In collaboration with ON Semiconductor and with original design manufacturer Geniatech, Arrow has developed the MuSeOn 1.1 solution for industrial workplace safety, an on-line multi-sensor wearable device based on ON Semiconductor's RSL10 sensor development kit.
Device features
This platform builds the RSL10, the lowest-power Bluetooth 5 radio SoC in the industrial field, and includes five industrial-grade sensors to measure, detect and identify changes in environmental conditions.
It is integrated with local wireless and cloud services that allow companies to monitor their work environments in real time, in order to maintain and improve security levels for employees.
As well as being extremely energy efficient, ON Semiconductor's RSL10 incorporates an on-board processing core, various peripherals, integrated power management and a large internal memory.
"MuSeOn 1.1 represents an end-to-end solution that provides real-time information on workplace conditions. Combining the data collected with the cloud analytics capabilities provided by Arrow's IoT ecosystem will help improve workplace safety, ensuring compliance with safety policies and protecting workers from risk," said Aiden Mitchell, vice president IoT Arrow Electronics.
Remote monitoring and protection of workers
MuSeOn 1.1 operates as a series of sensors for air quality and its humidity, pressure and temperature, allowing the wearer's activity to be analysed, as well as enabling indoor navigation and positioning. There is also a wide-range ambient light sensor and an omnidirectional digital stereo microphone. MuSeOn 1.1 has a dual RFID interface and is housed in an IP65-type enclosure.
Arrow Electronics, Geniatech and ON Semiconductor designed the multisensor device and its firmware. Arrow also provides industrial gateways based on the Geniatech IoT Developer Board 4, which are critical for integration with leading cloud platforms.
The combination of the powerful data analysis capabilities of these platforms with the high quality sensor data and long battery life of MuSeOn 1.1 generates a highly effective solution for remote monitoring and protection of operators with minimal load on users.
