A major artifact of the Internet of Things is Sensor devices. These types of event-driven equipment can range dramatically from a relatively "dumb" temperature sensor that may transmit an ID followed by an environmental value on a fairly constant basis, to sophisticated analysis sensors that not only detect movement, but combine with the distribution of light sensitivity, accelerometer movement (otherwise known as tilt or gesture analysis) and even radar movement assessment providing an advanced fusion sensor architecture that does not just rely on one integrated sensor but consolidates all of sensors together to make more intelligent assessments.
Over the past few years, we have encountered most of these types of sensors and even a collection of more obscure sensing devices. A common sensor now that is often integrated with Oracle Event Processing is the Sensor Platform for Oracle Technology (SPOT). This kind of Oracle sensor...
