Tutorial Intro

To provide interoperability between devices a new field of studty was proposed combine the IEEE 1451 Family of Standards with Web of Things (WoT)

WoT describes the functionality, interaction patterns, and security model of a device (the “thing”) using a standardized format. Developers or systems can consume this description to interact with the device over the web in an interoperable way, using its properties, invoking actions, or listening for events.

Getting Started

To achive this interoperability goal a new IEEE 1451 Ontology is being develop. It will allow to stract information from the TEDS defined in the IEEE 1451 Standards.

In this tutorial will be presente how to parse the data from the TEDS to JSON-LD allowing to communicate using searialized data with linked data over the Internet.

Get started by learning and playing with the IEEE 1451 WoT.

What you'll need

This is based on the IEEE 1451 Family of Standards

IEEE 1451.0 - IEEE Standard for a Smart Transducer Interface for Sensors and Actuators - Common Functions, Communication Protocols, and Transducer Electronic Data Sheet (TEDS) Formats IEEE 1451.0-2024

IEEE 1451 Ontology - Development of new proposed ontology IEEE 1451 Ontology

WoT - Web of Things WoT

Play with Liked Data TEDS

  • Four mandatory TEDS are available with filds and hints:

    • Meta TEDS
    • Transducer Channel TEDS
    • User's Transducer Name TEDS
    • Physical TEDS (PHY TEDS)
  • Combining the TEDS and other IEEE 1451 elements with WoT IEEE 1451 WoT:

    • Calibration TEDS
    • Frequency Response TEDS
    • Transfer Function TEDS
    • Text-based TEDS
    • Commands TEDS
    • Identification TEDS
    • Geographic Location TEDS
    • Units Extension TEDS
    • End User Application Specific TEDS
    • Manufacturer Defined TEDS
    • Security TEDS
    • Time Synchronization TEDS
