The 2JCIE sensor from Omron are suitable for many potential applications including monitoring and controlling both industrial and office environments to improve the work space. It is also suitable for in home applications.
