Aggregating data from industrial or environmental systems can require costly data logging or acquisition devices. With micro-miniaturization or MEMs technologies, sensors can be populated on small form factor Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs). Included on these PCBs are System on Chip (SoC) microcontrollers. Combining sensors and SoC microcontrollers, PCBs can provide an approach to aggregating data from industrial and environmental systems.

This online conference talk will present an approach to obtaining data from industrial and environmental systems using an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense board, Communication Terminal software, and sensor programming techniques.
