Data formats designed to facilitate communications between radio frequency identification (RFID) systems and smart RFID tags with integral transducers (sensors and actuators) are introduced in this standard. New transducer electronic data sheet (TEDS) formats for smart RFID tags, based on the IEEE 1451 family of standards, are defined. Also, a comprehensive command set for smart RFID tags is defined. Keywords: network capable application processor (NCAP), radio frequency identification (RFID) tag, sensor command, sensor integration, sensor interface, sensor standard, smart RFID tags, transducer electronic data sheet (TEDS), transducer interface module (TIM).

Understanding of basic phenomena connected with electromechanical properties of solid materials. Overview of electromechanical (piezoelectric, ferroelectric, electrostrictive) properties of materials representing different classes of solids (pure piezoelectrics, ferroelectrics, ferroelastics and higher order ferroics, crystals, ceramics, composites, thin films, and so on) and macroscopic description of how their electromechanical features relate to other macroscopic properties.

Optical communication using optical fibres as the transmission medium is essential to handling the massive growth of both telecom and datacom traffic. To fully realize the potential bandwidth available on these optical fibres, other components of the optical network system have to be developed, ranging from detectors and multiplexers to buffers and switches. This book addresses the different technologies which can be applied to switching optical signals.An optical switch functions by selectively switching an optical signal delivered through an optical fibre or in an integrated optical circuit

The research trend in the automotive domain is clearly moving from mechanically controlled to computer assisted systems for both vehicle handling and comfort functions. Driver Assistance Systems (DAS), originally integrated to decrease the cognitive load and to increase the comfort for the driver, cause additional workload and stress for the driver, and as a consequence may distract from the main activity of driving and lead to traffic accidents. Andreas Riener studies the influence of implicit interaction using vibro-tactile actuators, invisibly and unobtrusively embedded into the car seat, as additional sensory channels for car-driver feedback, and pressure sensor mats, integrated into the seat for implicit information transmission from the driver toward the vehicle. The results of the experiments, e.g. implicit driver identification or activity recognition, vibro-tactile activity notification, motivate to use both vibro-tactile notifications and pressure sensor images to improve vehicle handling performance and to decrease the driver’s cognitive workload.
